Vikings PFF grades on defense in Week 2 vs. Eagles

The Minnesota Vikings are a frustrating team this season. They have averaged nearly 6.0 yards per play, but seven turnovers have cost them in an 0-2 start, especially against the Philadelphia Eagles when they lost 34-28.

The Vikings performance against the Eagles was marred with turnovers, with all four fumbles costing them greatly.

The grades from Pro Football Focus are in and paint a picture of an offense ready to take the league by storm and a defense that can stop the pass.

The Vikings offense had some solid grades. Here are the Pro Football Focus grades from the Vikings defense on Thursday.
