1973 Minnesota Vikings season
The 1973 Minnesota Vikings season was the franchise's 13th season in the National Football League. The Vikings regained the NFC Central title after a disappointing 7–7 record the previous season, as they finished with a record of 12 wins and two losses. They started the season 9–0 and looked a threat to the previous year’s Dolphins’ record of a perfect season before losing to the Atlanta Falcons and Cincinnati Bengals in their next three games. Their narrow 10–9 win over the Los Angeles Rams constituted the last time until 1997 that the last two unbeaten NFL teams played each other.
