The Minnesota Vikings find themselves on top of their division and will come into their Week 12 battle with the once-formidable Atlanta Falcons booming with confidence. Although the Vikings actually came from a loss against the Green Bay Packers, they still are leading the pack, thanks to an upset pulled off by the Chicago Bears against the Packers on Thanksgiving.
While they're currently boasting a 7-3 win-loss card, such a bad performance last week must be thrown out, especially that the season is heading to a close and everyone is fighting for their respective spots. But if there's one team that Minnesota would want to face right now, it should be no one else but the Falcons. Yes, they started the season 5-0, trumping opponents along the way. However, they've lost their last three games and may not even reach the playoffs should they keep on losing.

The fact is tomorrow's game will have very significant effects for both teams since the Falcons are hanging by a thread, while the Vikings would want to go up to a higher ranking in the NFC.
With six games remaining in their regular season, the Vikings still have their destiny in their own hands. They'll be facing the Packers in their last game, but they will have to contain and focus on beating a still challenging and difficult matchup against the 6-4 Falcons.
But there really is a much bigger stake for Atlanta in this one, considering that their consecutive losses have put them in a position that is quite rare in the NFL. So far, there are only 13 teams that missed the playoffs after carving out five wins in their first five games. Of course, the Falcons wouldn't want to be the 14th team to be on that list.
