    Official Packers at Vikings Discussion Thread

    Packers lead all-time series 67-60-3. 66-59-3 in regular season, 1-1 in postseason.

    Last meeting: November 23, 2025. Packers defeated the Vikings 23-6 at Lambeau. Emanuel Wilson rushed for 107 yards and 2 TD's. For the Vikings, JJ McCarthy threw for just 87 yards and 2 INT's. The Packers led by just 10-6 at halftime, but dominated the 2nd half. They were aided by a muffed punt by the Vikings that gave the Packers the ball at the Vikings 5 yards line. Emanuel Wilson scored 2 plays later.

    The Vikings come into the game 8-8, winners of 4 in a row, including a win over The Lions on Christmas Day which eliminated the Lions from the playoffs. Offensively, the Vikings come into the game ranked 25th in points scored, 29th in yards gained. JJ McCarthy in 9 games has completed 57.3% of his passes for 1450 yards with 11 TD's and 12 INT's. He did not play last week and his status for this week is uncertain. If he can't play, Max Brosner will play. Last week Brosner threw for just 51 yards and was sacked 7 times. Justin Jefferson leads the Vikings with 947 receiving yards and 2 TD's. Jordan Mason leads the Vikings with 664 rushing yards and 6 TD's, averaging 4.6 YPC. Aaron Jones has 548 rushing yards and 2 TD's, averaging 4.2 YPC.

    Defensively, the Vikings rank 10th in points allowed, 5th in yards allowed. Opponents have completed 63% of passes for just 2701 yards with 15 TD's and 8 INT's. Opponents have rushed for 1982 yards and 13 TD's, averaging 4.0 YPC. Vikings have sacked opponents 45 times, led by Andrew Van Ginkel with 7.

    Vikings favored by 6.5

    Moneyline: Packers +240, Vikings -300

    Over/under: 37.5

    This could’ve been the chance for 2 or 3 seed. Instead it should be battle of unknown QBs and vanilla game plans with backups.

      I’ll probably sit this one out.

        So who is even playing QB for the Vikes? Is McCarthy playing? I don't even know.

        If I were the Vikes I'd be evaluating the hell out of Malik Willis. He could be their QB next year.

          Will Willis even play? I wonder if we're going to see a QB matchup of Tune vs. Brosner. This could be like the 2nd half of a preseason game. Except Vikings will have defensive starters in.

            We could elevate the practice squad for a game and field a true JV team

              That was my thought also. Then it would be a “historic” first time ever game.

                The NFL would figure out a way to market the shit out of it.

                  You can bet your pale ass they would!!

                  NFL is so dirty they probably try to turn it into minor league or some shit. Make teams play their practic squad on Saturday so they could fuck over college football.

                      Cowboys released Diggs today. Could we see Gute upgrading CB position?

                        It seems sad that somebody another team cut would be an upgrade for you, but then again Guter plucked a very good starting corner from Arizona’s practice squad a few years ago.

                          Trevon Diggs wasn't just good, he was great until he got hurt. Whether there's any chance he can return to that is the question - probably doubtful, especially in the short term. It wouldn't take much to be an upgrade over what the Packers have at Corner, though.
                          What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

                            The German Shepherd would be incompetent if he doesn’t try to claim Diggs. Maybe losing 3 games in a row is a blessing in disguise - Packers have priority on the waiver wire over the other playoffs contenders.

                            Getting Diggs would indeed be an upgrade. I coulda balled better than Nixon and Valentine balled in the last two games, and I am, alas, 43 and experiencing hip, back and now knee pains.

                            Gotta quit burger flipping, I reckon.

                              I think it is important for the Packers to come out with some fire. Whomever they play or don’t play, whoever wins, I’d like this team to play hard and physical. Another sleepwalk like last week would be a horrible way to go into the playoffs.
