Vikings beat Jaguars 25-16, stay in NFC postseason hunt
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The Minnesota Vikings feel as if they’re back in the playoff picture.
The Jacksonville Jaguars seem to be counting down the days until the season is over.
Although both teams looked mostly lost the past two months, the Vikings used a trip to Jacksonville to gain some much-needed confidence and maybe even turn around a season that went awry after a 5-0 start.
“We needed this one,” receiver Adam Thielen said.
