QB J.J. McCarthy threw for a career-high 250 yards and two touchdowns and also rushed for a score as the Vikings beat the Cowboys 34-26 on Sunday night.

For the first time since December of 2003, the Minnesota Vikings, Timberwolves and Wild all won games on the same day.

The Vikings coach criticized his quarterback's touchdown celebration and said he would have preferred McCarthy sprint into the end zone.

The Minnesota Vikings released their final injury report of week 15, and it brought some (possibly) good news on Christian Darrisaw.

The Minnesota Vikings are a National Football League team that plays in the NFC North division. The Vikings have yet to win a Super Bowl title over the course of their history.

After putting forth a dominant display in primetime star edge rusher Jonathan Greenard will not play again this season. He aggravated a lingering shoulder injury on Sunday night at AT&T Stadium and will get surgery to get it fixed.

The Minnesota Vikings could be without Christian Darrisaw on Sunday as he missed a second straight practice to open the game.

Now that the playoffs are officially out of the picture, the emphasis will be on developing quarterback J.J. McCarthy down the stretch.
