HEAd COACH LESLIE fRAzIER The 2009 Vikings used a dynamic front line to continue their tradition of stopping the run and put pressure on opposing QBs. The unit ranked #2 in the NFL against the run after leading the league for the previous 3 seasons. The Vikings tied for the NFL lead by allowing only 5 rushing TDs. The NFL-best 48 sacks posted by the Vikings was the 5th-most in team history and Allen led the way with 14.5. Allen and DT Kevin Williams were both recognized as Associated Press 1st Team All-Pros and were named to the Pro Bowl along with CB Antoine Winfield. Frazier’s 2008 defensive unit ranked #6 overall in the NFL and #1 in the league against the run, making the Vikings the 1st squad since the 1970 AFL/NFL merger to lead the league in rushing defense for 3 straight seasons. The Vikings #6 rank in total defense was the highest since the 1994 season. Of the teams ranked in the top 6 in the NFL, the other 5 had ranked in the NFL’s top 10 in 2007 while the Vikings were #20 in 2007, making a 14-position improvement in 2008. The 2008 Vikings defense featured 4 players earning Pro Bowl berths, including 3 defensive linemen with Allen, DTs Kevin Williams and Pat Williams and rounded out with 10th-year CB Winfield earning his 1st Pro Bowl honors. The Vikings dominant line showed prowess as pass rushers as well as against the run. Allen tied for 5th in the NFL with 14.5 sacks and the team total of 45 ranked 4th in the NFL. The Vikings ranked 3rd in the NFL in 2008 by allowing only a 33.5% conversion rate on 3rd down and were 5th in the NFL by allowing 15.8 offensive points per game. In his debut season with the Vikings in 2007, the team maintained its dominance against the run, posting the #1 rush defense in the NFL and allowed a mere 3.1 yards per carry. The anchors of the Vikings defense, DTs Kevin Williams and Pat Williams, were joined by S Darren Sharper as Pro Bowl honorees, the most defensive Vikings to earn trips to Hawaii since 1992. Frazier’s defense was opportunistic, scoring on 6 interception returns to tie a Vikings record and added a pair of TDs on fumble recoveries. The Vikings’ 6 scores by interception return ranks tied for 5th-most in a season in NFL history. The team scored on 3 interceptions in a key road game against the NY Giants to set a team record against the eventual Super Bowl XLII champions. The Vikings tied for 3rd in the NFL in 2007 by allowing only 7 rushing TDs and were 5th in the NFC in total offensive points allowed, an average of 17.8 points per game. The 2007 Vikings rush defense was the envy of the NFL, allowing 74.1 yards per game on the ground and allowed only 1 opponent RB to break the 100-yard mark. Frazier came to Minnesota after coaching DBs with Indianapolis and serving as Special Assistant to Head Coach Tony Dungy for 2 seasons. The 2006 Colts defense clamped down on opponents throughout the playoff run that brought the franchise its 1st Super Bowl title since 1970. Prior to his tenure with Indianapolis, Frazier served as defensive coordinator with Cincinnati in 2003 and ’04 where he helped the Bengals go .500 in consecutive seasons for the 1st time in 12 seasons. Frazier’s NFL coaching debut came from 1999-2002 with Philadelphia where he worked with the Eagles DBs. Frazier helped CB Troy Vincent earn 4 Pro Bowl berths, S Brian Dawkins went to the game 3 times and Bobby Taylor appear in the all-star game once. The trio all earned Pro Bowl recognition in 2002. Frazier was part of an impressive program-building project in Philadelphia that saw the team improve from a 5-11 record in 1999 to 11-5 in 2000, 11-5 in 2001 and 12-4 in 2002. The team advanced to the playoffs in each of Frazier’s final 3 seasons with the Eagles, including winning the NFC East in 2001 and ’02 and advancing to the NFC Championship game in both seasons. As a player, Frazier was part of the legendary Chicago Bears defense that keyed the Super Bowl XX win over New England. He was a starter at CB on the 1985 Super Bowl team and played for the Bears from 1981-86. He led Chicago in interceptions in 1983, ’84 and ’85 but his career was cut short by a severe knee injury suffered in the Super Bowl. During his career he had 20 INTs in 65 games and returned a pair for TDs. Frazier was an All-America DB and baseball standout at Alcorn State University. In 2007, Frazier was inducted into the SWAC Hall of Fame and in 2012 he earned induction into the Alcorn State Hall of Fame. Frazier was born (4/3/59) in Columbus, MS and attended S.D. Lee High. Frazier and wife, Gale, have 3 children- Kieron, Chantel and Corey, who plays DB at Rice. He holds a degree in business administration and was active in Fellowship of Christian Athletes throughout his playing career. Frazier works closely with All-Pro Dad, an organization that stresses fathers taking an active role and putting family first.

NFL Head Coach: 3rd YearOverall NFL Experience: 21st YearCoaching Experience: 26th YearOverall NFL Record: 17-28-0 (.378)Regular Season: 17-27-0 (.386)Postseason: 0-1 (.000)Record with MIN: 17-28-0 (.378) Leslie Frazier led the Vikings to a 2012 Wild Card playoff berth in his 2nd full season coaching the club and shattered outside expectations for a team that underwent a significant roster overhaul and relied on a talented but young core group with veteran leadership at key

positions. The 2012 team marked Frazier’s 8th team in 14 seasons coaching in the NFL that advanced to the playoffs, 6 of those teams as division winners, and he has suffered only 3 losing seasons. With the unique perspective of a Super Bowl winner as a player and coach, Frazier has a proven track record of success. His 1st title came as a starting CB with the 1985 Chicago Bears in Super Bowl XX. Since taking over the head coaching duties of the Vikings for the final 6 games of the 2010 season, Frazier has been committed to building a roster with talent and character that places value on playing smart, team-oriented football. The 2012 Vikings set a franchise record by improving by 7 victories over the season before, finishing 10-6 to earn the 6th seed in the NFC playoffs after a 3-13 campaign in 2011. The 2012 team was 1 of 4 participants in the 2012 playoffs that were not in the tournament the season before. The Vikings came together as a team when it mattered most, winning the final 4 games of the regular season, including wins over playoff-bound Houston on the road and against NFC North champion Green Bay at home in the regular season finale. The Vikings counted on several rookies and 2nd-year players making huge contributions. The team started rookies LT Matt Kalil (1st round, #4) and S Harrison Smith (1st round, #29) in all 16 games while rookie kicker Blair Walsh had an NFL record-setting debut season. All 3 newcomers earned All-Rookie honors from the PFWA while 7 players earned Pro Bowl berths- Adrian Peterson, Jerome Felton, Jared Allen, Chad Greenway and Walsh. Peterson and Walsh were 1st-Team All-Pro selections by the Associated Press while Felton and Greenway were 2nd-Team selections. The club started a team-record 5 rookies in the home game vs. Chicago when CB Josh Robinson (3rd round), TE Rhett Ellison (4th round) and WR Jarius Wright (4th round) joined Kalil and Smith in the starting lineup. In his 2 full seasons coaching the Vikings in 2011 and 2012 the team has been witness to some of the top record-setting performances in franchise and NFL history. Adrian Peterson’s remarkable comeback from a severe knee injury at the end of 2011 to post one of the most epic rushing seasons in NFL history was a story that captured the attention of the country. Peterson’s 2,097 yards rushing ranks 2nd in NFL history. His play on the field and humility off it was an inspiration. If not for Peterson’s performance, Walsh’s record-setting debut season would have been the story of the team. He broke the NFL record for 50-yard FGs by going 10-of-10 and booted a game winner in the 1st game of the season and in the final regular season game of the season to seal a playoff berth. Walsh’s 141 points set a Vikings rookie record and ranks 2nd in NFL history by a rookie. Jared Allen had a record-setting 2011 with 22.0 sacks, setting a new team record and falling just shy of the NFL record of 22.5 en route to finishing runner-up in Associated Press NFL Defensive Player of the Year honors along with notching a sack in a team-record 13 games during the season. Frazier notched a 3-3 record on an interim basis in the final 6 games of 2010, including winning his opening contest at Washington and an upset win over eventual NFC East champion Philadelphia on the road. His steady and consistent personality and coaching style helped the Vikings prepare weekly under unprecedented circumstances in a harrowing three-week span. The team endured the collapse of the roof on their home stadium, forcing the club to play consecutive “home” games at Detroit’s Ford Field against the NY Giants and at TCF Bank Stadium on the campus of the University of Minnesota against the Chicago Bears. Following the chaotic two weeks, the team experienced a two-day weather delay of a Sunday Night Football game at Philadelphia to Tuesday night, turning a routine road trip into a three-night extended stay. The Vikings 2010 defense ended the season ranked #8 in the NFL, the 3rd straight season the Vikings ranked in the top 10 in total defense for the first time since 1992-94. Offensively, the Vikings were stifled by injuries and started 3 QBs and centers during the season. The running game continued to excel as Pro Bowler Adrian Peterson notched 1,298 yards and 12 TDs. team was forced through injuries to turn to rookie QB Joe Webb to start the final 2 games of the season, winning his debut in an upset at Philadelphia. Frazier’s defense led the NFL in 2009 with 48.0 sacks and the team ranks 5th in the NFL with 162.0 sacks from 2007-10. The Vikings defense ranked #6 in the NFL in 2009, the 2nd straight season ranked #6 in total defense. The mark was the 1st time since 1993-94 the team ranked in the NFL’s top 10 in consecutive seasons.

fROM HEAd COACH LESLIE fRAzIERPOSTGAME - OCTOBER 21, 2013Vikings Head Coach Leslie Frazier

Tough loss for our team here on Monday night. The guys play hard and we didn’t make enough plays. We had opportunities to make plays and usually in our game, that will come back to bite you and it did. We had some chances, but we just couldn’t make things happen. We had opportunities. Injury-wise, (RB) Matt Asiata has to have an MRI on his shoulder. We’ll know more about him tomorrow. (FB) Rhett Ellison, his ankle, so we’ll get an MRI to see what’s going on there. Other than that, I think we came out pretty good health-wise. We missed opportunities. Just didn’t make some plays when we needed to make some plays and get the results we wanted here today.

Q: Can you talk about Josh Freeman’s performance?A: His performance was up and down. They had a lot of people at the line of scrimmage and it made it hard for us to get our run game going to take some of the pressure off the quarterback position. His numbers aren’t the greatest, for sure. We put together what we thought was a good plan to help him to be successful in this ball game and it didn’t work out.

Q: How much does it come to the turnovers? A: It was big. We had a chance to keep points off the board. Andrew Sendejo drops an interception and Marcus (Sherels) drops one and then they come back and got to his drop and they scored a touchdown because of the punt return. We missed some opportunities and then when Cordarrelle gets the big kickoff return with great field position and then we end up getting nothing out of it. We had some missed opportunities in a game like this when our defense is playing so well… We keep coming up with stops and limiting their opportunities; to not get it done was very frustrating.

Q: What didn’t Josh Freeman do tonight?A: I think when we look at the tape we’ll have a better assessment of it, but it seems like there were some opportunities that we missed. One where they kind of had him in their grasp and he tried to make a play. That’s one I’m sure he’d like to have back and there were a few other plays that I think could be a little better. We’ll look at the tape and try to get a better evaluation, but there were some missed opportunities for sure.

Q: Did you think about taking him out and letting someone else go in at any point?A: There wasn’t a time tonight I thought about taking him out. We still had opportunities. It was like 20-7 with eight, nine minutes left in the game. We were just two scores down with 10 minutes to go. We still were there. We just needed to make some plays and we didn’t.

Q: What do you say to your team at this point? What’s the message to the players?A: They played so hard and with the passion and emotion that you want to see. We’ve just got to find ways to make some of those plays that we didn’t make tonight, whether it’s the dropped interceptions or the punt return or guys being in position to maybe catch a ball and not catching a ball. If they play with the kind of effort and prepare the way they prepared this week, we’re going to get that win and I’m hoping it’s going to start this weekend at home on Sunday night. We’re close, but I’m hoping that we won’t have this conversation after our ball game on Sunday night. There were some good things that happened in this game. We’ve just got to get a couple of things right this week in practice.

Q: How concerned are you with the offense? The offense has only produced one touchdown in the last two games.A: It’s going to be hard to win in our league when that happens. You’ve got to score points. The rules have changed so much that it’s become an offensive league, so you’ve got to score points with the way things are set up right now. It’s a concern. We’ve got to figure out a way to score points. It’s just hard to win games 9-7, 10-7.

Q: Was the running game the biggest concern?A: It was tough tonight. We were going against people that try to blitz to stop the run time and time again and we’ve been able to still have success and the fact that we couldn’t get anything going tonight, that puts a lot of pressure on our passing game and I’ve got to go back and look at it and figure out a way because we’re always going to see what we saw tonight. That’s not unusual for us, so we’ve got to get that fixed fast or it’s going to be the same way Sunday night.

Former Vikings backfield enforcer Joey Browner, a standout safety from 1983-91, will be the 21st member of the Vikings Ring of Honor.

NFL Head Coach: 8th YearOverall NFL Experience: 21st YearCoaching Experience: 27th YearOverall NFL Record: 83-44 Regular Season: 78-40 (.661)Postseason: 5-4 (.555) Record with GB: 83-44 (.654) Record vs. MIN: 11-4College: Baker ‘87

When Mike McCarthy was named head coach of the Green Bay Packers in January 2006, he said the goal for the franchise would be to win a Super Bowl, and that would never change.

In 2010, McCarthy led the Packers back to the pinnacle of the sport, joining Vince Lombardi and Mike Holmgren as the only coaches in team history to lead the Packers to a Super Bowl title, with a 31-25 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl XLV. The path to that world championship was not an easy one as McCarthy joined Pittsburgh’s Bill Cowher (2005) as the only Super Bowl-winning coaches to lead their respective teams to three road victories as the No. 6 seed in the playoffs en route to a title. Since taking over as head coach in ’06, McCarthy has an 80-42 overall record (.656), including a 6-4 mark (.600) in the postseason. Entering 2013, his overall winning percentage ranks third among current NFL head coaches (min. 50 games). The past four seasons (2009-12) under McCarthy mark one of the most successful stretches in team history as Green Bay posted a 52-20 record (.722), including the playoffs. Green Bay’s 47 regular-season victories from 2009-12 rank No. 2 in the NFL behind only New England (49), and are the second most by the Packers over a four-year span, trailing only the 48 victories from 1995-98. While the Packers ultimately fell short of the Super Bowl the past two seasons, McCarthy’s team was still one of the best in the NFL. Green Bay captured back-to-back division titles in 2011-12 for the first time since it won three straight from 2002-04. The 2012 season also marked the Packers’ fourth straight playoff appearance and fifth in the last six seasons, the only NFC team to accomplish those feats. In 2011, McCarthy led Green Bay to a franchise-best 15 regular-season wins, as the Packers became just the sixth team in NFL history to reach that mark in the regular season. The Packers began the ’11 campaign reeling off 13 consecutive wins, easily eclipsing the previous franchise record of 10-0 starts in 1929 and 1962. Dating back to Week 16 of the 2010 season, and including the playoffs, Green Bay won 19 consecutive games before suffering its lone regular-season defeat at Kansas City in Week 15. Covering a span of 364 days, the 19-game winning streak was the longest in franchise history and was the second-longest winning streak in NFL history (including playoffs) behind only the 2003-04 New England Patriots (21 games). Perhaps most impressively, the Packers never trailed in the fourth quarter during their streak. The Packers’ 2011 regular-season success culminated with their second NFC North title under McCarthy and first since 2007. Green Bay’s 6-0 mark in the division marked the first time in team history that the Packers posted an undefeated record in their division since the NFL went to the divisional format in 1967. Green Bay also became the first team since the 1987 Chicago Bears to sweep the NFC North/Central. Additionally, Green Bay earned the NFC’s No. 1 seed for the first time since 1996 and finished with a perfect 8-0 record at Lambeau Field for the first time since 2002. McCarthy was runner-up in Coach of the Year voting by The Associated Press and saw seven of his players earn Pro Bowl nods following the 2011 campaign, the most the Packers had voted to the all-star game since 1967. McCarthy guided the Packers to a 10-6 campaign in 2010, highlighted by seven wins in the final 10 games. What made the Packers’ championship season even more impressive was the adversity the team faced due to injuries. Green Bay finished the year with 15 players on injured reserve, and eight of them had started at least one game during the season. Six starters from the opening-day depth chart sustained season-ending injuries in the first seven games. The Packers became just the third 10-6 team in NFL history to win a Super Bowl, and their six losses on the season came by a combined 20 points. Green Bay never lost a game by more than four points, but even more impressive, it never trailed by more than seven points at any point in a game all season. The Packers became the first team since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger to never trail by more than seven points at any point during the regular season, and became the first championship-winning franchise to do so since the 1942 Washington Redskins. It was a shining example of the steady, consistent approach that McCarthy has taken in leading the Packers throughout his tenure, one that culminated with the organization’s fourth Super Bowl title and 13th world championship in 2010.

Offensive Coordinator

Bill Musgrave, entering his 3rd season as the Vikings offensive coordinator, led an offense that tied the franchise record with 2,634 rushing yards. The 2012 season also saw great improvements by QB Christian Ponder in his 1st full season as a starter and 2nd under the tutelage of Musgrave. Ponder made strides during his sophomore

season throwing 1 less interception and improving both his completion percentage (54.3 to 62.1) and his QB rating (70.1 to 81.2). Ponder started all 16 regular season games and was the only player to attempt a pass for the first time since 1979. 2nd year TE Kyle Rudolph also had a career year setting new career highs in catches (53), receiving yards (493) and TDs (9). The 2011 Vikings offense tallied 75 rushes of 10+ yards, keeping defenses off balance through creative personnel packages. WR Percy Harvin’s role in the offense was greatly enhanced as the 3rd-year player set a career-high with 87 receptions, the 6th-most in the NFL for the season and 4th-most among WRs. Harvin set a Vikings record with 52 carries for 345 yards and 2 TDs on the ground, ranking among the NFL’s all-time leaders for rushing by a WR. A former NFL signal-caller himself, Musgrave was a backup to Joe Montana and Steve Young in San Francisco from 1991-94, working under coaches Mike Holmgren, Mike Shanahan and Gary Kubiak. He played from 1995-96 with Denver where he backed up John Elway when Shanahan took over the reins as Broncos head coach. With Atlanta from 2006-10, Musgrave helped mold the Falcons offense, highlighted by an impressive 2010 season, leading the way for a 13-3 regular season mark. Prior to coaching in Atlanta, Musgrave worked with the Redskins QBs in 2005. Musgrave worked with Jacksonville in 2003-04, serving as offensive coordinator/QBs coach. During the 1999 and 2000 campaigns, Musgrave worked with the QBs in Carolina and also served as offensive coordinator in 2000 under George Seifert. A standout QB at Oregon from 1987-90, Musgrave was a 3-year team captain for the Ducks and led the team to consecutive bowl bids in 1989 and 1990. A native of Grand Junction, CO, Musgrave and wife, Neely, have 4 children.

Special Teams Coordinator

The Vikings special teams units, led by 3rd year coordinator Mike Priefer, had a strong showing in 2012. The Vikings led the NFL in opponent average starting field position on kickoffs and Walsh set the team record for most kickoff touchbacks with 53. Minnesota also had two special teams return TDs in the same game at Detroit (9/30) when WR Percy

Harvin took a kickoff 105 yards and CB Marus Sherels returned a punt 77 yards. P Chris Kluwe also set a new career high with a 39.7 net punting average. Walsh also added 2 game-winning FGs in 2012, Week 1 and Week 17. The 11-year NFL coaching veteran has held the same title with the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs in years past. Priefer’s special teams units are known for creating big-play opportunities. Since joinin the Vikings, Priefer’s special teams units have posted some of the NFL’s best performances. Since 2011 the Vikings rank 1st in KOR avg with 26.8, tied for 1st with 2 KOR TDs and 3rd in avg. starting position afer kickoffs. The Vikings coverage units also had success ranking 1st in opponent KOR of 20+ yards allowed. During the 2010 season in Denver, Priefer had 3 players rank in the Top 10 in each of their respective categories. Eddie Royal was 6th in the NFL with an 11.9 punt return average. Rookie Eric Decker was 10th in KOR average at 25.3 per return. Kicker Matt Prater was tied for 6th in TBs with 20. Before joining the Broncos, Priefer cordinated Kansas City’s special teams from 2006-08 following stints as an assistant special teams coach with the New york Giants (2003-05) and Jacksonville Jaguars (2002). His coaching career began at his alma mater, the U.S. Naval Academy, as a graduate assistant in 1994, and he owns 17 years of coaching experience at the professional and collegiate levels. Priefer entered the NFL coaching ranks with the Jaguars in 2002 as their assistant special teams coach. That season, punter Chris Hanson earned the first Pro Bowl selection of his career. From 1994-2001, Priefer helped coach special teams at the collegiate level, working for Navy (1994-96), Youngstown State University (1997-98), Virginia Military Institute (1999) and Northern Illinois University (2000-01). Priefer was born on Aug. 21, 1966, in Cleveland. He is married to Debbie, and the couple has four children: Samantha, Michael Jr., Wilson and Katie.

2013 VIKINGS COACHING STAff

Defensive Coordinator

Alan Williams, who enters is 2nd year as the Vikings defensive coordinator, led an improved defense in 2012, dropping their opponents points per game average down to 21.7 from 28.1 the previous season. The Vikings held their opponents to under 20 points 6 times. The defense was led by LB Chad Greenway, who set a career high with

191 tackles and led the team in tackles for the 5th straight season and DE Jared Allen, who recorded his 6th straight 10+ sack season and 7th overall. Williams, who just completed his 12th year of coaching, reunited with Leslie Frazier in Minnesota. Williams and Frazier served on the Indianapolis staff in 2005-06, working with the defensive backs. The duo reached the pinnacle following the 2006 season when the Colts won Super Bowl XLI over Chicago. Williams got his first taste of NFL coaching in 2001 with Tampa Bay as part of Tony Dungy’s staff, who he followed to Indianapolis the following season. In Williams’ decade working with the Colts DBs, the club ranked in the top 6 in NFL passing defense 5 times and finished out of the top 15 only once. The Colts’ playoff success was in part due in part to the defense snaring interceptions at record rate. In the 9 straight Colts playoff appearances from 2002-10 the team snared 18 INTs, 2nd in the NFL over that span to only New England’s 22. From 2002-10 the Colts allowed 20+ TD passes only 2 times and had 10+ INTs each year. Williams got his break as an NFL coach in 2001 with Tampa Bay under head coach Tony Dungy where he joined a defensive staff that included Monte Kiffin and Mike Tomlin along with John Lynch, Ronde Barber and Donnie Abraham in the backfield. Williams grew to pursue football as a career during 9 seasons as a player and coach at William & Mary. He was a standout RB from 1988-91, ending his career with over 2,500 yards of total offense and set a school record with 4 TDs in playoff action against Massachusetts. From 1996-2000, the opening 2 seasons as RBs coach and the final 3 as DBs coach from 1998-2000. Williams and wife, Lisa, have 3 sons- Christian, Solomon and Nathan.

QB Christian Ponder had his best outing of the 2012 season vs. the Packers in a Week 17 playoff-clinching win, recording a career best 120.2 QB rating and connecting on a season long 65-yard pass to WR Jarius Wright. The Packers are the Vikings’ most frequent opponent of all time. Adrian Peterson has 1,541 rushing yards and 9 TDs in 13 career games vs. the Packers.

The Vikings hold a 7-5 advantage over the Cowboys in Dallas while the all-time series is locked at 14-14. This is the Vikings 1st visit to Cowboys stadium. Vikings QB Christian Ponder grew up in Colleyville, Texas, a suburb of Dallas.

The Vikings and Redskins will meet for the 4th consecutive season in 2013, the longest streak in series history, in a Thursday Night Football matchup in Week 10. Minnesota had won 3 in row until their 2012 meeting. Leslie Frazier earned his 1st win as a Head Coach against the Redskins in 2010 after taking over on an interim basis for the final 6 games of the regular season. Leslie Frazier, as a head coach, is 2-1 versus Washington. The Redskins won Super Bowl XXVI in the only Super Bowl played in Minnesota against the Buffalo Bills during the 1991 season.

The Packers are the Vikings’ most frequent opponent of all time. Adrian Peterson has 1,541 rushing yards and 9 TDs in 13 career games vs. the Packers.

The Vikings and Bears, who play at Minnesota in Week 13, split the season series in 2012 with each squad winning on their respective home fields. In 2012, Chicago and Minnesota played twice in 3 weeks. The Bears won convincingly at Soldier Field in Week 12 with a 28-10 victory. In Week 14, the Vikings returned the favor beating the Bears, 21-14. RB Adrian Peterson rushed for 154 yards and 2 TDs while rookie DBs CB Josh Robinson and S Harrison Smith added INTs. Smith returned his pick 56-yards for a TD, his 2nd INT return TD on the season which tied a Vikings rookie record. The Bears-Vikings series sits in favor of Minnesota at 53-49 all-time. Minnesota set a franchise record by starting 5 different rookies against Chicago (12/9) in 2012, a 21-14 win. Adrian Peterson’s 224 rushing yards as a rookie against the Bears is the most of any opponent all-time against the Bears.

The Vikings will play the defending Super Bowl champs, Baltimore Ravens, for the 1st time since 2009 and the 1st time in Baltimore since 2005. Minnesota is 1-2 at Baltimore against the Ravens. The last time the Vikings met the defending Super Bowl champions was in 2011 when they played the Green Bay Packers and have played the defending Super Bowl champions 4 of the last 5 years (PIT ’09, NO ’10, GB ’11, BAL ’13).

In Week 15 the Eagles are making their 1st trip to Minneapolis since 2008 when they defeated the Vikings, 26-14, in the NFC Wild Card Play-off Game. In their last meeting, the Vikings gutted out a 24-14 win at Philadelphia in a rare Tuesday Night matchup in 2010 after the game had been postponed due to a blizzard. Counting playoffs, Philadelphia has visited the Metrodome 5 times prior to 2013.

The Bengals and Vikings, both playoff teams in 2012, matchup for the 1st time since 2009 and the 1st time in Cincinnati since 2005. The Vikings are 1-5 all-time on the road against Cincinnati. Vikings Head Coach Leslie Frazier served as the Bengals Defensive Coordinator from 2003-04. Vikings TE and 2013 Pro Bowl MVP Kyle Rudolph hails from Cincinnati and attended Elder High.

The Vikings end the 2013 season hosting Detroit in the final regular season game at Mall of American Field. The Viking swept the season series against the Lions for the 1st time since 2009. The Vikings received one of many notable special teams performances in the Week 4, 20-13, win at Detroit when they notched both a KR TD and PR TD for an NFL record 3rd time in team history. The Vikings have won 7 of the last 10 games with the Lions and own a 68-33-2 record all-time in the series.

The Vikings have amassed the 5th-most home wins by an NFL team since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger. The club moved from Metropolitan Stadium following the 1981 season, playing at Mall of America Field at HHH Metrodome starting in 1982. The Vikings have played 255 regular season and playoff games indoors, notching a 164-91 record. In 2010 the team endured the loss of the final 2 home games of the season following the collapse of the Dome roof due to heavy snows and blizzard conditions. The Vikings played “host” to the NY Giants at Detroit’s Ford Field and played the regular season home finale at TCF Bank Stadium on the University of Minnesota campus when Chicago vis-ited for a Monday Night Football matchup on 12/20/10. Ironically, the game was 29 years to the day since the last outdoor Vikings game in Minnesota, the finale at Met Stadium on 12/20/81 against Kansas City.
