Minnesota is coming off a season where the team went 7-9, missing out on the playoffs after winning in the postseason the year before. Now, the Vikings will try to orchestrate a comeback season.
A revamped defense should certainly help. If the offense can keep pace with their production from 2020, the team could be looking at a winning record.
So it makes sense that BetMGM has Minnesota’s projected win total set at nine for the 2021 NFL season. Keep in mind, the Vikings will be playing a 17th game in 2021, so if that record ended up happening, the team would be 9-8 in the regular season. That might be enough for a postseason berth.
Among NFL North teams, the Packers have the highest projected win total with 11 victories. The Vikings have the second-most projected wins in the NFC North.
