Minnesota hosts the Seahawks at noon today in the first round of the N-F-L playoffs, the first time the Vikings have hosted a playoff game in six years.  Both teams like to run the ball and both feature strong defenses.  

Seattle comes in as the hottest team in the league, going 8-2 after a 2-4 start.  A Viking defense which has rung up 14 sacks and seven takeaways in the last three games of the season will be counted on by coach Mike Zimmer once more.
