The New Orleans Saints vs. Minnesota Vikings wild-card matchup presents, on the surface, as a possible trap game.
The Minnesota Vikings are being touted as the underdogs with an overwhelming consensus of inevitable New Orleans victory. The stats are favorable; the Vikings haven’t won a road playoff game since 2004 and boast the worst postseason road record in the NFL.
Ominously, they were entirely left out of the NFL promo playoff video. Minnesota just hasn’t lived up to the hype that they brought into the season, but like every other playoff team, they still have a chance.
