A win in Minnesota for 49ers would be the first in over 30 years

December 13, 1992.

That’s the last time the San Francisco 49ers have gone on the road and beaten the Minnesota Vikings. So, for over 30 years, the 49ers have not been able to beat the Vikings in Minnesota.

Oddly enough, it seemed the Vikings games in the Twin Cities revealed some glaring issues of whatever 49ers team put together that year. Many times, it would be the first loss of the year.

In 2009, the 49ers traveled for Week 3. They were 2-0 and faced the Brett Favre-led Vikings. With only seconds remaining, Favre threw a 32-yard pass that was caught by wide receiver Greg Lewis.
