7 Bold Vikings Predictions for the Rest of the Season (Fans)

The Minnesota Vikings will finish a bye this weekend and get back to work in Week 7, a home game against the Detroit Lions.

7 Bold Vikings Predictions for the Rest of the Season (Fans)

To prepare for this event, we gathered some Vikings fans and asked each one to make a bold prediction for the remainder of the 2024 season. Bold predictions are designed to be edgy and forward-thinking. So think outside the box when it comes to fan reactions.

Here's what they said.

Question to everyone: What's your one bold prediction or hot take for the rest of the season? Remember, these are designed to be “out there.” So be as wild as you want. Like “Darnold as MVP” or “The Vikings are off to a 12-0 start” or something like that.

1. Vikings Trade 2025 First Rounder

The Vikings will trade their 2025 first-rounder for a superstar player at the trade deadline to boost their Super Bowl odds.

2. NFL point differential record broken

@EHorstman23

The 2024 Vikings will break the NFL single-season point differential record. The schedule is a little more relaxed here. They get Hockenson back and I think the defense is only going to get better. I also think they are making a massive change on the defensive side to help with that.

3. Vikings reach first Super Bowl in 48 years

Who said it?
Steve Berglund
@VIkesin18

Vikes finish 14-3 or better and take first place in the conference. With the No. 1 seed now so valuable because it's the only bye, the Vikings are going to a Super Bowl for the first time in nearly 50 years.

4. Hockenson hits TD-high

Who said it?

@ST7cubs

Despite missing five games so far, TJ Hockenson will set a new season high with seven touchdowns.

5. Finish the game with a score of 16:1

Who said it?
Legend of Corra
@cmaek09

The Vikings are 11-1 for the remainder of the season. The Lions' only loss came in their last game of the season.

6. Undefeated until December

Who said it?

The Vikings remain undefeated through November.

7. An undefeated season

17-0, and I think we're going to the BOWL!
