The Minnesota Vikings held off a ferocious New Orleans Saints comeback and won the NFC Divisional Round on a last-second 61-yard Hail Mary toss from Case Keenum to Stefon Diggs.
Absolutely incredible finish only thing that could make it better is add the Titanic music. #SKOL #BringItHome #Vikings #Diggs

The Vikings hadn’t won a playoff game since they advanced to the NFC Championship in an eventual defeat against — guess who? — the Saints in 2010. Lifting their own curse, the Vikings had a lot to celebrate.
Here’s how they did in the moments after the play:
Case Keenum
for as terrible as this NFL season has been, the Vikings are one of the best stories in sports. a journeyman quarterback. a fanbase that has been through so much. amazing moment. pic.twitter.com/zvurGyLtHV

Many, many more videos will surface that capture the essence of Minnesota’s wild, wild win over New Orleans. None of them will do the moment justice.
