The odds are far more significantly weighted for a Saints win...

Don't talk odds: The Saints odds were 96% in favor of a win against the Vikings when Keenum launched that pass to Diggs. Like I said all "Ifs and buts, Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda......

Going from 4 percent to 100 percent win probability is amazing in of itself, but it is more impressive that Keenum and Diggs were not only able to connect on a pass that traveled 27 yards in the air, but tack on 34 yards after the catch for a score. Last season, quarterbacks completed just 160 of 570 (28 percent) passes that traveled at least 25 yards past the line of scrimmage. Just 23 of those 160 also saw at least 20 yards after the catch. Even less (20) reached the end zone. Not only did the Vikings overcome incredible odds to win, they did it with a play that failed 28 out of every 29 times it has been tried in 2017.
