I like our chances, I really do. I'll take Brees 12 playoff games and experience over Keenum's 0. I love the fact that Saints players, coaches and fans are quite cocky.

Would be pretty crazy to see Vikings play in the Super Bowl basically with home field advantage at their home turf though.

But seriously, we saw a good example of what playoff inexperience can do to a pretty good Rams QB and team. The game just moves differently in the playoffs. 1 minute ago, leesburg 04 said: Umm you won a super bowl a few years ago. You are older than 8 aren't you? LOL That's what I'm saying.

Cobalt Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 @supernovasky Also saw playoff inexperience firsthand with the Redskins, against 2 already established teams. That or the Redskins won a crappy division. Probably a mix both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically the AFC team is the home team. And the Vikes did host a SB near and dear to many in this region! Redskins won at the metrodome in 1992.

Tarkenton era still lives. Back before free agency, franchise cores of players caused a lot of fans to latch on outside of their home State. That doesn't happen nearly as much anymore. The Chargers are still my second favorite team becuase of the Fouts, Chandler, Joiner era. Those 4pm Chargers games in the late 70s/early 80's were so fun to watch. Same thing with the Cowboys, Steelers, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing with the Cowboys, Steelers, etc. When I was a teenager growing up in Steeler country, I fell in love with Earl Campbell. Unfortunately for his Oilers, they kept losing to the dynasty in Pittsburgh in the playoffs year after year. Being a fan of Houston and later the Titans has meant a lot of heartbreak, similar to being a Vikings fan (or an Eagles fan.). Never more so than being one yard away from winning their only Super Bowl appearance. I will be pulling for them again Saturday night against Brady and Co., still waiting for that first taste of glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gymengineer Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Collective board wisdom is pretty cool. The exact scenario described on here by us for like a whole week— iced sidewalks with rain at above freezing temps— verified. And broadcast mets were still saying no problems until the advisory came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 The Vikings fans should plan for a gathering at a Viking bar for the game this weekend. Heck, I'd be a fan for the weekend. I miss Bud Grant and the Purple People Eaters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
