This. It wasn't a "bad Vikings defense". They had a lot of injuries last year; those guys are back, and they've made some quality additions. And they're coached by one Mike Zimmer. The Bengals offense performed well against one of the better defenses they'll face this year. And if they can stay healthy, they'll only get better.
This was, no doubt, a game that they would have lost over the last couple of years. That they found a way to win is a significant step forward. Enjoy it.
GO STRIPES!!!
