Live: Vikings trail Bills in second half of ugly ‘Monday Night Football’ matchup

The Minnesota Vikings are hosting the Buffalo Bills in a prime-time “Monday Night Football” showdown at U.S. Bank Stadium today that could prove pivotal as they approach the NFL trade deadline at 3 p.m. Tuesday. So far, the story remains the same for the Vikings. Their defense is elite, but the offense is struggling. Carson Wentz, starting in place of injured starter Kyler Murray (hamstring) , was 7-for-20 for 75 yards with three turnovers through three quarters. The Vikings trail 13-6 entering the fourth. On the other side of the ball, Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores is doing his part against Bills QB Josh Allen , the 2024 MVP. Cornerback Byron Murphy Jr. intercepted Allen in the first quarter, and the Vikings have sacked him four times through three quarters. Advertisement Allen still threw a 25-yard touchdown pass just before halftime that’s the difference in the game. You can watch the Vikings-Bills game on ESPN. It can be heard on the radio at KFAN.
