Saints vs Vikings: Bold Predictions - Wild Card edition

It’s a pretty common occurrence for fans and analysts to make bold predictions about a game or season. If the prediction doesn’t come true, then that’s OK - you said it was bold! If it DOES come true, though... now you look like a genius!

So in that spirit, some of the Canal Street Chronicles writers were asked to share with me a bold prediction or two for the wild card round this postseason: a rematch of the Minnesota Miracle, this time in New Orleans with the Saints hosting the Minnesota Vikings.

Here are a few of the bold predictions provided by some of the contributors at Canal Street Chronicles:

• Dalvin who? - Dalvin Cook doesn’t have 100 yards from scrimmage, much less 100 rushing yards. (Chad)

• Let’s get crazy - Alvin Kamara throws a touchdown pass to Taysom Hill. (Adam)
