The passing defense however. So far this year, and I know it’s still not half over, but the passing defense has made a big jump. Last year the Vikings passing defense QB rating was 107.6. So far this year it is an 86.1. A 21.5 jump down in passer rating. No other team has a higher change so far. Now, we have not played the Packers or the Bears yet, and I expect this to change (go up). As of now however, the passing defense has improved. Some not so random stats for the passing defense so far this year.
