Christopher Gates has been the lead writer at The Daily Norseman since the site launched in July of 2006, covering the Minnesota Vikings day in and day out.
We’ve made it through the first quarter of the 2024 NFC North Championship Game in Detroit, and your Minnesota Vikings trail the Detroit Lions by a score of 7-0.
The Lions got the football first, as the Vikings won the toss and chose to defer to the second half. Detroit managed one first down on their opening drive but wound up having to punt after a big tackle for loss by Jonathan Greenard.
