So since we are basically just waiting on the draft to take place at this point I thought it would be kind of fun to see which Vikings team was everyone's favorite of all time and also who was their least favorite of all time.
Over the years the Vikings have had some really GREAT teams.
I could not just pick one so I am going with two teams.
1A. 1975 Vikings who got beat in the NFC title game against the Cowboys on a Hail Mary that should have been interference on
Drew Pearson, but was not called. If memory serves me, a fan threw a beer bottle from the stands and hit a referee in the
head. This was a great Vikings team with a suffocating defense with Alan Page, Jim Marshall, Nate Allen, Paul Krause.
1B. 1998 Vikings the year that Rookie of the Year Randy Moss was drafted and the Vikings offense set the record on offense for
most points ever scored. It was a very balanced and lethal offense with Moss, Cris Carter, Jake Reed, Robert Smith and
Randall Cunningham taking over for an injured starting quarterback in Brad Johnson.
Now for least favorite team:
!. It has to be the 1984 Vikings with Les Steckel as head coach and the Vikings record was 3-13. Just a pathetic team with no
heart or passion to play to win.
Favorite and least favorite Vikings team of all time

Re: Favorite and least favorite Vikings team of all time
Favorite team of all time:
1987 Vikings who went into New Orleans and San Francisco and upset both great teams
1998 Vikings who was a very fun team to watch and dominated every team except for Buccaneers on the road and Falcons in NFC Championship game
Least favorite team of all time:
1984 Vikings who is the worst team of all time and went 3-13
2011 Vikings who also went 3-13 and it is ironic that both head coaches that started with “Les” have the same record at 3-13

Re: Favorite and least favorite Vikings team of all time
The 98 team was both my favorite and least favorite team of all time.
My favorite because they were so fun to watch, my least favorite because that loss in the championship game was just so disappointing.

Re: Favorite and least favorite Vikings team of all time
It is a blessing in disguise anyway since Vikings had too many injuries to the defense in NFC championship game and would have lost to the Broncos in the Superbowl and Vikings would be the first team to lose 5 Superbowls so I am glad that did not happenStumpHunter wrote: ↑Mon Mar 30, 2020 8:57 am The 98 team was both my favorite and least favorite team of all time.
