The last few weeks have not been kind to the Minnesota Vikings and their playoff chances. After two back-to-back losses, the Vikings are currently on the outside looking as the eighth seed in the NFC.
At 7-8, Minnesota has backed themselves into a corner where they are fighting the Seattle Seahawks, Los Angeles Rams and Green Bay Packers among others for the final two wild-card spots. This week, they face Green Bay at home in what appears to be a losers-go-home matchup.
With this in mind, only two weeks remain for the Vikings to move into the postseason dance. How do their chances fare against the rest of the NFL?
