About the Minnesota Vikings

Minnesota did well in the middle portion of its 2023 schedule, particularly during a five-game winning streak from mid-October to mid-November. However, three straight losses to start the season and four consecutive setbacks to end it proved to be its undoing as the Vikings finished 7-10.

Although the hope is for more consistent play in 2024, that may not happen for a few reasons, most notably because a new quarterback will be taking snaps and there are 38 newcomers on the roster. However, there is definite potential for greatness.

The starting quarterback is expected to be Sam Darnold, who played sparingly the past couple of seasons, starting six games for Carolina in 2022 and just one while with the 49ers a year ago.

However, the future and possibly the present at the quarterback position will be JJ McCarthy. He led the Michigan Wolverines to a 15-0 record and a national title in 2023. But even if he does receive significant playing time in 2024, he will most likely go through some growing pains.

All of that was necessary to counteract the loss of Kirk Cousins, who is now in Atlanta.

Head coach Kevin O’Connell is in his third season in that role. Among the rest of the team that he will have at his disposal, there are definite bright points.

Wide receiver Justin Jefferson was named the NFL Offensive Player of the Year in 2022 although he missed nearly half of last season with a lung injury. He is also one of the returners. As far as the newcomers go, running back Aaron Jones, most recently with Green Bay, is a strong addition.

One of the most important pieces of the defensive puzzle will be linebacker Ivan Pace Jr, who is also returning to Minnesota for an additional season in the Twin Cities. Meanwhile, safety Harrison Smith should provide some stable leadership in the secondary; he has played for the Vikings since 2012.

The Vikings are infamous in NFL history for being 0-4 in the Super Bowl, a record that is shared with the Buffalo Bills. However, the Vikings accomplished that feat over a period of seven years from 1969 to 1976. Minnesota has made eight playoff appearances in the last 20 seasons.

Fran Tarkenton is the team’s all-time leader in passing yards and passing touchdowns. Adrian Peterson is the team’s all-time leading rusher and will likely be inducted into the Hall of Fame when he becomes eligible to enter.

The team’s top rival is the Green Bay Packers while they also share divisional rivalries with the Lions and Bears. In addition, they have had short-term rivalries with the Saints, Rams, and Cowboys.

FAQs

What radio stations are the Minnesota Vikings on?

The Vikings radio network has a significant reach, radiating outward from its flagship station KFAN (100.3 FM) in Minneapolis. The network is part of stations in Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. TuneIn Premium provides online access to Vikings-oriented broadcasts as well. In addition, Westwood One Sports affiliates offer nationwide coverage of several Vikings games, including all postseason contests. And SiriusXM offers them all.

How do I record Minnesota Vikings live games?

Most cable and satellite providers offer their subscribers the option to record games and shows to watch at a later time. This generally includes football games, but NFL Sunday Ticket subscribers should note that they will not be allowed to record contests shown through that service. Fubo and the other live TV streaming services offer the ability to record many football games. Additionally, consider that NFL+ provides archived broadcasts of all Vikings contests to subscribers.
