1998 Vikings: Best Team to Miss Super Bowl | Minnesota Vikings News

About this episode

The 1998 Minnesota Vikings were a powerhouse that dominated the regular season with a 15-1 record, boasted elite talent like Randall Cunningham, Cris Carter, Randy Moss, and a fearsome defense led by John Randle, and ranked second in DVOA—only behind the Broncos. Yet they fell just short of the Super Bowl after losing the NFC Championship to Atlanta, sparking debate over whether they were the greatest team ever to miss the big game. Their explosive offense ranked third in DVOA, with some arguing indoor games and easier schedules skewed the metrics. Still, decades later, their legacy endures as a symbol of how NFL greatness doesn’t always translate to a championship ring.
