Throwback Thursday: Minnesota Vikings 1970s All-Decade Team

Last week was the best Vikings of the 1960s. This week it's the Minnesota Vikings 1970s All-Decade Team. Three Super Bowl appearances. Six Hall of Fame players. Hall of Fame coach. Hall of Fame general manager. It was a fine decade. It would have been a better decade if the Vikings had found a way to win at least one of those Super Bowls.
