The Vikings are playing some of the worst football right now that I've seen from them. With division games you can usually throw out all the stats. In this case, I'm not sure. The Vikings have been regressing on offense with each game this season.

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

Applying the Zero algorithm to the last four games played for each team ...

Packers are 1st overall, 1st in offense and 5th in defense.
Vikings are 23rd overall, 11th in offense and 24th in defense.

Vikings will sweep the Packers for the first time since Brett Favre did it with them in 2009.

Vikings 17
Packers 13

Your prediction goes completely against the numbers in the beginning of your post. What do you see in this game that makes you go against it? Just curious.

I think Zero thinks that if he picks against the Packers, it's a guaranteed win for us!😂

These next two games are going to be incredible to watch. AP looked hesitant and rusty last week, and he was really the only hope for a bright spot in the offense after weeks of regressing. So, I have hope that they will be stagnant against us.

Their D is still nothing to scoff at, even with a major injury to Harrison Smith.

And most importantly Rodgers at Lambeau in December is deadly- he has some innate gear he goes to when our clock is ticking. I think we will win Saturday, for all of our sakes I hope it's not as close as the Bears game- my heart can only take so much stress.

Thanks to pack93z for the sig!!!

Forecast is for a Balmy 32 degrees with cloudy skies and a 10% chance of precipitation.

Going to feel like summertime after the last couple of games.

Packers on a mission, Vikings all but out of it.

Will be nice to knock them completely out of the playoff race.

Packers 27 - Vikings 6

This is likely a meaningless game.

If Dallas beats Detroit then our game against the Vikings is meaningless for the division.
The 2nd seed is a very very long shot, too many things to be aligned.
Finally If we win against the Vikes and lose against Det the wildcard is almost impossible.

So I'm just hoping that we stay healthy and fresh for the game that really matters.

What concerns me is the lack of a pass rush against the Bears. At a time where we were up plenty and had them where we wanted them having to throw the ball they couldn't get to the QB. Not that Capers didn't try with umpteen different packages. Nothing worked and the Bears Oline is not that good.

With Clay a non-factor and Perry hurt they need to find some kind of consistency in the pass rush. We will know how big of a problem they have if they can't get to Bradford as many problems they have had protecting him.

Hopefully getting benched is a wake up call for Randall. I doubt we see him playing 10 yards deep and then taking two steps back at the snap this week. I like the kid and hope he bounces back but I can't see MM trusting him on Diggs (see game 1 against the Vikes). I would guess that will be Gunter and that's scary in itself.

Please Santa, give GB a pass rush for Christmas (eve).

QB Aaron Rodgers (calf) and LB Clay Matthews (shoulder) are off the injury report for the Packers. WR Randall Cobb (ankle), LB Nick Perry (hand), CB Damarious Randall (shoulder) and C J.C. Tretter (knee) are listed as questionable while LB Jayrone Elliott (hand) and RB James Starks (concussion) have been ruled out.

I'm seeing a winter weather advisory for Green Bay tonight.
Anybody got the scoop on the weather for game time?

No wake up call needed for Randall, it'll be 30 degrees. He does not play well in cold; his intolerance to cold may be correctable.

Also, last time Dom couldn't really scheme for Bradford, now he's got some tape on him.

Last time they didn't beat us. We shit ourselves epically.

A normal team would step up today and do what needs to be done.

Mike’s team will play down to the level of this opponent, whose players have already given up on the season. The Packers will crap themselves just enough to energize this Vikings team and make them interested in trying.

Pretty sure we’ll still pull it out in the end, about a 60-40 chance.
