Don't they play in a dome?

I was going to make a quip about the Vikings being a “cold weather” team even though they play in a dome. Then I looked up the Packer’s record when playing the Vikings in Green Bay in November or later since Aaron Rodgers has been a starter:

5-4-1

It’s not exactly a massacre. To be fair, one of these games (a loss) was started by Brent Huntley. That said, they're 1-3-1 in the last 5, with the lone win coming in the playoffs (`12-13).

Given that the Vikings have everything to play for and that the Packers have the division and a playoff spot locked up, I’m not sure what to expect. I would say it’s a coin toss on who is going to win this one.

Green Bay practices inside. They open the doors for one or two practices and/or put the balls into a freezer. I can't see where it has helped them adapt to the cold weather. It's not like the old days where they were outside for every single practice and had truly acclimated to the weather. Add to it temp is going to drop on Saturday. It's not as if they will have been dealing with it for 2 or 3 weeks and are truly use to it.
