This Vikings-Saints NFC wild-card game has been an emotional one, with both teams fighting for their playoff lives in a very loud Superdome.
Tensions hit a high mark on the Saints sideline following a third-quarter TD drive by the Kirk Cousins and the Vikings that gave them a 20-10 lead. New Orleans DB Marshon Lattimore, who got burned on a big play on the drive, had to be separated from his defensive backs coach, Aaron Glenn.
This is playoff football and this stuff is going to happen. There is a lot on the line and the players don’t want to lose, obviously.
