loss
Well, it was bound to happen to somebody. It’s difficult to win the Super Bowl and it’s just as difficult to go winless in a season. It has happened to Detroit before and it looked like they might be on that path again in the first season of 17 games. You just don’t want it […]
Have you heard this one before? The Vikings play a close game overcoming a deficit in the 4th quarter only to lose due to a few flukes and a few missed opportunities. How about this one? The Vikings allow a team to score in the last few minutes of the first half and go in […]
There is an interesting fact about the Vikings and Ravens games: the teams are 3-3 over the years. Every year the Vikings have won they have gone to the NFC Championship game and every year they have lost the head coach has lost his job. The fact is the Vikings have the talent to get […]
I’m really not sure where to put the blame for the Vikings loss today. The only group that didn’t cause me to grit my teeth was special teams. Yes, wow! What a great day of punting! Yes, that is sarcasm. On the first drive the Vikings moved the ball down the field and got into […]
I have to say that I had a pretty positive outlook on this year’s Vikings squad. They added to their defense and had several players returning that were out injured.

Wow! That’s the most you really can say when you look at the incredible run the Caledonia Warriors had in football. They won 71 straight games including the regular season and the playoffs and 5 Minnesota State Championships since 2015. The last game they lost? Back in 2014 to the BOLD Warriors in the playoffs. […]
The injury report came out before the game and it was a Scrooge of a list. Eric Kendricks is still out and so is Kyle Rudolph – 2 more big names out of the game. So it was a Christmas surprise to see that bruising fullback CJ Ham was also listed as out as well […]
It was the last home game of the season for the Vikings in US Bank Stadium. Every one of those games have felt somewhat hollow with the fans not allowed inside during the pandemic. The Skol Chant still was played on the big screen and the team ran out of the tunnel, but the energy […]
The Vikings started the game about as surprisingly as anyone could have guessed. The Tom Brady led Tampa Bay Buccaneers touted the best run defense in the league. It didn’t show in the first half as Dalvin Cook ran for almost their yearly average as the Vikings drove down the field ending with Cook in […]
We saw it flash in the first game against the Packer: the Vikings can make deadly strikes and score quickly when they are in sync. Today the Vikings came out and did what they have struggled to do in the first 2 games which is keep drives alive and score touchdowns. Justin Jefferson, the rookie […]
