NFL Playoffs 2020: 20 Bold predictions for Wild Card Round
By Dan Parzych
1. Saints beat Vikings by double-digits
Revenge will be on the minds of the New Orleans Saints Sunday afternoon when taking on the Minnesota Vikings to help the team feel better about what took place two years ago.
Unfortunately, a win over the Vikings isn’t going to change the outcome of what took place in the Divisional Round two years ago, but at least it will help the Saints advance this time around to potentially earn a trip to the Super Bowl down the road.
Defeating a Minnesota team with the weapons they have to work with on both sides of the football will be far from easy, but the argument can be made that New Orleans is the much better team on paper.
All season, the Saints have been considered one of the top teams in the NFC, and were even in position to earn the top overall seed at one point before missing out on a few opportunities.
Watching this team continue to be a top contender in the NFC over the last three seasons makes it clear that New Orleans is capable of making a run at the Super Bowl, and if they can manage to jump out to an early lead over Minnesota, this could be an easy win for the Saints.
