Vikings and NFC North off to a historic start for the 2024 season

The NFC North is by far and away the most dominant division in the NFL.

For the first time since realignment back in 2002, the NFC North is the first division in which all four teams have at least four wins through the first six weeks of the season.

The NFC North is off to a historic start. All four teams are one through four in point differential in the league and as of now, it’s by far and away the most dominant division in all of football. The Vikings are leading right now with a 5-0 record and while that would typically make fans feel great about how the season is going — Minnesota is still battling for its life. The Packers, Lions, and Bears are all right behind the Vikings with four wins and one slip-up by Minnesota could shake the whole division up.

Of course, the Vikings do hold a head-to-head win against the Packers. Minnesota gets its first taste of playing Detroit in 2024 when the Vikings host the Lions on Sunday.
