I dont like the setup - weird stuff. This is the kind of stuff that can jinx a team. Someone please walk me away from the ledge.

Sunday will be a great game.  I believe we show up, and can win.  If not, then the Eagles just beat a very good team.  Besides, Zim has a crystal ball on his side.  B)

I saw that earlier. Just the usual mistakes that happen all the time.  Evidently someone sent out something during the game last week showing the Saints vs. the Eagles in the NFCCG. 
As for being jinxed, have we already forgotten about  the Minneapolis Miracle?  That's not a team that is jinxed.

We are not jinxed, talk of that and the curse should be dead after last week's miraculous win

Positive thinking...  Every damn Vikings fan needs to BELIEVE and QUIT expecting the worst.  Zimmer has done nothing to make us doubt him...  All he's done is check off box after box after box...

No team has ever had a winning record in temporary stadium?  Check.

No team has ever made the playoffs in a temporary stadium?  Check.

Vikings can't win in prime time or on the road?  Check.

No team that's hosted a Super Bowl has ever had a playoff bye?  Check.

No team that's hosted a Super Bowl has made it past the Divisional Round?  Check.

There are a bunch more I'm forgetting, but seriously...  he's going to get it done.  He wants it, his players want it, the FANS want it...  IT WILL BE DONE.

BOOM

No reference to back this up, but I'm guessing no team has made the conference championship after losing their starting QB and RB for 12 or more games.

Case's story reminds me a little of Brady in '01. I was only like 15 but I remember watching the Pats from start to finish that season and thinking, well this is a nice little story. And then when they won it all, I was actually happy for the Pats.

This item is for sale on e-bay. A house divided flag, New England / Minnesota. Kind of weird!
