Heading into Week 16 of the 2017 NFL season, the NFC North was one of the most polarizing divisions in the league. The Minnesota Vikings had already locked down the division title and the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers were eliminated from the playoffs.
Now, it is confirmed that only one team from the division will represent the NFC North, but there is still the question as to whether or not the Minnesota Vikings will get that first round bye or even home field through to the Super Bowl.
Sadly, the road to the Super Bowl for Minnesota still goes through Philly, but the Vikings are still hoping to grab that bye and get as much home field advantage at U.
