Vikings prep for divisional battle against Packers
MINNEAPOLIS, MN (KELO) — The Minnesota Vikings gear up to host the Green Bay Packers in week 17.The two teams will meet for the second time this season, they last met in week four after Minnesota claimed the 31-29 win. With the playoffs around the corner and the fight for the number one spot in the NFC is up for grabs, the Vikings are looking to evade the pressures of the divisional battle.
“It’s fun to be able to play big time football, to be able to play meaningful games towards the end of the season,” Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold. “But we’re looking at just going 1-0, that’s our whole mindset.”
The two teams will meet Sunday, kick-off is set for 3:25 p.m.
