they won their playoff game....we didnt

haha so true man....that is exactly how you advance in the playoffs

Because they haven't played Philadelphia yet.

Its simple. They have a good HC, a good QB, and motivated players.

umm are you serious about the motivated players?

I think the guys were pretty jacked up and were motivated

Minnesota's defense against Philadelphia
Gave up 300 yards passing, 67 yards rushing, got 1 interception

Arizona's defense against Atlanta
Gave up 199 yards passing, 60 yards rushing, got 2 interceptions

Arizona defense against Carolina
Gave up 205 yards passing, 75 yards rushing, and got 5 interceptions


Number of drives started within their own 30 yard line:

Vikings against Philly - 11
Cardinals against Atlanta - 8
Cardinals against Carolina - 5


But yeah, let's put it all on the quarterback. That's a plan

Ya it is funny how people like to put blame on one person for a loss

Football is the ultimate team game it is a very rare ocassion when blame can soley be placed on one person

i always said "If we get pass philly, you can stamp us to the superbowl" If we beat philly, we would beat the panthers. then we would beat the giants again. We just match up bad against philly

I also agree with this

I wish we faced any other team than Philly

The Cardinals are in the NFC Title game and the Vikings are not because:

The Cardinals score points.

They are able to score points due to their ability to throw the ball.

Which is something the Vikings lack.

The Vikings lack this offensive characteristic due to poor decision making/lack of intelligence at the QB position and passing play calls totally void of creativity.
