The Better Team Lost

I'm so sick of hearing this crap. Reading the Vikings boards, I've seen it no less than 25 times. Please tell me we aren't this whiney?

I have read and heard this also a number of times, but it doesn't really matter who was the better team, the only team that advances is the team that has more points on the scoreboard at the end of the game.

We were this whiney when it happened to us 2 years ago against Minnesota. We felt like we were the better team that night and still lost.

I have no pity for any other fan base.

A better team doesnt fumble 4-5 times and throw a pick with the game on the line. frick them. The Saints get no respect what so ever.

I don't quite recall this, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt in saying that is what "we" did.
However, the Super Bowl wasn't on the line there.
Cry me a fricking river about anyone saying that last night.

I'm very happy if we are not the better team AND going to the Superbowl.

I love watching the Vikings fans and sympathizers cry. It makes the victory that much better. Everyone knows everything that happens in the game is part of the game and whoever has the W on the record is the better team. Case and Point.

Our offense played efficient with their opportunities but other than that, they played fairly poorly. I'll give credit to the vikes D but Simultaneously, you can't take away credit from the Saints for doing what they did to the Vikes all night long. They made the vikes earn most of what they did all night. Gave up very few bigger plays. Made Vikes convert a lot of tough 3rd downs. D played very well considering the Vikes balance they had to worry about.

What does the Weather have to do with anything. The game was in a dome.

That's the beauty of sports. If the better team always won, it would be boring as frick.

I'm thrilled we won, but that was a TOUGH loss for the Vikes! If I were in there shoes I would be extremely frustrated that they could not close the deal.
Too bad. Go Saints.

You are what the scoreboards says you are.
See you in Miami. I'm going to The Who concert.

On the Cowherd show... Trent Dilfer argued the "Better team lost" statement by saying that if the Vikings were the better team they would do the intangibles that make a great team. The Saints showed that they can do the intangibles, and have the composure of a great team. YES, the Saints offense did not produce like a #1 ranked offense; but they still scored 31 points. YES, the Vikings Offense racked up yards, but the had 5 turnovers and could have had at 3-4 more if the Saints recovered. The Saints did enough to win. When the Saints are healthy, like last night, the Saints are undeafeated this season. Who is the better team? I think the Saints showed that they fear no team, and thrive on pressure. WHO DAT!!

I hope the better team loses the Super Bowl, too.
