Featured Discussion Saints vs. Vikings NFC Wild Card Game Day Thread

[SmashMouth]

The NFL playoffs are here and the Saints are ready to host yet again.

The Minnesota Vikings head to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome Sunday for the Wild Card round of the NFC playoff bracket. The Saints (13-3) lost the tiebreakers to both the San Francisco 49ers and Green Bay Packers, who earned the top two seeds and first-round byes despite finishing with the same record.

It's the first playoff game in the Superdome since the infamous no-call game in the NFC Championship last season. The Vikings (10-6) are the NFC's lowest seed, but carry some playoff demons of their own. The Saints-Vikings matchup in the Divisional Round of the 2017 season ended with a stunning touchdown to Stefon Diggs as time expired to give the Vikings the win. Minnesota has a new quarterback since that game, with Kirk Cousins taking over for Case Keenum the past two seasons. The last time they met was Week 8 of the 2018 season, a game the Saints won 30-20 in Minneapolis.
