Vikings Get Much Needed Win Over Jaguars

The Minnesota Vikings (7-6) earned a much needed win over the Jacksonville Jaguars (2-11) 25-16 this afternoon in the Sunshine State. It was just Minnesota's second win in the last eight games after starting the season with five straight victories.

With just three games remaining, the Vikings are still hard-pressed to secure a playoff spot, but needed today's win to even have a chance.

Head coach Mike Zimmer made his return to the sidelines after missing last week's game due to emergency eye surgery.
