Summary:
Minnesota managed to squeeze by Tennessee last week despite a slow day from Adrian Peterson. The Vikings started backup quarterback Shaun Hill in lieu of recently trading a first-round pick for Sam Bradford. The Vikings defense is loaded but they will have the tall task of slowing down Aaron Rodgers and the explosive Packers offense. The Packers won a close one against Jacksonville last week. In their last seven head to head match-ups the Vikings have just one win. I like the Packers to win this one with the question marks Minnesota has a quarterback.
