Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers: Predictions, picks and odds for NFL Week 8 game
The Green Bay Packers (2-4) and Minnesota Vikings (3-4) have battled for the NFC North title for years, but they’ll be playing to turn their season around Sunday.
Minnesota got its biggest win of the season after an impressive performance against the mighty San Francisco 49ers on “Monday Night Football.” Rookie receiver Jordan Addison showed why he was a first-round draft pick and the defense was able to thwart the 49ers attack in a win that could move the Vikings in the right direction.
The Jordan Love experience hasn’t been off to the start Green Bay was hoping for, as the team is on a three-game losing streak after a loss to the lowly Denver Broncos. The offense hasn’t been able to generate any momentum and the defense is banged up, leaving few ways for the Packers to get back on the winning side.

The Packers, with Jordan Love unable to play efficiently cannot be trusted. They faced a historically inept Broncos squad and were shut out in the first half. The Vikings have the better roster.
