The Green Bay Packers enter week 13 off a traumatizing loss in the Bay Area, falling 37-8 to the San Francisco 49ers last Sunday night. But this week provides some opportunity for a rebound and for the Packers to extend out the lead in the NFC North division with a month to play.
The Packers face the 2-9 New York Giants on Sunday afternoon in a very winnable game that should give the team a chance to get back on track. However, the Minnesota Vikings — tied with the Packers on record at 8-3 — have a very difficult task ahead of them on Monday Night Football.
