NFC Championship Game: Vikings @ Eagles

[Pessimistic Pete]

The ultimate battle between the two QBs from the 2015 Jeff Fisher Rams



Rooting hard for the Eagles, not "afraid" of any team but still prefer them over playing the #1 defense in their home stadium.

What do you all think of their chances to win as a home underdog again?

 

[VectorPrime]

I'd much rather the Eagles win. I wanted the Vikings out today so I'm pretty pissed with how that ending went down.

Eagles win another low scoring game.

 

[wizwor]

The League's #1 Defense let the League's #2 Offense walk down the field and go up two. Their less regaled Offense then scored a touchdown to win the game. Two highly regarded defenses gave up nearly 70 points this afternoon. BRING THEM ON!

The Eagles will win next week. Kenum won't be able to handle the Eagles D.

 

[BobDigital]

Should be interesting. You'd think the Vikings would be a team that would travel well outdoors but you never know.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

I don’t know if minnesota can win in the cold

Edit: game time temps around 40 degrees. Weather won’t be a factor.

IF disaster strikes, can you imagine Eagles vs Jaguars in February !???? Ratings would dive.

I don't care. I just want us to get to the big game. I am sure the NFL wants New England vs Minnesota. A Jacksonville vs philadelphia would be a disaster in terms of ratings maybe.

70? Try 80. 87 total points. 7 scored by the Jax D

I’d much rather we worry about beating the very good Jags before we give a goddamn about the outcome of the NFCCG.

Who the hell are we, the Steeler fan base?

Fans can look at ahead all they want. As long as the players don't. Which they won't.

Good point. The posts on patsfans.com will have a meaningful impact on the outcome of next Sunday's game.

That's a player thing. Patriots fans are allowed to think about potential opponents.

I don’t necessarily disagree with you but do you want to look foolish should we lay an egg at home?? It’s entirely possible.

I’d much rather this be a thread about the Jags. I’d never overlook an opponent like “that” fan base did. It was embarrassing and they were made to look like the sublime lunkheads they really are.

We are above that.

Maybe? They would have to schedule a charity game between New England and Minnesota and air it before SB kickoff.

 

[Pats1989]

Yes I realize what happened in SB 49. Generally elite D's tend to beat elite offenses in the SB. SB 36, 37, 42, 48, 50 exemplify this. It's what gives me pause about a possible Pats and Vikes/ Eagles SB.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Am I the only one worried that, if it's a pats-vikings super bowl, the NFL will rig the game so the vikings can win in their own stadium? it would be a great storyline for their franchise...

Philly is a major market

If its MN/JAX the Puppy Bowl will have higher ratings
