Current State of Affairs for the Minnesota Vikings

I don’t know if I have ever been less inspired by a 3-0 start than I have been this NFL season. I love the Vikings, and want nothing more than for this team to succeed. The narrative of our incredible, potentially historic defense and our deflated, stagnant offense has pretty much run its course already. […]
