Can the Vikings beat the 3rd seed, weather it's Saints or Seahawks?
I feel like the Eagles are going to lose against which ever NFC West Loser they face (Seahawks or 49ers).
The Saints vs Vikings might be an interesting game, not only because Saints went up to the Vikings and the Vikings stole one with the Minneapolis Miracle... but because the Vikings are set up to stop the pass, and the Saints defense is banged up, which might give the Vikings offense a better chance. And Vikings MIGHT be able to steal another one... (though of course I'm thinking Saints).
Then (assuming the Vikings lose) the loser of the NFC West, beats the Eagles... and goes onto face the #1 seed.... so either 49ers come to Green Bay (if Seahawks win the division) or Seahawks go back to the 49ers (if the 49ers win the division)...
I think I rather not face that 49ers team (if possible)... and almost would rather face the Saints. Though they might be equally good as they battled it out in a very close game.... but right now the Packers need to face weaker defenses do give the Packers offense a chance.
It might be better if the Seahawks lose the division game, then go face the 49ers and hopefully win.... then the Seahawks go on to face the winner of the Packers vs Saints.
Just some rambling thoughts.
