Right now, Vikings Twitter is in all caps mode, but itā€™s not without good reason. Seeing the team overcome a 33-point deficit, the largest margin in NFL history, to win the game in overtime is something to shout about.

Everyone celebrating the unprecedented victory has caps mode locked, shouting out stats and sharing graphics about what this historic win means for Minnesota.

Itā€™s already being dubbed ā€œanother Minneapolis miracle.ā€

Itā€™s another opportunity to reflect on Aaron Rodgers laughing at anyone in the NFC North thinking this year is their year. Well, 2022 certainly belongs to the Minnesota Vikings.

Best memes and tweets from an unrivaled Matt Ryan Colts meltdown

While history was being made during this second Minneapolis Miracle, so were memes that perfectly captured the situation.

Aside from the memes, thereā€™s plenty of spicy commentary about this game, especially the questionable calls that were made against the Vikings that the team still managed to overcome.

Thereā€™s already a debate about whether or not this is the greatest comeback in sports history.

But itā€™s not just onlookers who are responding to the emotional turmoil experienced during this game. Players themselves shared their joy following the win, with the receivers group coming together for a coordinated slide.

Although Vikings fans shared more sarcastic memes as the early Colts lead grew, the comeback reminded Minnesota fans why they keep coming back.

As difficult as it can be to endure heartbreak as a Vikings fan, the hardship makes every victory taste that much sweeter.Ā And with an 11-3 record atop the NFC North, itā€™ll be hard for future Minnesota teams to top what the 2022 team has managed to accomplish time and time again.
