One permanent lineup change the Vikings must make
USA TODAY Sports

The Minnesota Vikings have many things going right of late. 

The one area that has continued to be a problem is the running game. Only Las Vegas, Cincinnati, and Tampa Bay average fewer rushing yards per game than the Vikings. 

However, there may be an easy fix for this on the roster.

Ty Chandler looks explosive when on the field. Against the Broncos on Sunday Night Football, Chandler has taken 10 carries for 73 yards. Included in that, is a huge 4th down conversion that resulted in a big gain. 

The running back out of North Carolina also caught 4 passes for 37 yards against the Broncos. 

Alexander Mattison had a decent game as well, but Chandler just seems to have "juice" that Mattison doesn't. The receiving ability is an added bonus that Chandler brings when on the field. 

Coming into SNF, Chandler led the team in yards per attempt, albeit in a small sample size. That lead will only extend after Chandler's big night in Week 11.
