5/3/12: The Minnesota Vikings were rumored to target USC offensive tackle Matt Kalil with the third overall pick. The Vikings traded down one spot with the Cleveland Browns and for their sacrifice they received the Brown's fourth overall pick, as well as their 4th, 5th, and 7th round selections, and still were able to draft Kalil. Somewhere Jimmy Johnson must be smiling. The Browns targeted Alabama running back Trent Richardson and may have panicked when reports of Tampa trading up surfaced. Kalil was easily rated the top offensive tackle in the draft and will have an immidiate impact on a porous offensive line.

4/25/12: Dispite a questionable quarterback position, an aging defense, and ongoing stadium issues, the Minnesota Vikings can be thankful that they are not the New Orleans Saints right now. The Vikings committed to play another year in the Metrodome even though the lease expired. Draft-wise, Minnesota traded the 3rd overall pick to Cleveland for the 4th pick, and the Browns' picks in the 4th, 5th, and 7th rounds. The Vikings still got their man at #4, USC offensive tackle Matt Kalil to protect quarterback Christian Ponder. Minnesota also traded back into the 1st round with Baltimore, selecting safety Harrison Smith from Notre Dame.

4/17/12: Just a year removed from the NFC Championship Game found the Vikings in last place in the NFC North, struggling with rookie quarterback Christian Ponder. The NFL schedule makers were kinder this year than last, with games against the AFC South, NFC West, Tampa and Washington. Minnesota has one primetime game - Thursday in Week 8 at home against the Bucs. In other news, the Vikings new stadium proposal was rejected by a State House panel, meaning that the government and team continue to be at odds about who will pay what, and may go to a voter referendum.

The Minnesota Vikings have been the best franchise never to have won a Super Bowl. Although this is not an enviable title, it is well deserved. They have made the Playoffs over 60% of their seasons, making four Super Bowls in the 1970s and five NFC Conference Championship Games since. The Minnesota Vikings are also notable for their incredibly loud and exciting home crowd during their home games in the Metrodome in Minneapolis. Get Vikings tickets and experience one of the most electric atmospheres in the NFL.

Minnesota Vikings Tickets - The Players

Brett Favre finally retired. Its time for the Donovan McNabb to step in and get under center. He would act as a Mentory for the other young QBs the Vikings have which include Bomar Rhett, Joe Webb and rookie Christian Ponder. Adrian Peterson is expected to take most of the snaps and should be just as explosive as ever. Toby Gerhart has proven he can run just as hard in the NFL as he did in college and will be an important utility back for the Vikings. Bernard Berrian and Percy Harvin return and are in full health. Visanthe Shiancoe looks to have another big year. Jared Allen and the defense expect to bounce back and redeem last season. Its time for the Vikings to make some noise and maybe Donovan could get a ring out of his tenure in Minnesota.
