Packers continue to roll into rematch versus Minnesota

A rematch of Week One and a division rivalry is restored when the Green Bay Packers play host to the division winning Minnesota Vikings Sunday afternoon. 

 

Green Bay still has hope and a shot at grabbing that 7 seed in the NFC playoff picture, but will need some help even with the potential of winning out. The Packers will need to of course win out against the Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions, but also need the Washington Commanders to lose one of their last two against either the Cleveland Browns or the Dallas Cowboys. 

 

Green Bay may have a few key contributors questionable going into the game against the Vikings, as Keisean Nixon and Christian Watson were limited throughout the week at practice. David Bahktiari has been rumored to return from his appendectomy which has held him out since before the Chicago Bears game back in Week 13. 

 

For Minnesota, they have been narrowly winning games all season, including a last second 61 yard field goal to win last week over the New York Giants, and a 33-0 comeback the week before that against the Indianapolis Colts. Justin Jefferson will be a player to watch all game this week, as he toasted the Packers secondary Week One with 9 receptions for 184 yards and 2 touchdowns. Green Bay had problems with the Miami receivers last week, allowing over 100 yards to both Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill. 

 

Kickoff from Lambeau is set for 3:25 P.M.
