Vikings/Cowboys Game to Remain on Sunday Night Football
In a bit of a mild surprise, the National Football League has decided to keep a game that has just about no playoff implications in a prime time slot this week.

Accelerated Reader and J.J. McCarthy’s 2025 Season: A Comparison
I’ve never played the sport of football at a high level. I’ve never really played the sport of football at what you’d consider a medium level. Like a lot of folks, I’ve spent a lot of time watching football over the course of my life and would like to think that I’ve learned a few […]
Vikings Accomplish Feat That Hadn’t Been Done In 33 Years
I mentioned this in my post-game recap of the Minnesota Vikings’ 31-0 victory over the Washington Commanders in Week 14 action, but I figured it was significant enough to warrant its own highlight. By pitching a shutout on Sunday afternoon, this Vikings team became the first team in 33 years to follow up getting shut […]
Defense, McCarthy Lead Charge in Shutout Win Over Commanders
Last Sunday, the Minnesota Vikings hit the lowest of lows in a thoroughly embarrassing loss to the Seattle Seahawks. On Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium, they were just about as far away from that as they could possibly be. J.J. McCarthy had, by far, the best game of his young NFL career, and the Minnesota […]

Washington Commanders at Minnesota Vikings: First Quarter Recap and Second Quarter Discussion
We’re through the first quarter of play at U.S. Bank Stadium, and your Minnesota Vikings lead the Washington Commanders by a score of 7-0.

Where’s the Fire?
Where is the fire for this Minnesota Vikings team? Where is the passion? Why don’t the players seem to be as pissed off as the rest of us? I have to admit, to people, in everyday conversation, that the Vikings suck this season. There isn’t a viable argument I can make to the contrary. I […]

Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Will You Watch The Game Tomorrow?
The “debates” are already on fire and we have not even made it to Christmas. Man, I thought the team would be more successful. The lack of success (i.e., wins) is always the bottom line. Development of players is tough because patience is indeed a virtue. But that is hard to sell and buy. Be […]

Vikes Views: Who Ya Got? Commanders at Vikings
The Washington Commanders will visit our Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. The two teams are out of playoff contention and are playing out the string.

These two teams combined for 26 regular season victories in 2024, and the Commanders advanced to the NFC […]
Reflections on Rock Bottom
As a Vikings fan, declaring any situation “rock bottom” is always a perilous proposition. This is, after all, a franchise that once “missed” a draft pick, becoming a subject of national ridicule, and had its stadium roof collapse, serving as a perfect symbol of a terrible season. Coincidentally, that same year saw a head coach […]

The Washington Commanders and Minnesota Vikings issued their first injury reports ahead of their Sunday matchup at US Bank stadium. Here they are: Minnesota Vikings For the Vikings, Donovan Jackson remains a non-participant, which makes his availability on Sunday questionable at this point.
