The Minnesota Vikings know how to put on a show. After forcing a fumble and recovering it in the first quarter against the Packers, the Vikings’ defense celebrated in the end zone together by reenacting the choreography from the “We’re All in This Together” scene in Disney’s High School Musical.

The hilarious moment immediately spread like wildfire on the internet, as fans raved about the creative celebration and simultaneously wondered when the players had had time to learn it. However, viewers shouldn’t have been too surprised, considering this isn’t the first time the Vikings’ defense has paid homage to a Disney classic.

After Vikings safety Theo Jackson picked off Seahawks QB Geno Smith to seal the win last Sunday, the defense performed a dance from Camp Rock, another popular Disney musical from 2008. With back-to-back weeks of jaw-dropping celebrations, NFL fans are wondering what’s next for the always-entertaining Vikings defense.

AJ Brown saves the day after making a huge mistake

Philadelphia Eagles receiver AJ Brown made a colossal mistake during Sunday’s 41-7 Week 17 home victory over the Dallas Cowboys (7-9). 

After hauling in a third quarter touchdown pass from Tanner McKee, Brown interacted with the crowd at Lincoln Financial Field before chucking the ball into the stands. When Brown returned to the sideline, he realized he had just given away McKee’s first NFL touchdown ball.

Brown vowed to get it back, making a deal with the Eagles fan who reeled in his pass. Brown offered up his game jersey in exchange for the ball, which the fan accepted.

Brown stuck to his word after the game, making his way to the end zone and delivering the fan his jersey, which he signed. 

McKee, the former Stanford standout, was thrust into the starting lineup after Kenny Pickett left the game with a rib injury. Pickett started the game in place of Jalen Hurts, sidelined with a concussion.

Pickett went 10-of-15 for 143 yards and a touchdown before leaving the game, and the offense didn’t skip a beat with McKee under center. McKee completed 3-of-4 passes for 54 yards and two scores as Philadelphia made it look easy against the Cowboys’ defense.
