Vikings game just ended.

That was a beautiful game.

All along I was hoping that we'd end up playing against the Cowboys, because beating an Eagles team you badly wanted to exact revenge does not = hottest team in playoffs. The team still had Romo at QB and Phillips as coach...

Not that Romo had a lot of support from his offensive line, but still... 3 fumbles (2 lost) and an INT = not good at all. He had pretty much no big plays... which would I hope be an indication of a great defensive performance, but is probably also owes a little bit to the fact that... you know, Romo kind of sucks.

Also, that last touchdown was totally necessary. You have an opposing team who had the media fellate all week long, so you score the touchdown to make the media look even more stupid. Also it sends a message that we are not to be taken lightly. Besides, everyone else would have done it after being given no chance all week long. That was an FU play, and it was glorious.

So I have no idea if we're going to be the Saints next Sunday, but I think we have a puncher's chance to pull off the upset. Our D is playing well... probably not nearly well enough to stop the Saints O, but I think we can keep up with them, at least. Probably will come down to whether or not we can take the wind out of the Saints' (and their fans') sails. Also, if no one gives us a chance during the week, I think we have more of a chance. That whole "nobody believed in us" card is pretty powerful.
