If the Vikings lose and go 8-8 do they take over the 7 seed from us?

If I understand correctly, we need the Vikings and Packers to go 1-1 in their final two games. And (obviously) we need to beat the Cardinals.

Yes. If the Vikings or the Packers win this week, we're the 8th seed.
They were ahead of us when tied before so I assume they would be again.

Wouldn’t it be ironic (and fitting) if this game ended in a tie?
