Secondly, the Vikings lost the majority of all their games on road and in outdoor stadiums. This in itself might be one of the bigger factors when I continue to analyze this game.
Lastly, the Vikings also got it done when they needed to..as you mentioned in your post the Vikes weren't going to let them lose @ Green Bay what makes you think they let this be Favres last game of the year?
Your post doesn't talk about the Saints losses or games they could have easily or should have lost.
Panthers (doesn't count because they sat their team)
Cowboys @ Home
Tampa Bay @ Home
Got lucky to beat the Redskins, struggled to put away the Rams and the Falcons.
I haven't made a final play but IMO its best to post both pros and cons for both teams and not just the cons for the team you're betting against and the pros for the team you're backing.
Best of Luck!

You left out the Dolphins. I think the Vikings hang with them and at lease cover if not SU win.
Vikings +4.0
Good teams win games, Great teams cover the spread!

Home field advantage means everything in this game.
Not only has the Superdome's vocal support meant so much to the Saints' success this year... the incredibly loud crowd noise will have an impact on the Vikings offense (hey... it's the same thing opposing QBs gotta deal with when visiting Minnesota).
And... consider this: the home team is 9-0 ATS in L9 Viking games... which included five games at their home Metrodome and four games on the road. The average margin of victory for the winning team in those nine contests was nearly 22 ppg.
Add the facts that RB Peterson has not reached 100 rush yds in L8 games (averaging just over 3 ypc) and that QB Favre was sacked 10 times in L3 road games (at Chicago, Carolina, and Arizona), and my money says that Minnesota's difficulty on the road will continue today... against an opponent that possesses the NFL's most offensive fire-power... and I'm betting that points will fall just short of the games inflated total.
New Orleans -4
Minn/NO UNDER 54

*** NFC Conference Championship Game ***
Vikings +4 (-115)
Under 53
I looked at this game long and hard. IMO the Vikings either have the
lead or will be trailing by a FG late in the game with a chance to win
outright. I expect both teams to turn the ball over. I
expect the final score to be with-in 3-4 points either way.

I'm going back to the basketball forums, because there is too many immature and incoherent posts here, but I just wanted to throw my two cents in. Saints by a bakers doz. Most people tell you it's homefield advantage that means everything right now. It helps but think about who WANTS this game more. Saints hands down, as a tip of advice. You won't be betting against the Week 14-16 Saints. This is the Saints from the beginning of the season scoring 40+. The Saints offense will be able to keep their defense on the bench and keep them rested (which will lead to better defense).
GL ALL!!!
GL ALL!!!

I "know" this how? 'Cos your multiple-personality, posting disorder-addicted self is in Hawaii, and I wager every day - be it football, basketball or hockey? You go convince yourself, and 4Sure (also YOU) a bit more, and post further ramblings.
You have the Over, I take the Under: Saints 31 Vikings 20
Then, (which most all will doubt) you'll be on your way. Still, something writing claptrap bang-on, slang-for-slang like you will resurface even before the game is over, and your fate subsequently sealed. We'll see your losing self back here, addicted-like, as "4Sure".
You haven't fully evolved, be it capping or walking upright, and holding a spoon, yet I'll still accept your "wager".
Picky takes OVER, at Saints 38 Vikings 27
Taunted UNDER, at Saints 31 Vikings 20
tauntedstreet please keep me out of you and pickys fued. i would like to stay in this comunity but if there is going tobe problems like this allthe time i can find somewhere else to post because you are being rude and you dont even know me. i can see why you think that i am picky but far from the truth sir. he did make me some money and i was showing my gratitude like i would for anyone that did. even you sir.

Going into the Jets/Colts game, I was of the thinking that a running game + great defense wins a Championship game. I took the Jets. That thinking would dictate taking the Vikings. But now -- having watched this Jets/Colts game, I'm thinking these games are won by great QB's picking defense apart + home field. Ergo, I might have to go with the Saints. Darn, this is a very tough decision for me. I am wavering and flip-flopping like never before!

Count me in on the no post bet....If I'm wrong on my pick for this game I promise not to post anything about football starting on February 8th 2010 until Ocotber 2010.
I also wager a billion dollars that this thread will be filled with covers members talking crap about each other.....
Aloha!
