PFF Grades and Data: Everything you need to know for every Week 18 game (Minnesota Vikings @ Detroit Lions: For the Vikings to secure a crucial victory in this matchup, containing Jahmyr Gibbs will be essential after his dominant performance in Week 7. Gibbs torched Minnesota for 116 rushing yards and two touchdowns, including 74 yards after contact and eight missed tackles forced. Those figures remain the highest single-game totals by any running back against the Vikings this season. On the outside, Lions rookie cornerback Terrion Arnold steps into a challenging role with Carlton Davis sidelined. Arnold has logged a league-high 351 snaps in man coverage this season, a heavy workload that has resulted in six defensive pass interference penalties, second only to D.J. Reed. His task this week? Slowing down Justin Jefferson, who leads the NFL with nine defensive pass interference calls drawn and averages 24.5 yards per reception against man coverage. The matchup could play a pivotal role in determining the game's outcome.): https://www.pff.com/news/pff-grades-and-data-everything-you-need-to-know-for-every-week-18-game
