Green Bay seeks revenge and a seed-order leap as Minnesota brings a two-game losing streak into Sunday’s rematch.
Sunday’s Lambeau rematch carries NFC positioning stakes: Minnesota is 6-2 and sixth in the seed order, while Green Bay is 6-3 and seventh, after the Vikings took the first meeting 39-22. The Packers have won four of their last five and enter on a two-game streak; Minnesota has lost two straight after winning three in a row. Jordan Love has thrown for 2,618 yards with 19 touchdowns and six interceptions, and Green Bay’s offense has added six rushing touchdowns and 14 field goals; Kirk Cousins has 20 passing touchdowns and eight interceptions, while Minnesota has 11 total touchdowns and 20 made field goals. Green Bay averages 290.9 passing yards per game, but Minnesota’s defense has recorded 29 sacks, making its pressure on Love the key matchup—and whether the Packers can turn drives into touchdowns rather than field goals may decide the rematch.
