Coming off a big road win against the up-and-coming Oakland Raiders, the Minnesota Vikings now turn their sights to their opponents next week: the Green Bay Packers. As fans of the Vikings know, games against the Packers aren’t just any game. They’re a division team, but there’s also a history and a rivalry between the two teams that puts even more on the line in the contest.
When the Vikings arrived for Monday practice, the team found gifts hanging in their lockers: tee shirts with the word “North” on the front and “Beat Green Bay” on them.
The shirts were a gift from head coach Mike Zimmer according to an article on the Star Tribune website.
