The Vikings started 4-1 that season before hitting a slump that landed them at 6-6, before Minnesota promptly rattled off four straight wins to claim a spot in the postseason.
Greenway sees some similarities in the 2016 edition of the Vikings. Minnesota started 5-0 but has dropped to 6-5 with five games left.
The Vikings linebacker said the mood of the team is still upbeat as Minnesota prepares to welcome the Dallas Cowboys to town for Thursday Night Football.
“I think we’re fine. Honestly, it’s the NFL and it’s part of it. Guys who have been around it long enough know that good things still can happen to teams in our situation,” Greenway said.
