Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers: First Quarter Recap and Second Quarter Discussion

The first quarter of action from Lambeau Field is in the books, and your Minnesota Vikings are leading the Green Bay Packers by a score of 14-0.

For the first time this year, the Vikings lost a coin toss, and that meant the Packers got to defer to the second half and give the Vikings the ball first. Aaron Jones got the first two touches of the game against his former team and picked up 18 yards to get the Vikings near midfield. After a big play on a third down from Sam Darnold to Jalen Nailor for 32 yards, Darnold found the returning Jordan Addison for a 29-yard touchdown pass, Addison’s first reception since the season opener, and the Vikings had a 7-0 lead just over three minutes into the game.
