    With Wentz out it’s really knocked an edge of Phili- id have heavily fancied them to give Pats a game with him in.

    What a start for Vikes there- that tight end of theirs is the key (Rudolph?).

    Big big test for Fowles chasing a game now

    Cant believe it. Case keenum single handedly handing the superbowl chance to eagles. Pick 6 and a fumble at the philly 19 yard line. Eagles score a td with 30 secs left in 2nd quarter

    QB is alright for Jags, he can do little more than LOAT can.

    Play calling & Game management from Jags coach was awful.

    This is the first biggest test for Vikings & First real test for our Secondary.
    Lets watch, 20 mins to go and nothing is granted yet!!

    You don't play in 8 Superbowls by being lucky.

    it's just stans way of expressing his displeasure at brady, the GOAT.

    Now that he's there i hope he takes down those eagles.

    LOAT never takes down anyone.

    Refs or Hoodie's cheat sheet will be reason if we go down.

    Foles > LOAT Brady!!

    Sorry Stan, i cannot support the dirty birds (nice nickname :D).

    Foles doesn't deserve a ring and we need Brady to be the GOAT so he needs another ring.

    Lets see Bobby in 2 weeks. Whether Refs are handing yet another ring to LOAT or Foles is winning our first ring!!

    I'm pretty sure the NFL didn't want one side to have home advantage in the Super Bowl so paid the Vikings players a whole heap of money to throw the game. There's no other possible explanation as to how terrible they were both in offense and defence.

    No. The Vikings choke basically every big game they’ve been in. The “Minneapolis Miracle” was just a smoke screen for them choking a 20 point lead in that game. I’d say get out and find another team before you get too attached

    Along with the Bengals they are big time bottlers when the pressures on.

    Yep, unfortunately I have been following them for close to a decade now so am stuck and trying to follow any other team would just feel wrong. I always advise newcomers to the sport to watch a few games, possibly even a season, before deciding who they want to follow. Then if they pick the Vikings I tell them to reconsider. **** at least the Browns are just **** so you never get your hopes up, the Vikings are soul destroying.

    I was watching for 14 years before I picked a team.
    It was the 1996 superbowl and I thought sod it I'll have Patriots it's got England in the name.
    Found it hard to have an affiliation other than that really.

    Guess we'll have to get number 1 seed next year then. Or hope we end up playing against another dome team in the championship game. What other teams play inside in the NFC...? Lions do I think.
