The Minnesota Vikings advanced to the NFC Championship over the New Orleans Saints on the final play of the game, and boy what a play it was.
After Will Lutz of the Saints drained a go ahead field goal with 0:29 seconds left in the fourth, Case Keenum stepped up and completed the biggest pass of his career
Down by one point, Keenum found Stefon Diggs to give Minnesota a 29-24 victory with 10 seconds left. With two guys around him Diggs dodged a hit from Marcus Williams and ran a 61-yard touchdown for the victory.

Great for #Vikings fans, but gotta feel for Drew Brees who turns 39 tomorrow. Not many chances left https://t.co/5xNylOS8vf
This mistake by Marcus WILLIAMS β missing that play on Stefon Diggs β May be the absolute WORST MISTAKE Iβve ever seen in NFL Post-Season History. If itβs not THE worst itβs certainly up there. All the man had to do is make a tackle and the game is over. Horrible, Horrible Error.
