The Minnesota Vikings move on to a Divisional round date Saturday with the San Francisco 49ers after surviving New Orleans and the Saints in overtime, 26-20, Sunday at the Superdome. The game was decided on the first play of the extra session when Kirk Cousins found Kyle Rudolph in the end zone.

The winning score was set up by a 43-yard pass from Cousins to Adam Thielin, who made a wonderful over-the-shoulder catch.
New Orleans players were indicating the Minnesota tight end pushed off to get separation on the play that ended the Wild-Card game. However, no review was made and the Saints were done.
New Orleans seems to have a thing with playoffs and controversy. Remember last season?
