Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Are You Looking Forward To The Game This Week?
It seems like there is at least half the people that visit here who want to see KAM and KOC fired based on my rudimentary perusal of the comments in the 12/02 News and Links post. I said in that post that I did not think it is going to happen. I still feel that […]
2025 NFL Week 14: Washington Commanders at Minnesota Vikings
Two of the NFL’s most disappointing teams in this 2025 season are set to meet this Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium as the Minnesota Vikings will play host to the Washington Commanders in Week 14 NFL action. 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 […]
Commanders at Vikings: First Injury Report
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.

Vikes Views: Rooting for Wins or Better Picks?
The Minnesota Vikings are no longer in the playoff hunt. The team is breaking in their new QBs and it’s not gone as planned. We’ve reached the point where the age-old argument starts. Do you root for the team to win over the next five weeks, or do you actually want to see the Vikings […]
Minnesota Vikings Odds: Vikings Slight Home Favorite Against Commanders
It will be a battle between two of the NFL’s most disappointing teams this Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium when the Minnesota Vikings play host to the Washington Commanders. Given the way that the early betting lines have flip-flopped, it’s hard to say who the sharps view as the bigger disappointment. When the folks from […]
Minnesota Vikings News and Links: The Wagon Is Off The Trail
The competitve part of the season is pretty much over and was over before the Seahawks game. Nothing that happened in that game is that big of a deal to me including the 4th down play that resulted in the pick six. The team would only have a 11% chance of making the playoffs if […]

Vikes Views: Nincompoop of the Week – Vikings at Seahawks
The Minnesota Vikings went into Seattle to face the Seahawks, and it couldn’t have gone much worse. I won’t say it can’t get worse—because we all know it always can—but that was ugly.

Vikings Waive WR Adam Thielen
Ahead of Sunday’s 26-0 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, the Minnesota Vikings made wide receiver Adam Thielen a healthy scratch. On Monday, they made a move that, just a few months ago, would have been unthinkable. The Vikings have just announced that they have waived Adam Thielen, putting a period at the end of what […]
Everything Ends Badly, Otherwise It Wouldn’t End
It wasn’t supposed to be like this. Sure, the Minnesota Vikings weren’t going to go 14-3 again after the run they had in 2024, but surely they were going to be a solid contender again in 2025, weren’t they? That’s what yours truly, and a lot of other people, thought going into this season. The […]
Vikings Shut Out for First Time In Eighteen Years in Loss to Seahawks
With the news that quarterback J.J.
