Yes, this could affect the Vikings in some way
As things stand right now in the NFC playoff picture, the Minnesota Vikings are (I believe) the only team that can prevent the Philadelphia Eagles from capturing the #1 seed in the conference playoffs.
The only way that can happen is if the Vikings win their last three games (vs New York, at Green Bay, at Chicago) and have the Eagles lose their last three (at Dallas, vs New Orleans, vs New York)....
