Welcome to the Friday edition of the Pick Six newsletter! The NFL postseason is finally here! Over the next three days, we're going to see a total of six playoff games and I'm excited for every single one of them.

For those searching for hope after the 14-win Vikings’ playoff hopes were deflated by the season’s worst loss, a handful of coaches and players can say they’ve been in a similar spot and managed to win a Super Bowl.

The Minnesota Vikings tried their best to have a season that everyone would be proud of and they achieved that. Even though they didn’t win the NFC North, they went 14-3 and are poised for a potential playoff run where they can get their revenge in a potential third matchup with the Lions.
