GREEN BAY, Wis. —The road to the NFC North will go through Minnesota in 2016.
So will a Wild Card game next weekend.
Xavier Rhodes picked off Aaron Rodgers in the end zone on fourth-and-13 with 2:09 remaining to help the Vikings reclaim their grip on a 20-13 victory that was slipping because of a furious rally by the Packers.
Minnesota (11-5) will host Seattle (10-6) at the University of Minnesota.
Rhodes’ first interception of the season still wasn’t quite enough. The Vikings withstood one final drive by the Packers, who forced a punt with 58 seconds remaining.
