Packers Wire staff predictions: Week 8 vs. Vikings

The Green Bay Packers (5-1) and Minnesota Vikings (1-5) will face off on Sunday at Lambeau Field.

Here’s how the staff at Packers Wire believes the Week 8 matchup with the Vikings will go down:

Zach Kruse (4-2): Packers 30, Vikings 20

The wind factor could slow the Packers some on Sunday, but unless the offense makes a bunch of mistakes and the Vikings control the ball, it’s difficult seeing how Mike Zimmer’s bunch can escape Lambeau Field with a win. The Vikings defense is devastated, both at cornerback and pass-rusher, and Kirk Cousins has been a turnover machine behind a shaky offensive line.
