Keep the Egg Nog close for Saturday night’s home finale against the hated Minnesota Vikings. But be reasonable: Do not turn the contest into a drinking game—unless you plan to be not long for this world. Against the highly-motivated Vikings—who are surely eyeing the top seed in the NFC—the playoff-eliminated Packers have only pride to play for.
The Packers couldn’t muster a win against the Panthers, and that was with Aaron Rodgers back and playoff hopes still alive. Minnesota could have its way with the Packers, who shelved Rodgers for the final two games and are also missing standout receiver Davante Adams.
