How can this be happening?
#1
To US? We're Viking's fans. Is fate forgetting this? Did that really happen? Well, I guess.....this guy is the ONE.

In a span of about one month I went from seeing what I THOUGHT was the greatest game in Vikings history (and still might be depending on how you look at it), to what happened yesterday.

This season will not be forgotten, that I can say with 100% certainty.

Lol yeah. I was on a site and fans were debating between which of the two games is the greatest game. I felt good about hiring KOC and after seeing him with the team in training camp, that just solidified it. I felt the same about KAM. 11 and 3 with a first year head coach. I know the ride has been crazy and the wins can be head scratchers but they are still winning. But come on, this season is unlike any other.

I watched the Buffalo game 6? Times in the last month.

I begrudgingly deleted it last Friday.

Kind of sent it off into oblivion because there's no way another Vikings game this year could beat it, right?

it was likely the Vikings best win or their Superbowl victory of the season.

Then yesterday happened.



I mean I'm still kind of shocked and a bit confused.

Vikings in midst of rare season: Extremely fun with no strings attachedNo matter how this season ends, there have already been enough memories to shape the narrative for years to come.
The Vikings can look like the worst team in the NFL and the best team in the NFL — sometimes in the same game, as we saw during Saturday's absurd comeback victory from a 33-0 deficit over the Colts.
The sum total should leave the Vikings somewhere in the middle. By almost ever statistical margin, most importantly a season point differential of plus-2, the Vikings are an average team.
The sheer audacity of their 11-3 record, including now a 10-0 mark in games decided by eight points or fewer, has given this season a rare quality: The ability to appreciate it for what it is without fretting (at least not too much) about what might or might not happen in the future.
If the Vikings ultimately fall short of the Super Bowl, which is likely just based on math, the end will be disappointing. But I submit that this season feels different from any other recent Vikings year of similar arc.

Consider the last four trips to the NFC title game:
*2017: That year had the same sheen of unexpected success and outrageous fortune, but there was the built-in pressure of trying to get to the Super Bowl at U.S. Bank Stadium. When the Vikings came up a game short after a blowout loss to the Eagles — just one week after the Minneapolis Miracle — it felt like destiny had been denied.
*2009: The Vikings were all-in with Brett Favre, he played at a supremely high level, and there was the inherent recognition this could be their one best chance to win a Super Bowl for a long time. The manner of ultimate defeat only added to the disappointment.
*2000: The shock of losing the NFC title game 41-0 set the franchise back for years.
*1998: Another team of destiny denied, a 15-1 season ultimately remembered most for how it ended.
The 2022 version of the Vikings was supposed to be mediocre and has lived up to that billing except when games matter the absolute most. They've flirted enough with losing while pulling off wins that nothing that happens in the playoffs — a wild card round loss or a deep run — should be surprising.
It's the unique season of unexpected success that can — or at least should — just be enjoyed for what it is.
