Well, the turnovers definitely killed them. Without those, they win easily imo. They did a good job of keeping NO off the field offensively. I didn't see any NO games this year, but it sounds like that is their defensive strategy. Bend, don't break and get takeaways.

I thought it was a great game. Do I belive in fate? I almost have to some times. It just seemed, with the turnovers, something the Vikings don't do often, that it was going to be NO's night. Even with Peterson's buttery super grip, the Vikings had a pretty low turnover # this year.

After watching the Vikings all these years, it seems if you are a team on a Cinderella season, the Vikings are the team you want to meet in the NFC championship game. That's 5 NFC Cs they've played in since '78 I believe, and not won.
