Two integral runners should help the Packers in second meeting with Minnesota

In week two, the Green Bay Packers all but secured a victory over the Minnesota Vikings. A certain roughing the passer penalty went against the Packers as the Vikings drove down the field for a game-tying drive. Had Green Bay’s offense been able to put the game away with a third-and-short opportunity midway through the fourth quarter, it may have won the game without late drama. With a couple more options on the ground this time around, the Packers may be better positioned to pick up critical short-yardage third downs through the running game.
