Greatest Playoff Win Of All Time Tournament, Game 1

Hi kids, are you ready for some Vikings March Madness? Let’s get our tournament started with our first matchup. I’ll give some highlights of each game, and I’ll put a poll at the end. The poll will be open for about 24 hours, you guys get to vote, and the winner by popular vote will advance. Today, our tournament kicks off with our first playoff win match up: the 1969 NFL Championship game against the Cleveland Browns against the 1976 Divisional playoff matchup against the Washington Redskins.

1969 NFL Championship: This was the highwater mark for the 1969 team, who went 12-2 in the regular season, and had squeaked by the Los Angeles Rams a week before in the divisional playoff round.
