Keenum or Thielen?  

Equal?

Maybe some Elflein votes???

"Now that we're in, we've got to keep winning," receiver Adam Thielen said after the Vikings assured themselves of a home playoff game.
Xavier Rhodes stood on a chair in the locker room, organizing the Vikings’ secondary. Andrew Sendejo yelled for a camera. He forgot what that means in 2017.
Suddenly a bank of mini-cams was training lenses on a photographer taking a picture of players taking phone selfies. The Vikings’ revolution will be recorded redundantly, frame-by-frame.
With a 34-7 victory over Cincinnati at U.S. Bank Stadium on Sunday, the Vikings have staged a coup in the NFC North, which has historically served as a party vehicle for the Green Bay Packers. The Vikings have won the division two of the past three seasons and wrapped up this title with two games remaining while playing their backup quarterback.
“I don’t know if it’s exceeding my expectations because I expect to win every game,” Mike Zimmer said. “But it’s pretty darn good.”
Sendejo put it more succinctly, using his best Jon Snow impersonation to scream, “Kings of The North!”

Keenum's 87.0 completion percentage was the highest by any QB in a game this season with a minimum of 20 attempts. The previous high was 84.4 by teammate Sam Bradford in Week 1 against the Saints. Talk about things coming full circle.

The Vikings (11-3) will get the NFC's No. 1 seed if…
They win their remaining two games (at Green Bay, vs. Chicago) and the Eagles (12-2) lose their final two games (vs. Oakland, vs. Dallas). Philadelphia clinches the NFC's No. 1 seed with a win against the Raiders next week.
The No. 2 seed if…
They beat the Packers and Bears, securing a first-round bye. If the Vikings go 1-1 in the final two games to finish 12-4, they need to avoid a tie with a potential NFC South-champion Panthers (10-4) team, which owns the head-to-head tiebreaker. The Vikings will win head-to-head ties over the Saints (10-4) and Rams (10-4).
The No. 3 seed if... 
They go 1-1 and lose the first-round bye to the Panthers, who need to win out (vs. Tampa, at Atlanta) and have the Saints lose once for Carolina to win its division. Then the 12-win Panthers would leap the Vikings for the NFC's No. 2 seed. If the Vikings go 0-2 in the final two games, they could be leapt by either the Rams or Saints, who both need to win out for a shot at a first-round bye.
The No. 4 seed if... 
They go 0-2 and get leapt in the standings by the Rams and either the Saints or Panthers.

Carolina Panthers owner Jerry Richardson, 81, selling teamCHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers owner Jerry Richardson, amid allegations of workplace misconduct, announced Sunday night in a letter on the team website that he plans to put the NFL team he founded up for sale after the 2017 season.The letter came after Sports Illustrated published a story saying the Panthers settled with at least four former employees regarding inappropriate workplace behavior by Richardson.
"I believe that it is time to turn the franchise over to new ownership,'' Richardson wrote. "Therefore, I will put the team up for sale at the conclusion of this NFL season. We will not begin the sale process, nor will we entertain any inquiries, until the very last game is played.''
