Vikings played well against a very hot Seahawks team that has plenty of playoff experience. I have to give credit where credit is due Vikings played very well.Vikings overall are very young & their D is awesome if they can stay healthy they will be a very good team next year. Kicker missed a last second chip shot field goal otherwise the Vikings move on to next playoff game. Seahawks were out played by Vikings but dodged a last second bullet...it happens. Bright future for Vikings with more experience.... the teams in the North know what is coming from MN & have to draft to match up with best of the North & that is not the Pack.

I think the cold got to the Hawks more than it did the Vikes. That being said, I think the Vikes played well and should have won that game. As far as being the best in the North, yes this year they were. But don't be too quick to put a fork in the Pack though, after all, we are still playing!

The Minnesota Vikings are offering their services for funerals serving as pallbearers. They are letting their fans “down” one last time.

Next season the NFC North plays the NFC East who basically suck. Philly and Dallas are going to suck for years. They also play the AFC South who have and always will suck. All four NFC North teams will probably finish over .500. It could easily come down to about the same scenario as this season. Seattle and AZ will be one and two in the west with one getting the wildcard. The same will happen in the NFC North with Green Bay and MN. I don't see anyone in Carolina's division stepping up very much. Bad deal for Chicago to lose Gase. Now Cutler gets another new OC. Detroit is Detroit and will always find a way to screw up.

Welp im going to make my predictions

KC at Houston= KC

KC on the road but a hot team. KC has better QB, both good D's. Think it maybe close but ill take the better coach and QB to win

Pitt at Cincy=Pitt

This one to me is kinda a coinflip. I think Cincy has one of the best rosters in the NFL but the QB is weak sauce, well at least we think. maybe AJ mcarron can surprise some people. I would feel better about this pick if Dalton was playing. cincy has lost last 5 i think playoff games. Not surprised that pitt is favored in vegas. Once again ill take the better coach and QB combo.

Seattle at Minn=Seattle

This one for me is logically easy(But its the NFL). Minn doesnt play well in the spotlight, and they are going up against one of the big boy teams in NFL. I think Seattle not only has a clearly better roster, but also coach and QB, and they are hot and confident. Only thing helping minn is they are at home. Big players play big in big games. I don't think minn scores more than 13 points.

Pack at Skins= Packers

Logically no one in the right mind would pick the packers after how they closed the season out. Cousins is hot, Rodgers cold. Packers Oline and WR's playing bad, defense is mediocre. They are on the road. Skins play well at home. But this one im throwing the logic out and going with a gut feeling. packers show up and Rodgers outplays cousins to win.

good picks by momney last week but they were all the favorites. not to difficult but winner winner chicken dinner.

Pats over KC
Carolina over seattle,,,,,,gonna be a barn burner though.
Denver over Pitt,,,,if Beg Ben was healthy, if Antonio Brown was playing and if they weren't on there 3rd string RB I'd take Pitt. Just too banged up and on the road.
Cards over GB,,,, all the Packers fans here are drinking the koolaid from beating the skins last week. Personally I didn't think it was too impressive of a win. Skins D is about a half a step better than the Saints and we still only passed for 200 yards. I think it'll be a better game than a 3 weeks ago just don't see how the pack can produce enough offense to keep up... can't even believe I typed the pack can't produce enough offense,,,,my how they've fallen off this year...

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut. Good weekend for football!

Pack at AZ= AZ

AZ top 5 D and O this year. Coach and QB in unison. I think this game is closer than people think but just cant see pack beating them out right. Gona take one **** of game plan as pack had no answer for man to man coverage and pressure on rodgers last time. If the pack can get runnin game going this may come down to wire.

Kc at NE= NE

Kc hott but teams they have beaten have losing record. NE got a good rest and under brady/belechcik pats are 14-3 in playoffs at home. Im rooting for KC but cant see smith going in there and outplaying brady. If KC D steps up and pressures brady maybe. Do think its a lower scoring game and hits under 45 as NE front 7 is very good as is KCs

Carolina at Seattle=seattle

Ill take the better coach and QB in this matchup. Lack of offensive weapons for carolina i think finally catches up to them. Seattle makes the most of there break last week. I thought this game would happen about week 15 and am wagering on this one.

Pitt at denver=denver

Pitt banged up, no antonio brown or deangelo williams. Denver D legit. Peyton had 2 weeks to rest, big ben prolly play but wounded. Peyton vs tom in AFC title game one more time.

pack hanging tough at half showing a lot of guts considering were starting our 4th 5th and 6th WR's. (and two of them are white guys who had 11 career receptions going into this game and the other you and I could out run) Hello Richard Rogers you need to step up and make some plays!!
Were gonna need a prayer from the ghost of Vince to pull this one out.
GO PACK GO!!

Great game tonight. Amazing pair of Hail Marys to go into overtime. AZ is a tough team though. Definite a fun game to watch.

The Pack is perfecting the hail mary....LOL.....Proud of my team especially the defense since the second 1/4 of the Redskins game..... Too many injuries on offence along with some dropped passes that weren't happening as often in past seasons. Love the way Bakhtiari played and gutted it out when he was obviously still injured.

Always entertaining nonetheless!

the ending sucked for us packers fans but i'm pretty proud of how the responded to injuries and adversity. We'll be fine next year and continue to be a perennial Superbowl contender.
It was a decent win for the Cards vs our practice squad.
