Vikings vs Seahawks
An interconference rivalry that only comes around every few seasons, but has produced some legitimately great football, including a 2015 playoff classic decided by a missed field goal in sub-zero cold. Here is the complete head-to-head record, the verified result from the teams' most recent meeting, and everything else worth knowing before the next one.

Series overview
A crossover rivalry, not a division game
The Minnesota Vikings and Seattle Seahawks have never shared a division. Seattle spent its first two decades in the AFC and NFC West before landing in the NFC West for good in 2002, which means these two teams meet on a rotating schedule, typically once every three or four seasons, rather than twice a year like a divisional rival. That rarity is part of what makes the series interesting: there is no built-in bad blood, but the head-to-head record and a genuine playoff classic have quietly made this one of Minnesota's more competitive interconference matchups.
Seattle holds the all-time edge, largely on the strength of a seven-game winning streak that ran from 2012 through 2020. The two teams have also met exactly once in the postseason, a 2015 NFC Wild Card game in Minneapolis remembered as much for the sub-zero temperature as for the final kick. This page is built as a permanent reference for the series: the verified result from the teams' most recent meeting, the full all-time record, the players worth knowing on each side, and a viewing guide that will be filled in honestly once, and if, a future meeting is scheduled.

Minnesota was shut out for the first time all season, managing just 126 passing yards from Max Brosmer on 19-of-30 throwing with four interceptions. Seattle's offense was equally modest through the air, with Sam Darnold completing 14 of 26 passes for 128 yards, but Zach Charbonnet's rushing touchdown and a Seattle defense that forced four turnovers were enough to shut the door. Minnesota entered the game 4-8 on the season; Seattle improved to 9-3.

History of great games
Three meetings, beyond the most recent one above, that defined the series.
Nov 14, 1976Regular season · Metropolitan Stadium
Vikings 27, Seahawks 21
The first meeting between the two franchises, played during Seattle's inaugural NFL season as an expansion team. Minnesota won on the road to open the all-time series 1-0.
Jan 10, 2016NFC Wild Card · TCF Bank Stadium
Seahawks 10, Vikings 9
The only playoff meeting between these two teams, played at -6°F, one of the coldest games in NFL history. Minnesota kicker Blair Walsh had a 27-yard field goal to win it in the final half-minute and pushed it wide left, and Russell Wilson's Seahawks escaped with the win despite scoring just 10 points.
Dec 2, 2019Regular season · CenturyLink Field · Monday Night Football
Seahawks 37, Vikings 30
A back-and-forth shootout under the lights in Seattle. The Seahawks improved to 10-2 with the win, part of the stretch that extended Seattle's winning streak in the series.
Who to know
Key players to watch on both sides
The players most likely to shape the next Vikings-Seahawks meeting, based on each team's current roster and their most recent head-to-head game.
Minnesota Vikings
J.J. McCarthy, QB
Minnesota's starting quarterback and the team's 2025 passing leader with 1,632 yards, 11 touchdowns and 12 interceptions on the season.
Justin Jefferson, WR
The Vikings' top receiving threat, coming off an 84-catch, 1,048-yard 2025 season. He was held to just 4 yards on 2 catches in the teams' November 2025 meeting, a sign of how well Seattle's secondary played that day.
Jordan Mason, RB
Minnesota's lead back and 2025 rushing leader with 758 yards and 6 touchdowns, giving the Vikings a run-first option to lean on if this matchup turns physical again.
Seattle Seahawks
Sam Darnold, QB
Seattle's starting quarterback, who completed 14 of 26 passes for 128 yards and no turnovers against Minnesota in November 2025, managing the game rather than needing to carry it.
Cooper Kupp, WR
The veteran receiver caught 3 passes for 24 yards in the teams' most recent meeting, and remains a reliable possession option in Seattle's passing game.
Kenneth Walker III, RB
Seattle's lead rusher, who carried 13 times for 56 yards and added 3 catches for 18 yards against Minnesota's defense in the November 2025 game.
