Once again, we start our coverage of this week’s Minnesota Vikings game with a look back at the history between the Vikings and their opponent. This week, the purple will welcome the Cleveland Browns to U.S. Bank Stadium, and though there isn’t a lot of history between these teams, what history there is does lean pretty heavily towards the Vikings.
Though we do focus on regular-season games in these posts, it’s worth noting that the Browns and Vikings have met in the post-season before. It was back in 1969 at Metropolitan Stadium in the last NFL Championship Game before the AFL/NFL merger.
