Arizona Cardinals 18, Minnesota Vikings 17: The preseason is over

The Minnesota Vikings appeared to be on the verge of snapping their preseason losing streak on Saturday afternoon at U.S. Bank Stadium, but the Arizona Cardinals just wouldn’t cooperate.

After getting out to a 14-0 lead midway through the first quarter, the Vikings were outscored by the Cardinals 18-3 the rest of the way to fall in the final preseason game of 2023 by a final score of 18-17.

The Vikings got the ball first in this one, and rookie quarterback Jaren Hall led them on a very impressive drive that was capped with a 1-yard touchdown run from fellow rookie DeWayne McBride to give the home team an early 7-0 lead.
