Moral victories were sparse for the Minnesota Vikings in Week 1, but that’s what happens when a team loses to a franchise led by Baker Mayfield.
The Vikings lost 20-17 to Mayfield’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, an error-filled three hours for Minnesota, who lost the turnover battle by three.
At Least Vikings Rookie Did the Thing
Next up for the Vikings is the Philadelphia Eagles, a club that outlasted the New England Patriots on the road for a win to kick off 2023.
On the Vikings side of operations, intermixed with the Buccaneers somewhat stunning 20-17 triumph, rookie wide receiver Jordan Addison stood out in his career game, weaving through Tampa Bay’s defense for 4 receptions, 61 yards, and a touchdown.
