Fans Enjoy Vikings Win In Playoffs

The Minnesota Vikings have advanced to the NFC Championship game with Sunday's 29 - 24 victory over the New Orleans Saints.

It nearly didn't happen.  After jumping out a 17- 0 lead, Drew Brees threw for three second-half touchdowns and the Saints eventually took a 24- 23 lead into the final minute.

The Vikings got the ball back with 25 seconds left to play.

After picking up one first down, the Vikings went deep down the right sideline, Case Keenum to Stefon Diggs.  He slipped the defender, stayed on his feet and went 61-yards for the touchdown.

It's already being dubbed the Minneapolis Miracle.  The Vikings advance on to the NFC Championship game and will play at Philadelphia coming up Sunday evening with the kick off at 5:40 p.m.
