The Viking Age’s Adam Patrick and Tyler Haag preview the Minnesota Vikings’ upcoming divisional round matchup against the New Orleans Saints.

After getting some much needed time off last week, the Minnesota Vikings will be back in action this Sunday when they take on the New Orleans Saints in the divisional round of the NFC playoffs. The Vikings will be attempting to take one step closer to becoming the first NFL team to ever play in the Super Bowl at their home stadium.

During this week’s episode of the Bleeding Purple Podcast, myself and Tyler Haag not only looked ahead to the Vikings’ upcoming showdown with the Saints, but we also talked about a number of other Vikings-related topics including…

  • What has changed since the Vikings played the Saints in Week 1?
  • 2017 Drew Brees is not the Drew Brees everyone is used to
  • Minnesota’s secondary is super smart
  • Vikings fans want revenge during the playoffs!
  • Sean Payton’s stupid glasses
  • Backup quarterback is the best job in the NFL
  • Kai Forbath is not as bad as we thought
  • End of season awards!
  • The unbeatable Rams got beat
  • Pat Shurmur status update
  • Vikings/Saints score predictions
