Things have not gone as planned for the Minnesota Vikings in 2021. Though they upset the Green Bay Packers in Week 11, that hasn’t buoyed them to further success, and with two games to go they’re looking at the very real possibility of a second consecutive losing season.
But they’re also not technically out of the playoffs, either, and with enviable skill position players and a once-great defensive mastermind at the helm, it’s possible the Vikings could make a push for the postseason. And if anything should fuel that possibility, it’s the chance to complete the season sweep of their NFC North rivals.
