The Buffalo Bills offense leaned heavily on running back James Cook in the second half to break through the stout Minnesota Vikings defense and help secure a 23-6 win.

Cook ran for 107 yards on 31 carries, and his five-yard touchdown midway through the fourth quarter effectively sealed the game.

Vikings quarterback Carson Wentz, who started for the injured Kyler Murray, completed just 8 of 25 passes for 81 yards and 2 interceptions. His 8.9 passer rating was the worst mark of any signal-caller over the last three seasons, according to TruMedia.
