I hate-watched the 2009 NFC title game. I'm ready for Sunday. I can't believe Drew Brees is still their QB slinging the ball around. He's not the player we saw in 2009. Still perfectly capable of beating us if we're not on our A game but I have to like the Vikings in this game. I just hope we don't get some awful version of Case Keenum in the playoffs. That's the one pessimistic take I can't shake from my head.

[Nick@Night]

I hope the pass rush can punish fuck Brees in to a terrible game (treat him like the Saints did Favre in '09).

I'm terrified.

I have no words guys. No words.

I will be posting some of my pictures from the game later this week once I get a chance to do a write up about them, but here is an early taste of where I was when it all happened:

I'm still watching videos of that last play. Time to take care of the Eagles on Sunday.

[42graystreet]

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH FUCK YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Words don't do that experience justice. The greatest sporting event I've ever attended. I don't know if we're a team of destiny but won't be surprised if we #BringItHome

Philly will obviously be a tough game. 2 great defenses battling it out. Points will be at a premium. I do trust our offense against their D a little more than their offense against our D. Advantage Vikings. Skol bitches!

I do hope Andrew Sendejo is okay and can play.

[42graystreet]

Still watching reaction videos and basking in the glory. Haven't thought for a second about the game on Sunday. Assuming Zim and the team are actually preparing

[Nick@Night]

I think we're all living in that moment for as long as possible, preparing for possible letdown on Sunday. No matter what, we'll always have that.

Also, did you see that Diggs is selling merchandise to commemorate the play?

I get the significance, but I hope we are also moving forward too. I heard Case say today he’s still replying to people that have reached out to him. I’d like focus to be on PHI, nothing else. I know that’s not possible...

That's great although I wonder how he gets around NFL lawyers to do that. Unless players make a side deal.

No NFL logos so he should be good.

[AJF_41]

[42graystreet]

Holy fucking shit. We are dog shit out there. Unbelievable.

I guess I was wrong when I said earlier this week that only fans were celebrating all week and the team was preparing. No evidence of that whatsoever.

[bustedstuff88]

On the bright side, this sets up well for another soul crushing defeat in 8-9 years!

[DMBzilla]

I’ll hand it to you guys - way more purple jerseys in our house than I expected. Too bad many left at halftime. Not kidding.

Can you blame them? After only seeing a couple of videos of Philly fans, I would have too.

Doesn’t last week prove that anything can happen? Tickets in my section were going for $1000+ and a father and son literally left at the half and never came back. Saw it happening all over. Pretty surprising.

My point was that the "hospitality" of Eagles fans was only going to get worse as the game went along. While the game was still in doubt, there was no good option for a fan wearing purple no matter how that game turned out.

Even with my team on the door step of a super bowl that they haven't qualified for in over 40 years, there is no way I would go to philly to watch my team. Not even a free ticket.

[AJF_41]

say it explicitly UNLT. philly fans are the epitome of shithole. i've seen dozens of videos of philly fans fighting and throwing beer at opposing team. shit there's a video of them doing to the vikes team bus when it's leaving. joke of a fan base.



on to next year i guess. god, that was awful. didn't even show up.

Don’t want to come that’s fine, but these are folks who bought tickets knowing full well that they were entering into hostile territory. They had to have an idea of what to expect.

That said, I saw nothing bad in the stadium. Most of the Vikings fans took it in stride and were laughing with us. Idiots in the lots pregame likely didn’t even have tickets.

So do they bring back Keenum next year? Teddy? Bradford?

Sad day, but this team overcame a lot of adversity this year and made it deep into the postseason. Proud to be a fan today and everyday. SKOL!
