The Vikings beat the Saints in New Orleans 26-20. They currently have 14-1 odds of winning Super Bowl LIV.
Minnesota's defense forced Brees into two turnovers -- one game after the Saints had finished the regular season with an NFL record-low eight. Brees also was sacked three times and finished 26 of 33 for 208 yards, one TD and an interception.
Brees' first turnover came on a deep throw downfield for Ted Ginn Jr. late in the first half. Safety Anthony Harris corralled the ball as he fell to the turf and then returned it 30 yards across midfield. That led to Cook's first touchdown on a 5-yard run that gave the Vikings a 13-10 lead.
The Saints were threatening with less than five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter when Danielle Hunter sacked Brees, who lost the ball. It was recovered by defensive tackle Jalyn Holmes on the Minnesota 36.
The 49ers rested during the Wildcard Weekend games. They now have the second shortest odds of winning the Super Bowl at 13/4.
