Vikings, Green Bay and Packers
Digest more
The Green Bay Packers won on Sunday in very convincing fashion, so no matter what happens the rest of the weekend, they will hold onto a playoff spot. They were in line to take the NFC North lead by the Chicago bears pulled out a close game over the Pittsburgh Steelers to stay in first.
Vikings center Ryan Kelly returned from a six-game absence, but left tackle Christian Darrisaw and left guard Donovan Jackson exited in the second half.
This was another nightmarish day for J.J. McCarthy, who was sacked five total times and threw a pair of interceptions. Next up on the schedule are the Seattle Seahawks, who came into Sunday tied for fifth in the NFL with 32 sacks. If Darrisaw and/or Jackson can't play next week, their respective replacements would be Justin Skule and Blake Brandel.
After a 23-6 loss in Green Bay, the Vikings have lost three games in a row, and just six points against the Packers was the second time this season that Minnesota only scored six points in a loss.
