Packers: Three takeaways from Week 2 tie with Vikings

For the second time in the past six meetings between the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings at Lambeau Field, the game has finished in a tie.

And an Aaron Rodgers‘ injury was a key storyline in both.

Five years ago, the Packers fought back from 23-7 to send the game to overtime. Both teams scored field goals with the game finishing 26-26. It was only a tie, but it kept the Packers’ season alive. They would win the NFC North with an 8-7-1 record over the 8-8 Chicago Bears.

Matt Flynn threw for 218 yards and a touchdown that afternoon to help the Packers tie the game.
