Can Kyler Murray fix the 31st-ranked Vikings passing offense?
The Minnesota Vikings are 2-0 and heading to Tampa Bay to face a desperate 0-2 Buccaneers team — and the only crisis in Minnesota is Kevin O’Connell’s 31st-ranked passing offense. While Brian Flores’ defense plays like the ’85 Bears on a budget, the offense can’t crack 200 yards through the air. Kyler Murray returns from […]
Vikings Make Several Roster Moves Ahead of Buccaneers Game
Ahead of tomorrow afternoon’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Minnesota Vikings have made a handful of roster moves that we will get you caught up on here. First, the Vikings have signed punter Johnny Hekker to the 53-man roster. Hekker was added to the practice squad earlier this week and will handle the […]
Minnesota Vikings Week 3 Rune Reading
A Quick Synopsis The Minnesota Vikings are going into Week 3 with two major victories over divisional opponents. Hopefully, after Sunday’s matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, our favorite football team is 3-0.

SB Nation Reacts Results: Ugly Win Gives Vikings Fans Big Confidence Boost
The Minnesota Vikings’ 9-3 victory over the Chicago Bears in Week 2 wasn’t exactly one that anybody would put in the Louvre as far as its beauty is concerned, but it was effective enough to get the Vikings to 2-0 on the young season, as well as put them at 2-0 in the NFC North […]
Vikings Emerge as Early Favorites to Win the NFC North
In what seems like a long time ago already, but still only two weeks ago, the Minnesota Vikings were projected to finish at the bottom of the NFC North and had the longest odds to win the division at +550 or so just prior to the start of the season. But after a 2-0 start […]

Week 3 Preview: A Desperate and Dangerous Opponent
The Minnesota Vikings are on the road again in Week 3, traveling to Tampa Bay to face a desperate and dangerous Buccaneers team. They are desperate because, at potentially 0-3, they face only about a 3% chance to recover and make the playoffs. And it’s only that high because the Houston Texans managed it last […]
Why Sunday Is the Hockenson Game
The Minnesota Vikings face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3, and Tyler Forness reveals a surprising key to victory that nobody saw coming — T.J. Hockenson. With Kyler Murray back under center and Brian Flores’ defense dominating, the Vikings’ path to 3-0 hinges on an unexpected weapon. On this episode of The Real Forno […]
Week 2 Old Friend Update: How former Minnesota Vikings fared last week
Maybe I’m just speaking for myself, but I do like to keep tabs on former Minnesota Vikings players across the league. And so as a result, here’s a look at how former Vikings fared in Week 2 (if I missed someone, feel free to leave it in the comments and I’ll amend it posthaste): Detroit […]

Writer’s note: Hey all. I meant to get this out sooner, but I’ve been swamped with work (I’m working Panthers-Browns this weekend), and I’ve been sick besides. My apologies. Hello again, sports fans. We’re back with another season of putting together a weekly consensus power ranking for the Vikings. Raise your hand if you’re here […]
Vikes Views: Who Ya Got? Minnesota Vikings at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Minnesota Vikings sail into Tampa Bay to take on the Buccaneers this week. After a very competitive loss against the Bengals in Week 1, the Buccaneers lost to the lowly Cleveland Browns. Tampa will be looking to turn around their luck against the 2-0 Vikings. The Viking offense has not looked great, as some […]
Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Three In A Row?
The win vs the Bears in those conditions was what the team needed. They were fortunate to get the punch out on the goal line for sure. But that was a well timed punch so it was just not blind luck. A little luck though. If the Bears score, I am not sure the offense […]
The Nonsensical J.J. McCarthy Trade Rumors Have Started
If you haven’t noticed, there has been quite the rash of injuries at the quarterback position around the National Football League.

Week 2 Observations: A Messy but Satisfying Win
The Minnesota Vikings won a hard-fought but ugly 9-3 victory over the Chicago Bears on a wet, messy Soldier Field Sunday to move to 2-0 in the young 2026 season. They’ve now won seven straight on the road against the Bears; better yet, that puts them 2-0 in the NFC North (and NFC) in the […]
Vikings/Buccaneers Coverage Map: More Limited Viewing in Week 3 Late Window
The Minnesota Vikings will once again be relegated to the late afternoon window in Week 3, and because of that the area where you’ll be able to view them live on over-the-air television is a bit more limited than it has been over the first couple of weeks of the season. The folks from 506 […]
Vikings Add Johnny Hekker, Jaret Patterson to Practice Squad
On Tuesday, the Minnesota Vikings made a couple of practice squad moves, at least one of which points to a potential issue with the club’s special teams unit.
