The Vikings have been no strangers to starting a season 6-2, which they would be with a win against the Rams. The results from there have varied greatly. Plus, get all the major rankings of the two teams and their players.
It is the nature of Minnesotans not to get too caught up in success. It’s the downside of Minnesota Nice. It’s Minnesota Fatalism. Especially when it comes to the Vikings, there is a doomsday feeling that set in whenever a championship or a lot of success comes to them.
The Vikings aren’t your typical frontrunner like New England or Green Bay.
