Who are they?

Kendricks and Barr. Kendricks is a rookie and Barr is in his 2nd year.

The only team that has better LB's duo who play a 4 man front in the league is Carolina.....and this tandem might start to challenge Kuechly and Davis as soon as next year.

Mckinnon is impressive

if Teddy can hit him accurately once or twice, he could do damage

Had to go see his game stats last night...

Accounted for 33 yard passing, one third of Teddy's total last night. Only ran 4 times for 15 yard, but that's 4 yards a carry and better than AP's 3.5 average on 19 carries.

ARE YOU LISTENING NORV!

I can't imagine a scenario other than the Vikes offensive giving up scores where Seattle puts up 30. Not in the cold during the playoffs against what is now a pretty healthy Vikes D.

Seattle has scored 29 or more points in 7 of their last 8 games.

Dunno if they will score 30 this week but it wouldn't shock me.

IF the Vikes can run effectively, the play action should give Teddy more time...but yeah the Vikes are not a pass team, so get rid of it quickly is right. OR scramble and then throw.

FIFY. Teddy evidently needs just a little more clarification or else he gets confused. :gaah:

Just because the players for the Vikings are playing for that particular team doesn't mean they're more accustomed to cold weather than the players of any other team. It's not like the Vikings only employ people from cold weather environments, and they haven't exactly been playing in 10 degree weather all season either. The weather will affect both teams.

Kind of has to be a closer game this time around. Minnesota will have some guys back from injury I believe and hopefully the officiating isn't as completely terrible as it was last time.

I would say just the law of averages likely pulls the score a bit closer this time. You just can't consistently beat NFL teams by 30. Vikings will have a couple defenders back that weren't in the first game, but of course Seattle is getting some players back too. And are playing at a higher level (according to most unbiased observers) and have the championship pedigree. To me Minn has a puncher's chance but no more. One dimensional teams without top quality QBs just don't beat Seattle's D.

I like the Vikings in this game. Seahawks just don't have the "it" factor this year.

They practice outdoors in MN, when they need to. That gives a bit of an advantage on how to play when toes and fingers start to go numb.

Vikings haven't played an outdoor home playoff game since the 70's. They are no more adapted and experienced IN THAT ENVIRONMENT than Seattle is.

Russell Wilson played college ball at Wisky. He's played in some freaking cold games before.

Rain/Sleet/Snow etc will matter more than the temp. If it's dry the impact will be on both teams. If it's windy and snowing it probably slightly favors Min, but that depends on if Lynch is playing and healthy enough to go all game.

Seahawks will be ready for this game. You can bank on that. Doesn't mean a win, but they aren't coming out flat or worried about the weather. Their energy will be quite high. They have been here before and know what it takes to play 1 and done football. It should be a good game.

they are saying on the news tonight 10 degrees on game day with a wind chill factor making it feel like -4 degrees.. I would say it could become a factor if you dont practice in that kind of weather

Vikings fans are looking for any shread of an advantage because after last game between these 2 we need something:suds:
