NFC North Recap: Storylines, highlights, standings from Week 2

The big story surrounding this divisional matchup was the status of Aaron Rodgers, who suffered a knee injury in Week 1, but was still able to return from the locker room and pull off yet another miracle in Rodgers-like fashion.

Despite Rodgers missing every practice and being listed as “Questionable” for Sunday’s game, you knew damn well that there was no way he would miss this game. Let’s not kid ourselves.

Rodgers had a noticeable limp against the Vikings, but he didn’t let that stop him from a very respectable performance, completing 30 of his 42 attempts for 282 yards, a touchdown and zero interceptions.
