What happened: Minnesota is the only undefeated team left in the NFL, per The Athletic, even though its offense ranks near the bottom of the league in most meaningful statistics. The Vikings beat the Indianapolis Colts 16-10 on Sunday for their sixth straight win.

Why it matters: The record has come with a defense carrying the load, which puts Minnesota at the center of the question of whether a defense-first team can win a championship. The Vikings hold the No. 1 seed.

By the numbers: Vikings: 6-0, six-game win streak, No. 1 seed. Last game: 16-10 win over Indianapolis (Oct. 25).

What to watch: Minnesota is among the teams linked to Colts RB Jonathan Taylor ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline.
