New York Giants vs Minnesota Vikings NFL Playoffs NFC Wild Card game preview and breakdown for the game on Sunday, January 15

What’s Going To Happen, Who’s Going to Win New York Giants vs Minnesota Vikings NFC Wild Card

You can’t beat Minnesota if you’re not able to crank up at least three touchdowns.

The Giants are a bit more about control, and keeping the defense off the field, and hanging around, and coming up with the big plays needed in the fourth quarter.

Minnesota is all over the map, but …

It’s 12-0 when scoring 24 points or more, and 2-4 when scoring fewer. The Giants have scored more than 24 points just twice all year – against Indianapolis and Green Bay, and who doesn’t do that?

New York has to dictate everything, but the Vikings will ruin that with two big first quarter plays. It’s been missing all year – a really, really good start.

How many times have the scored more than seven points in the first quarter? Never. They haven’t done it.

They’ll do it this time, the Giants will fight back to make it interesting, but one big downfield throw – Justin Jefferson will break loose – will finally open it up a bit.

It’s not going to take a walk-off field goal for the Vikings to get out of this, but they’ll sweat.
