Saquon Barkley and the New York Giants will visit Justin Jefferson and the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC wild card round. Here’s everything to know about the game.
The Minnesota Vikings’ postseason quest to win their first Super Bowl begins Sunday.
The first hurdle for the Vikings, who last reached the Super Bowl in 1976 and are one of 12 current NFL franchises yet to win a championship, is aThe two teams needed every second of their Christmas Eve matchup to determine a victor, with Minnesota kicker Greg Joseph converting a career-long 61-yard field goal as time expired to lift the Vikings to a 27-24 win. The Giants’ strategy in that matchup was to minimize big plays.
They’ll need all the help they can get against Kirk Cousins and the Vikings, who had the second-most passing yards in the NFL this season at 4,818 and averaged the eighth-most points at 24.9 per game. Attempting to keep pace will be Giants’ fourth-year quarterback Daniel Jones, who has posted career bests this season in completions, attempts, passing yards, interception rate, rushing yards and rushing touchdowns. That included a career-high 30 completions against the Vikings earlier this season. But with limited receiving weapons, the Giants enter the game averaging just 185.7 passing yards per game, seventh fewest in the league.
