Vikings trying to survive a season full of trials
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — The Minnesota Vikings’ season began with an ambulance rushing to team headquarters to save the leg of their starting quarterback.
A blockbuster trade followed to get another quarterback in town just ahead of the season opener in hopes of keeping a championship window open only to have the offensive line decimated by injuries, their star running back go down with a knee injury and their offensive coordinator to walk away midseason with the offense struggling to get going.
