Packers vs Vikings Odds, Preview, Stream, Picks & Predictions

To say that Aaron Rodgers owns the NFC North division is not in any way, form or shape intended to be an insult against all of the other teams in the division. It just is what it is, the truth, a truth everyone around the league is well aware of. Ever since Aaron Rodgers has played for the Green Bay Packers, all other teams in the division, including their week 1 opponents, the Minnesota Vikings, haven’t been able to catch a breath or a break whatsoever.

Let’s check the latest NFL picks, news, stats, injury reports, and NFL expert picks for Packers vs Vikings. We’ve plenty of NFL predictions for you to consider.

Now that Rodgers is fully back with the Packers, in what looks to be a definite deal that will see the QB play out his final years in Wisconsin, Green Bay will start off the season by visiting Minnesota to play their hated divisional rivals in the first of two games of the season.

But for now, let’s look back at what the last time these two teams played each other was like, just last season.

In the last home game for the Green Bay Packers last season, Aaron Rodgers and his team made sure to send the Vikings packing back to Minnesota after routing them with a strong 37-10 win that included yet another stellar performance from Rodgers with 288 passing yards, 2 touchdowns and 29 completed passes out of 38 attempts. The Packers showed once again why they were one of the absolute best units in all of football, securing home-field advantage through last year’s playoffs where they ended up with the number one seed above teams like the Rams and 49ers.

Even when playing against a team that knows a thing or two about what its like to play in harsh, close to freezing conditions, the Vikings were no match for a Packers team that thrives when playing at home and especially when the weather seems like it will be impossible to actually practice normal football. Something that all teams playing the Packers should always definitely consider.

Having Aaron Rodgers back for the 2022 season will definitely work as a plus for Green Bay, who will be playing their first season without Davante Adams as Rodgers main weapon on offense, but still with Aaron Jones as the main option at RB. Beating the Minnesota Vikings is something that comes as natural to Rodgers and the Packers as beating the Bears and Lions, the other teams in the NFC north division, which is why, even with Justin Jefferson and Dalvin Cook firing on all cylinders for the Vikings on offense, expect a win for Green Bay here.
