The Minnesota Vikings absolutely need a win this weekend at the 0-3 Carolina Panthers to attempt a resurrection.
The club has started 0-3 out of the gate, dampening hope about reaching the postseason after a 13-4 season one year ago. Only six teams in NFL history have turned an 0-3 start into a playoff appearance.
One Viking Remains in Trade Rumor Mill
Minnesota hasn’t started a season with an 0-4 record since 2011, a campaign led at quarterback by Donovan McNabb and then-rookie passer Christian Ponder.
If the Vikings follow suit on Sunday and drop to 0-4, cries for change, plus trade theories, will become deafening.
