The Minnesota Vikings put a defensive clinic against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday afternoon, and the performance of the corner Isaiah Rodgers was worthy of registration books.
Rodgers became the first player in the NFL history to register a pick-six, a loose ball returned to a touchdown and two loose balls forced in a single game, while the Vikings exploded to the Bengals, 48-10, to pass to 2-1 in the year.
Here is the fun part: Rodgers did everything in the first half.

Rodgers, whom the Vikings acquired as a free agent, eliminated Jake Browning, who will probably be the head of the Bengals in the future while Joe Burrow needs surgery to repair the finger of the standard foot suffered in the victory of last week over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The ball was inclined by security Harrison Smith, and Rodgers saw daylight after ensuring interception. Rodgers dropped to 87 yards along the left lateral line to add six points to the total of the Vikings when they began to increase the score.

Then, in the second quarter, Rodgers tracked the wing noah Fant and hit the ball of his hands. Rodgers reacted quickly, recovering the ball and backing 66 yards on the other way for another touchdown.
Before the first half came to an end, Rodgers added another forced loose ball to his statistics line, this time taking him out of the gloves of the star receptor J’Mar Chase and recovering it. There was also a time when Rodgers kept a touchdown with individual coverage against Tee Higgins.

The Vikings entered the locker room with an advantage of 34-3 after the first half, and added a couple for a good measure in the second half too.
Carson Wentz, replacing quartback with JJ McCarthy Hurt, was 14 of 20 for 173 yards with two touchdowns, while Jordan Mason ran for 116 yards with two touchdowns in just 16 hauls for Minnesota.
Winged winged TJ Hockenson and Josh Oliver had a Wentz touchdown pass in the victory.

This can only be the first defeat for the Bengals this season, but taking into account to what extent they need Browning to arrive before Burrow is eligible to return, it makes this first game as the team’s full -time headline in the Quarterback.
