I don't think there's a football fan anywhere that didn't think differently about the first round playoff situation.
But, that said, if it's the last week of the regular season and you're playing for the division title, yet you are afraid of who your first round opponent may be, at HOME, you're probably not superbowl worthy anyway.
A lot of what ifs, but suppose the Vikings won yesterday. Then they go into Arizona and avenge that close loss earlier this season. And Rodgers pulls of a miracle in Carolina. Suddenly the Vikings are hosting the NFC Championship game in two weeks.
I'll put down the crack pipe now. But as Herm Edwards would say, there's reasons "you play to win the game".
Skol Vikings! Next Year's Team Since 1961.
