In a 16-10 victory over the Indianapolis Colts, Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray showcased his versatility by running for a 35-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. Despite the Vikings finishing the game as the only undefeated team in the NFL, coach Kevin O'Connell is concerned about their scoring output, which ranks 23rd in the league.

The upcoming schedule, featuring high-scoring opponents Detroit, Green Bay, and San Francisco, suggests that the Vikings may need to improve their offensive production if they want to maintain their undefeated record.
