The Green Bay Packers’ season hit rock bottom and the Minnesota Vikings’ season was forever changed when the two NFC North rivals met at Lambeau Field on Oct. 29. The Packers lost by 14 points at home and dropped to 2-5, while the Vikings got a big win but lost starting quarterback Kirk Cousins to a season-ending injury.

Roughly two months later, the two teams will meet again — this time at U.S. Bank Stadium — in what must be considered a primetime elimination game on “Sunday Night Football” in Week 17.
