He just scored a 61-yard field goal that Greg Joseph beat the Giants 27\u201324 three weeks earlier. <\/p>\n<p>To see how little respect Vikings are, all you need to do is turn on any of the national sports channels.  On ESPN, Max Kellerman and his two other talking heads chose the Giants to defeat the Vikings. <\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-b not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\"\/>\n<p>&#8220;The Vikings recently beat the Minnesota Giants on a 62-yard field goal,&#8221; Kellerman said, mistaking Joseph&#8217;s kick for yardage. Right? They&#8217;re a close, even team. The Vikings won one.

They finally found it in December,&#8221; wrote Greg Rosenthal.  \u201cThis group of receivers is good enough. The Vikings played more man coverage in the second half of the season, made more blitzes, but ultimately it&#8217;s a passive defense that struggles with RPO. Trending this week. I hate picking big upsets, but the Giants wanted this matchup.\u201d Minnesota&#8217;s first one-point loss of the season is brutal when it matters most.  \u201d<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-3\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-3\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-3\"\/>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-b not-size-c not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-3\"\/>\n<p>Did no one notice that the Giants started 6-1 and finished 9-7-1?

And they went 1-4 along the way. <\/p>\n<p>The Vikings are 5-3 in home playoff games since 1998.
