The results are in for the first SB Nation Reacts polls of the regular season for our Minnesota Vikings, so let's take a look at how everyone is feeling on the eve of the new campaign.
We had two questions for you this week, with the first one being the question that we'll be asking every week this season going forward: How confident are you that the Vikings are moving in the right direction? While the number is above the 50% mark, it isn't quite as high as we've seen it at the start of seasons in the recent past.
Of those who responded to our poll, 60% feel that the team is, in fact, moving in the right direction. As we've generally stated, this can mean different things to different people, but there are still a lot of questions that need to be answered about our favorite squad as we head into the season opener. Hopefully we'll get some positive answers to those questions on Sunday afternoon against the hated Green Bay Packers.
Speaking of that matchup, our other question for this week was how you think the purple will fare in their first game of the season. Our readers feel, overwhelmingly, that our team will come out with a victory, though the margin seems to be up for some debate.
Of those who responded to our poll for this week, 48% believe that the Vikings will emerge victorious by a touchdown or less, while another 34% believe that they'll win by an even greater margin. So, 82% of those who responded to our question for this week believe that our favorite team will be getting off to a 1-0 start to the 2026 season, which is nice. Of those who believe that the Vikings will be starting 0-1, the numbers. . .which somehow add up to 101% rather than 100% because of rounding errors (I ****** ume) that I haven't seen. . .have a slight lean towards the Vikings losing by more than a touchdown than they do toward them losing by less than that.
