Pro Football Network: Vikings 30, Packers 27

Ben Rolfe writes: "The Vikings have had the Packers’ number in their last two matchups. This game means everything for the Vikings when it comes to the playoffs. A big key will be how their roster looks after some COVID and injury losses. The Packers were sloppy against the Browns, perhaps symptomatic of bigger issues. The Vikings need a complete performance, but they really could spring an upset here against a Packers defense that can be beaten."

David Fucillo writes: "Divisional matchups can be tough to figure out, but I think we see the Packers get on track after a tough one against Cleveland. The Vikings stand a good chance of once again being without Dalvin Cook and while Alexander Mattison is a solid replacement, he’s no Cook. The Packers can come close to locking down the No. 1 seed, so I imagine they will want to end this one early."

Matthew Freedman writes: "With a win in Week 17 and a Cowboys loss to the Cardinals, the Packers can clinch the No. 1 seed in the NFC — and they can all but eliminate their division rival Vikings from the playoffs. Rodgers is playing as well as any quarterback in the league right now, and the Packers should be motivated. Betting on Rodgers at home might be so obvious it’s square, but I can’t imagine not betting on Rodgers and the Packers in this spot."
