Colts vs. Vikings score, live updates: Joe Flacco takes over for Indianapolis as Minnesota looks to bounce back from 2 straight losses

Must read

The Minnesota Vikings and Indianapolis Colts face off in Week 9, with both teams looking for some change as the season hits its midway point. The Vikings got off to a blistering 5-0 start and Sam Darnold had found his way into the MVP discussion. Now, after a couple of losses in a row, the Vikings are looking to get back on track in a crowded NFC North, with all four teams in the division firmly in the playoff mix.

Indianapolis is making a change at quarterback heading into Week 9, turning to Joe Flacco over Anthony Richardson, who, in addition to tapping out for a play because he was tired in Week 8, has not played well this season, completing just 44% of his passes with four touchdown passes and seven interceptions. Through that, though, the Colts are 4-4 and very much alive in the AFC playoff picture, entering the Week 9 “Sunday Night Football” matchup just a half-game out of the final AFC wild-card spot.
