Minnesota Vikings 2026 Season: Navigating a Mild Start - The Minnesota Vikings kick off their 2026 season with a mild start, according to Bleacher Reports Gary Davenport. Their early games, including division matchups against the Packers and Bears, are crucial. A three-and-two record heading into the bye week is predicted, but a rougher opening is possible, with only a win against Miami potentially secured.
