GREEN BAY, Wis. (WFRV) – On Sunday, it will have been more than a month since the Packers played a game at Lambeau Field, and both the team and Jordan Love hope that the Tundra can help bring a resurgence against divisional rival Minnesota Vikings.
The Vikings and Packers have been heading in opposite directions in recent weeks with the Vikings winning three of their last four games and the Packers losing three games in a row but a welcoming sight in Lambeau Field might be just what the Packers need.
Sunday will mark Jordan Love’s first career start against the Vikings, although Love has appeared in the last three matchups with Minnesota, completing 8 of 12 passes with 93 yards combined.
Before we get to Sunday’s 12:00 p.m. kickoff at Lambeau Field, let’s focus on this week’s Prior to the Snap!
