This Sunday marks the 49th consecutive year in which the Minnesota Vikings will watch the final game of the NFL season from home, as the last time they vied for the Lombardi Trophy was their Super Bowl 11 loss to John Madden and the then-Oakland Raiders to close out the 1976 campaign.
Super Bowl 60, of course, will see the Seattle Seahawks take on the New England Patriots. And while the Vikings obviously won't be on the field at Levi's Stadium, several of their former players will be.
