    It was a picture-perfect start for the Vikings in a big-time game against the Detroit Lions. The Lions got the ball to start the game, but after a couple of penalties and good Minnesota defense — Dan Campbell attempted his famous fake punt. The Vikings’ special teams sniffed that out perfectly, and they had the ball in Detroit territory.

    Two plays later, Aaron Jones takes the ball 34 yards for a Vikings’ score. Minnesota handed Jones the ball to the left, and the entire Detroit defense went right, and nobody was in a position to stop Jones. Rookie cornerback Terrion Arnold was the only one who could’ve made a play, but he wasn’t in position.

    Jones was questionable all week due to a hamstring injury, but this carry showed that Jones looked pretty good. Minnesota will take an early 7-0 lead over their in-division rival.
