The Minnesota Vikings secured a decisive 21-3 victory over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 11 of the 2026 season, solidifying their playoff aspirations. With the win, Minnesota continues to build momentum as they prepare for the home stretch of the season while the 49ers struggle to find their rhythm.
Kyler Murray led the Vikings' offense, throwing for a touchdown and managing the game effectively. However, it was Doug Foster who stole the spotlight with a phenomenal 172 rushing yards, consistently breaking tackles and moving the chains. While the passing game was steady, it was the ground attack that truly set the tone for Minnesota's offensive success.
Defensively, the Vikings applied constant pressure, highlighted by Andrew Van Ginkel's sack, which disrupted the 49ers' offense. San Francisco struggled to find their footing, with Brock Purdy finishing the game with just 113 passing yards. The game's turning point came when Minnesota's defense forced a crucial turnover, allowing the Vikings to extend their lead and control the tempo through the second half.
