Do you want the Vikings to win or lose tonight?

If the Vikings win, they would play the Seahawks at home in the first round (and will claim the NFC North title for the first time since 2009)

If the Vikings lose, they would play the Packers away in the first round.

I know it's hard to hope for a Vikes loss, but do we want to play the same red hot team that beat us 38-7 at home, or a struggling Packers team? I can't decide because I'd love a division title but think the Packers would be an easier opponent next week, so I want to know what you want!

I don't understand why anybody would cheer for a Vikings loss. If you can't beat a team, you're not good enough to be champs. Does it really matter if we win one playoff game if we can't beat the next team we play?

I'll take the division crown and give top effort against whoever comes out way.

You have passed the exam!

Good answer, DK.

If you want to make a SB run you will likely either have to beat the Seahawks or the team that beats them regardless, so no, I see no reason to hope for a loss from either teams perspective. Especially yours, being swept by your division rival is not a good look.

Oh and, you would get the Seahawks at Home and the Packers on the Road, I know we lost a couple home games this year, but those are the outlier and Lambeau is an amped up place in the playoffs.

'You play to win the game!'

I hope we whup you guys tonight and then put those #### Seahawks in the dirt next week, and I assume the same goes for most of you in reverse.

Furthermore, if we can't beat the Pack this week, what in the world would make fans think we could a week from now?

I'd love to seek revenge on Seattle. They made us look horrible at home. We have a chance to revenge GB's and SEA"s thumping of us at home the next two weeks (I hope).

I think they should focus on tanking for a draft pick at this point...I mean the refs won't let them win in Lambeau anyway.
They should draft that Boykins kid from TCU....he's like a mix of Tommy Kramer and Kieth Millard.

I was hoping these were the answers I would get! SKOL Vikings! Let's end the Packers' 4-year reign over the NFC North!

@Tex
I remember hearing a rumor that Millard tore a door off of a police cruiser when I was a kid. Never found out if it was true.

I think he is a guy that would be considered 'Type A'

Type AAA.

That guy would have been fun to drink with ... (once). He reminds me of a one of my best friends from childhood who was my neighbor. Not terribly bright, but strong as hell, fun, and a bit crazy.
