From the article

The Vikings really managed to limit Gibbs in their two games last season, and as a result, the rest of the Detroit offense was a bit limited. Gibbs is one of the best running backs in the league, and if they can slow him down again and keep the Lions behind the chains on later downs, it will help the Vikings' defense even more.

Vikings' defensive game plan targets slowing Gibbs to limit Detroit's offensive firepower.

The Vikings limited Gibbs in both matchups last season, constraining the rest of Detroit's offense as a result. Gibbs is ranked among the league's best running backs, but slowing him down and keeping the Lions behind the chains on later downs is identified as the Vikings' defensive priority in this Week 8 matchup.
