The Minnesota Vikings (6-6-1) face the Miami Dolphins this afternoon at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

The Vikings are coming off last week's 21-7 loss to the Seahawks. The Dolphins beat the Patriots 34-33 on a last-minute 'miracle' play.

If the season ended right now, the Vikings would be in the playoffs. Unfortunately, there are thee games left in the season -- and the Vikes have been sputtering.
