The Vikings 2022 Offense by the Numbers: After Week 6
Dustin Baker

The Minnesota Vikings have six games in the books in 2022, with a 5-1 record heading into the bye week.
First-year head coach Kevin O’Connell won for a fifth time, thanks to the best defensive showing of the season to date and some timely offensive plays from Kirk Cousins, Dalvin Cook, Justin Jefferson, Adam Thielen, and Irv Smith. Next up, the Vikings rest on the bye, with eyes locked on the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8.
The Vikings are early 6.5-point favorites at home against the Cardinals, who embarrassingly lost in Week 6 to the Seattle Seahawks, 19-9. Arizona plays on Thursday Night Football this week, hosting the New Orleans Saints.
