Packers look to keep playoff dream alive vs. rival Vikings

Field Level Media

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook appreciates a good rivalry.

"It's fun being a part of Vikings-Packers. ... I was a part of Miami-Florida State, and Florida," the former Florida State star said. "Now, I'm a part of Vikings-Packers. ... You only get it once, twice a year. Maybe three. You never know."

With Green Bay surging back to the NFC playoff race and NFC North champion Minnesota currently holding the conference's No. 2 seed, Cook may yet prove prophetic.

Of course, Minnesota (12-3) could take a major step toward thwarting the Packers (7-8) and their postseason hopes when the teams meet in Green Bay on Sunday.
