The Green Bay Packers are set for a rematch with the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, Nov. 15, at noon at Lambeau Field.
The last time these teams met was in Week 1 of the NFL season, when the Vikings pulled off a surprising 39-22 comeback victory. Despite the loss, Packers quarterback Jordan Love threw for 387 yards. Green Bay hopes to find similar success through the air against one of the league's top defenses.
The Packers have won four of their last five games and are coming off a dominant 45-27 victory over the New England Patriots. Green Bay's offense was electric in that matchup, with Love completing 23 of 29 passes for 372 yards and three touchdowns. He also rushed for a touchdown, earning NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors.
Green Bay's wide receiver duo continued to shine, with Matthew Golden recording 10 receptions for 164 yards and a touchdown, while Christian Watson added seven catches for 171 yards and a score. The Packers also showed improvement in their running game, finishing with 129 rushing yards. Running back Kaleb Johnson led the way with 68 yards and a touchdown on 14 carries.
The Packers' defense has also been among the league's best recently, allowing no more than three touchdowns in any of its last five games. Against New England, Green Bay recorded three interceptions and four sacks. Xavier McKinney led the secondary with two interceptions, while Evan Williams added another.
The victory improved Green Bay's record to 6-3.
The Packers now turn their attention to a 6-2 Vikings team that has lost two consecutive games. Minnesota has struggled offensively, particularly at quarterback. In an effort to address those concerns, the Vikings acquired Kirk Cousins from the Las Vegas Raiders. Cousins, who previously played for Minnesota from 2018 to 2024, has put together a strong season and will look to provide a spark for the Vikings' offense while their defense continues to perform at a high level.
The Packers and Vikings will kick off at noon Sunday at Lambeau Field in Green Bay.
