We’ll have the final injury reports for the Minnesota Vikings and the Detroit Lions ahead of the Christmas Day matchup at U.S. Bank Stadium, but first, we want to do a quick roundup of some of the roster moves that the purple have made over the past couple of days.
Yesterday, the Vikings officially made the move to activate Ty Chandler from injured reserve. Chandler injured his knee way back in Week 1 against Chicago on a kickoff return and was placed on IR. He had his window for return opened a few weeks ago, and the team was right...

This year’s Christmas Day contest between the Detroit Lions and our Minnesota Vikings from U.S. Bank Stadium is being advertised as a game that is exclusive to Netflix. However, if you are in a couple of locations, there will be local affiliates broadcasting the game in the event that you do not subscribe to the streaming service.
Specifically, if you live in the Twin Cities area, tomorrow’s game will be airing on the local CBS affiliate, which is WCCO-4. In addition, if you are a Vikings fan who is located in the greater Detroit area, you will be able to...

The Detroit Lions come into town on Christmas Day to take on our Minnesota Vikings. This game probably looked a lot juicier at the beginning of the season. Both teams have had disappointing seasons and the Lions are likely to join the Vikings in the land of the eliminated soon.. The Vikings went on the road with J.J. McCarthy for the first matchup and came away with a victory. They’ll be at home with Undrafted Rookie QB Max Brosmer this time.
Series Record: 81-45-2
Home Record: 44-18-1

The Minnesota Vikings won an ugly 16-13 affair in the swamps of Jersey against the New York Giants to improve to 7-8 on the season.
Another injury to J.J. McCarthy overshadowed the victory, this time to his throwing hand. The good news appears to be that there are no broken bones, but his availability for the Christmas Day game on a quick turnaround looks unlikely. If he does indeed miss Thursday’s game, it will mark the seventh time this season he’ll be inactive. He has now missed 24 of 32 (75%) possible games since the start of the 2024 season....

Right around 48 hours out from their Christmas Day game against the Detroit Lions, we have the answer to who will be starting at quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings in Week 17. . .and it will not be J.J. McCarthy.
Head coach Kevin O’Connell announced just moments ago that McCarthy has a hairline fracture in his throwing hand and is out for Thursday afternoon’s game at U.S. Bank Stadium. Max Brosmer will get the start at quarterback for the Vikings.
McCarthy injured his hand late in the second quarter of the Vikings’ 16-13 victory over the New York Giants on...

A Vikings win is always great! However, the injury to JJ McCarthy really stinks. The team really needs to be able to evaluate his play on the field which has seen ups and downs. The ups have been really nice while the downs can mostly be chalked up to him having very little snaps. The difficult part comes with his frequent injuries. You’d like to believe it is just unlucky but at this point, it is a legitimate concern. Going forward, I know that I will be very worried on every snap. I will not say that he is “injury...

The Minnesota Vikings won their 3rd game in a row, defeating the NY Giants, 16-13. It wasn’t the most exciting game for fans to watch, with only 3.6 yards per play. The Vikings did see some of the veteran stars come alive with Justin Jefferson and Aaron Jones having a nice game. The defense was dominant against a subpar New York offense. Will Reichard was perfect, as usual.
Aaron Jones
Jones picked up an ankle injury early in the game. However, Jordan Mason was injured shortly after and missed the remainder of the game. Jones toughed out 21 carries for...

It’s often said that nobody cares about the Pro Bowl, outside of players who have incentives for such things written into their contracts. Based on the announcement that was made just an hour or so ago, fans of the Minnesota Vikings now have even less reason. . .if that’s possible. . .to care about this year’s installment of the Pro Bowl Games.
The Vikings were one of just three teams to have zero players named to the roster for this year’s Pro Bowl Games when the league announced the rosters earlier on Tuesday morning. The other two teams were the...
