6 reasons why I believe the Saints will beat the Vikings in the NFC playoffs

The Minnesota Vikings are the logical pick to win their NFC Divisional Playoff game against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium. They are rested, healthy and playing at home, where they have been almost unbeatable this season. They dominated the Saints 29-19 at this same venue in Week 1 of the regular season. Their defense is the best in the NFL and they are motivated by fate and opportunity. If they can win two games, they'll become the first team to play the Super Bowl in its home stadium.

The Vikings are favored by 5 points for a reason.
