Welcome to another episode of Two Old Bloggers with Darren Campbell and Dave Stefano. Today, we dive into the Vikings’ incredible turnaround, Brian Flores’ defensive magic, and a preview of the upcoming clash against the Saints.
Playoff Positioning
Rewind to the start of the season when the Vikings were 0-2, then 0-3, and the playoff chances looked bleak. But now, after six weeks, the Vikings are 5-4 and are the 7th playoff team in line. Despite losing Kirk Cousins for the season, the path to the playoffs looks hopeful for the Vikings.
This turnaround is partly due to a mediocre NFC and teams competing for that 7th and final playoff spot, like the Atlanta Falcons and Washington Commanders.
