Why are Vikings fans excited about the pending Saints versus Vikings game?

It's as if they think that a win here is going to be repayment for their loss to the Saints last year in a key game. I don't get it. I'm looking forward to the match up because the game last year was a great game. However, a win for MN here is not going to make up for the blowing a key game last year that got the Saints to the Superbowl.
