I’m sorry, how’s the Vikings 14-3 again? This is a beatdown. 

(1) 4-2:  vs NFC North: Lions swept them. They swept Chicago, Green Bay.
(2) 4-0: NFC North drew AFC South as their cross-conference schedule (NFC north was 14-2 against the AFC South) AFC South was 25-43.
(3) 3-1: NFC North played NFC West (Az, SF, Sea, Rams) - loss to Rams. (Lions: 4-0; Bears: 1-3; Packers: 4-0); NFC West was 34-34.
(3) 2-0: 3rd place 2023 finish allowed them to draw 2 games against the other 3rd finishers from last year's NFC (NYG, Atl)
(4) 1-0: Jets

Basically, they drew a relatively easy schedule and were 9-1 in 1-score games.

I think the NFL got ahead of themselves with tweaking the playoffs because a 14-2 team had to play a road game. The Vikings and their QB are dogshit...no offense to dogshit. 

I do not think they are dogshit.  They ran into a good team that is healthy: The Rams.

Rams were 8-4 in games Kupp played (2-3 with him out).  They were 8-3 in games w/ Nacua.  8-3 when they both played.

The Rams are a team that had beaten them earlier in the season.  Rams were 1-3 against the NFC North, the lone win coming against Minnesota.  Losses to Chicago and GB: both Kupp and Nacua were out.  Lost to Lions in OT.

2 bad losses: 40-10 to Az - oof.  37-20 to Philly (Barkley had 255).  The Rams final regular season game saw them sit 8 starting offensive players and lose 30-25 to Seattle.

After starting 1-4, the Rams went 9-3 in their final 12 games.
