Before the Green Bay Packers take on the Minnesota Vikings, here are three bold predictions for the upcoming matchup.

I went digging in the closet and dusted off the old crystal ball for some Green Bay Packers’ football. One of the more fun articles that I did every week last season was making my bold predictions for the upcoming game. As you’d expect, there were some cold streaks, but I got hot during the middle of the season as well.

This week’s opponent is the Minnesota Vikings, who have undergone a fair amount of roster turnover this offseason. Stefon Diggs, Linval Joseph, Trae Waynes, Xavier Rhodes, and Mackensie Alexander are all on new teams, and as a result, the Vikings will be relying on several younger players to step in and fill those roles.

Meanwhile, the Green Bay Packers bring back largely the same team that they had in 2019. However, while oftentimes that would create a lot of buzz around the league, especially for a team that went 13-3, most are down on Green Bay and expect them to regress.

Both teams are expecting to compete for the NFC North title, and a win on Sunday will give someone an early advantage. So without further ado, let’s dive into this week’s bold predictions!
