Monday Night Football: Bills wear down Vikings, 23-6

The boos were loud and long in Minnesota . . . and they were deserved.The Bills wore down the Vikings, winning 23-6 to move to 7-1. The Vikings lost their second consecutive, falling to 6-2. They have not scored more than 16 points in their past three games.The Vikings were downright inept on offense Monday night, gaining 178 yards on 46 plays, with nine first downs, three turnovers and five punts. They were 0-for-8 on third down and 0-for-2 on fourth down.Carson Wentz was no better than Kyler Murray, and in fact, had one of the worst quarters a quarterback has ever had in the third quarter. Wentz went 0-for-4 with two interceptions in the third quarter and should have had a third pick on a pass that Terrel Bernard dropped after it hit him between the numbers. Wentz finished 8-of-25 for 81 yards with two interceptions. Justin Jefferson caught three of 11 targets for 58 yards and was visibly frustrated.The Vikings' field-goal drives covered 9 and 46 yards, with Will Reichard hitting from 43 and 53 for the team's only points.Max Brosmer may have won the job by going 6-of-7 for 58 yards before the Vikings turned it over on downs at the Buffalo 13 on their final drive.The Bills gained 399 yards on 79 plays, wearing down the Vikings' defense by possessing the ball for 42:32. James Cook ran for 107 yards and a touchdown on 31 carries; Josh Allen was 21-of-31 for 234 yards with one touchdown and one interception; and eight players caught at least one pass, including tight end Keleki Latu, whose first career touchdown covered 25 yards.Tyler Bass was perfect again, making kicks from 39, 25 and 52 yards and running his streak to 24 in a row.
