Without wishing to project too much, I have a feeling that all four wild card teams will be favorites for this weekend. Anyone know if that has ever happened before?

 

Well there is a very strong cold front that will be in Minneapolis by Sunday so at least the Vikins will have a weather advantage since the game will be played outside.

Not sure I buy that being a significant advantage for the Vikings. Theoretically, it'd make both teams rely a bit more on the run, which considering "hand the ball off to Adrian Peterson" is Minnesota's entire gameplan, doesn't really help matters. Seattle, meanwhile, is more than capable of running all over Minnesota (173 rushing yards in the previous game this year compared to 260 passing), so shifting the balance over a bit doesn't really hurt the Seahawks.
