As a fan and this year? I could really care less if they made the playoffs or not - I just dont see them doing much if they do. 

That said...

 I would like to see em get there as a reward to the players and coaches for hanging in there and working hard in 23.

I always want to see the team fighting for a playoff spot each year, makes the season fun. Although I'm a long time disappointed fan, I can't just sit there, arms folded, and say 'Superbowl or bust'. I don't think they'll go far either, but at the same time, you really never know. I guess its the journey for me since we've never had anything other than that as Viking's fans.

Yep, Minnesota has a 2 game hold on the last playoff seed still.

So Minnesota woke up and is now the #6 seed, lol. Still has to play Detroit twice. Good place to be even with all of the Viking's injuries and a QB pulled out of the air.

After the Vikings, I am rooting for the 49'ers...Anyone but the Eagles, Cowboys or Saints.

Obviously, things could change for the worse quickly. Losses to Green Bay and Detroit would hurt big time. They also need to win tomorrow night.

Well… crap. The last few weeks haven’t been kind.

We’re now around 50% to make the playoffs and currently sitting at draft pick #18. Plenty of games left but purgatory seems to always be looming over this franchise like a grim reaper, doesn’t it? Let’s beat the Raiders and get that 50% number trending up again.

For the players/coaches, a playoff spot would be some reward for a tough season.

And as a fan, I'd love to sweep GB and take some swagger out of the Lions b4 the year is out.

But w/out Cousins? As the year gets nearer to closure? 

I am almost more about draft position vs making the playoffs with a team w/out a #1 Qb.
