The '''{{nfly|2014}} [[Minnesota Vikings]] [[List of Minnesota Vikings Seasons|season]]''' is the franchise's 54th season in the [[National Football League]] and the first under new [[List of Minnesota Vikings Head Coaches|head coach]] [[Mike Zimmer]]. It also marks the first of likely two seasons in which the Vikings will play their home games at the [[Minnesota Golden Gophers Football|University of Minnesota]]'s on-campus [[TCF Bank Stadium]], while construction of the new [[Vikings Stadium]], slated to open in 2016, takes place on the site of the [[Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome]]. The Vikings will be looking to improve on last season's 5–10–1 record, which saw them go through a quarterback carousel and one of the worst defenses in the league that year, and arguably in Vikings' history.
