Wowzers, I am shocked, this is going to move and then it gives me a big red flag as me missing something cause the bookie boys are better cappers than me but the Vikings have the edge at almost every position except QB. Sticking with it the Vikings are the better team and both heading in opposite direction.
I know last year doesn't mean anything but, the Packers won by 3 last year in Minny.. They won cause Lacy and Rodgers ran right over them. Rodgers had a lot of 3rd down conversions with his feet. Jordy no longer there and Lacy is not "Beast Mode", he is "FEAST MODE!" Last season Peterson was not there and neither were LB Barr and LB Kendricks, Kendricks has been out past 2 weeks but I expect him this week, these guys will not allow Rodgers to run all over the field and the Vikings run defense is much better than last season. The Vikings have a good pass defense too and the Packers have nobody who scares the secondary, the Vikings secondary vs. Packers receivers is a mismatch. This Vikings team has a lot of depth, the Packers do not, The Vikings have a top 5 special teams unit, the Packers are OK, and the Vikings are better coached. I know I talked a lot about the defense is a mismatch on that side of the ball but the Vikings strength of rushing the football is great news playing against the Packer's defensive front. The Vikings offensive line had to overcome losing two starters in the preseason in Loadholt and Sullivan, they have improved every week and starting to get a push. Green Bay runs a 3-4 to disguise weakness and will be blitzing. This is the time of game the Vikings receivers should get open... Vikings are a Fast fast football team at home playing a team who they match up very well against. Don't forget the Packer's road record against winning teams either. Vikes should take it and pretty much take control of division cause Detroit loss was huge for tie breakers
