Cardinals hope to end this streak that has lasted 47 years

The Arizona Cardinals face the Minnesota Vikings this coming Sunday. It is the third time in the last four seasons they are opponents.

The game kicks off at 1 p.m. ET at U.S. Bank Stadium.

The Cardinals are hoping they can do something they have not done since I was a baby 47 years ago — win in Minnesota.

The last time the Cardinals beat the Vikings on the road was in November of 1977. That day was a 27-7 win and had an interesting storyline that followed.

Since then, the Cardinals have played in Minnesota 11 times and have lost all 11 times.

The Cardinals and Vikings have faced one another 30 times since 1963, including two postseason games, with the Vikings leading 18-12 all-time (16-12 in the regular season and 2-0 in the playoffs).
