The Minnesota Vikings and Indianapolis Colts have a unique history together. The NFL recognized that and the potential for their matchup to have an added layer and flexed their game.
Their 2024 matchup was set to be played at Noon in Week 9, but now fans will have to stay up a little later. Because it is part of the NFL’s Sunday Night Schedule, it will now benefit from a national audience.
The game will air on NBC and Peacock on November 3, two days before the NFL Trade Deadline.
The last time these two teams played was on December 17, 2022. That game went down in history as the Vikings completed the largest comeback win in NFL history when they clawed back from a 33-0 deficit at halftime. At the time the Colts were riding with Jeff Saturday as their interim coach and were gearing toward a rebuild.
Two years later, the Colts have their rebuild roster but are still finding their way. The Vikings could have a chance to showcase themselves in front of the entire nation with an impressive team and record to boot.
