Week 8 Q&A: What’s changed on the Vikings offense since Week 1?
Photo by Stephen Maturen/Getty ImagesBy the time the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings get together on Sunday, exactly 50 days will have passed since their Week 1 matchup. In those 50 days, the two teams, once thought to be the top contenders for the NFC North crown, will have gone in remarkably different directions.
The Packers, of course, are 5-1 and have played long stretches of fairly dominant football, outside of a significant misstep against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Vikings, meanwhile, have been, uh, considerably less dominant. They’ve stumbled to a 1-5 start, bookended by a Week 1 thrashing by the Packers and a Week 6 faceplant against the lowly Atlanta Falcons.
