That’s something the Packers (10-5) are used to doing.

Curry-less Warriors blown out by Barea, Mavs 114-91
But this injury may end up having significant historical implications if Curry does end up missing a game or two. That meant Wesley Matthews was the lucky person who drew the defensive assignment to slow down Thompson.
Green Bay is 10-5 going into a Week 17 showdown with the Minnesota Vikings for the NFC North title and the right to host a wild-card playoff game.
Russian Federation blames Saudis for low oil prices
At 1550 GMT, Brent traded $US1.10 lower at $US36.69 per barrel, less than $US1 away from 11-year lows reached last week. USA crude stockpiles probably fell a second week, according to a Bloomberg survey before government data Wednesday.
NBC-TV announced it’s moving the game at Lambeau Field from a noon start to the 7:30 p.m. time slot. There will be a pair of good ones playing Sunday night in Minnesota’s Blair Walsh and Green Bay’s Mason Crosby.
Trump Filter: Google Chrome extension lets users block all Trump-related stories
Spectre, of Brooklyn, said the reaction he’s getting to the filter reflects the reaction many have to the Trump’s campaign antics. Developed by Fusion news site, one Chrome extension adds actual Donald Trump quotes to any mention of the billionaire’s name.
“We haven’t had the same type of stats that we’ve had in years past, but we’ve rattled off 10 wins, another playoff berth”, Rodgers said. This would be great for Minnesota.
The Cowboys beat the shit out of the Packers in the 90s, with eight straight wins, including three in the playoffs. Could the Vikings sneak into Lambeau and take the division?
They now have that opportunity.
Whether they beat the Vikings and continue the trend or finally fall from the prized position to younger, hungrier team with designs on taking them out for the first of multiple times and flipping the script will play out Sunday night. We need to bounce back, but you know we’ve had a good home-field advantage here for years, especially last couple years, and we’ve got to kind of tap into that.
I certainly wouldn’t want to turn around and go right back to Green Bay. That’s it. The outcome of Seattle’s game at Arizona would have no bearing on the Seahawks’ seeding. In this scenario, the Seahawks would travel to face the No. 4 seed Washington Redskins.
Minnesota won two straight and the Packers lost one.
This game closes the National Football League regular season, and all the others that take place earlier don’t really mean much to the Packers or Vikings.
That was November 22, and the Packers came into TCF Bank Stadium and beat Minnesota 30-13.
“Whenever you look at Harrison Smith and Sendejo, they’re both hard hitters”, Cobb said.
“I just happened to be watching that game upstairs earlier today and the guy still looks like a surgeon to me when he throws the ball”, said Zimmer, referencing the Packers’ 38-8 loss last week to Arizona. Sometimes, I’m really amazed at a guy that’s a second-year linebacker that didn’t play behind the line in college, that played two years at defensive end, is basically what he was.
How many carries will Peterson get Sunday?
Before they get there, of course, the Vikings have this rivalry rematch to focus on.
I also think we have the brighter future. And each opposing quarterback – Rodgers, Wilson and Teddy Bridgewater – present challenges most quarterbacks can’t rival, so it will be tough going no matter which team ends up making the trip.
Texans could stumble here and blow division, but we see them squeezing in. If you wanted the Green Bay Packers to go into Arizona and make a statement, you got what you wanted … sort of. He isn’t planning on rolling out any new garments this week, figuring playing for the division crown is motivation enough.
“By us coming in here tonight and getting a win, we do not have to rely on other people to get into the playoffs”, Robison also said. “And I’m OK with that”, Rodgers said when asked about bigger expectations for him.
Green Bay’s defense hasn’t been, allowing more than 370 total yards to both Oakland and Arizona.

The Vikings could get one of three playoff spots and thus could play one of three opponents. I’m going to definitely have it on this week.
