Coming off a much-needed 27-20 victory over the New York Giants, the Green Bay Packers now face the most critical stretch of the season, as four of their next five games will be contested against their fellow franchises from the NFC North. And that fifth matchup is no picnic either, as they'll head to the Mile High City in Week 15 for a date with the Denver Broncos. But Matt LaFleur & Co. can't even begin to start thinking about that one just yet.
Up first for the Packers on this five-game slate is their first matchup of the season with the rival Minnesota Vikings, who have lost four of their last five and are hanging on by a thread in the NFC playoff picture after dropping to 4-6 last Sunday with a heartbreaking last-second loss to the Chicago Bears.
