The New Orleans Saints were eliminated from the playoffs Sunday night when quarterback Case Keenam hit wide receiver Stefon Diggs for a 61-yard touchdown pass as time expired.

The score and following extra-point gave the Vikings a 29-24 win and a spot in the NFC Championship next Sunday.

Diggs finished Sunday’s win with 137 yards and one touchdown on six receptions.

The Vikings and Eagles kick off at 6:40 p.m. ET on Sunday from Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field.
