MINNEAPOLIS — We’re live from U.S. Bank Stadium, where the Vikings are hosting the Giants three weeks after narrowly defeating their fellow NFC contenders in a Christmas Eve nail-biter. Kirk Cousins and Co. have been nearly perfect at home this year, sporting an 8-1 record in Minnesota coming into the matchup. But New York has proven to be one of the conference’s scrappiest teams, with an improved Daniel Jones guiding his first career playoff run.
Both squads have thrived in tight situations under their first-year coaches, with Kevin O’Connell wisely keeping the ball in Justin Jefferson’s vicinity, and Brian Daboll’s physicality oozing into the Giants’ ball-control attack. Now, it’s time for one of them to go home, and one of them to move on.
A half-decade removed from the “Minneapolis Miracle,” which team is best positioned to continue its miraculous journey? Either way, it’s must-see TV. And we’ve got you covered here, straight from the site of the action, with live updates and analysis.
