Can the Minnesota Vikings make the playoffs after a 1-5 start like the Indianapolis Colts did in 2018?
Following their loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, the Minnesota Vikings are now 1-5 for the first time ever with Mike Zimmer as their head coach.
In the past, the Vikings have started a season with a 1-5 record five times. Minnesota did not go on to make the playoffs in any of these years nor did they win more than six games.
In the entire history of the NFL, three teams have gone on to make the playoffs after starting a season with five losses in their first six matchups.
