Apparently you are missing alot as its not more realistic at all..in fact its less realistic as it not only takes us winning out our final games but we must have help in the form of losses from other teams. Its additional factors that make it less realistic.
As far as the schedule goes it isnt even close. The Vikings play us (2 pretty evenly matched teams) at HOME. Theres the difference that sways that game in favor of the Vikings and then in week 17 we play the Cowboys at home, which is gonna be a tough as hell game by any stretch as the Cowboys DONT want to lose home field advantage throughout the playoffs. The Vikings play their last game AT Denver which could easily be a meaningless game for the Broncos as they are on the verge of being eliminated from the playoffs.
Anything can happen but when you consider the evidence right now, the Vikings have the easier path by far.
