Past the midway point in their season, the Vikings finally play the Packers for the first time. Green Bay (8-2) is running away with the NFC North, even with uneven performances the past two weeks amid Aaron Rodgers' COVID drama.

WEEK 10 RESULT
Packers 17, Seahawks 0: Rodgers and Russell Wilson returned to their respective lineups and no one scored a touchdown until the fourth quarter. The Packers got two touchdowns from A.J. Dillon after losing Aaron Jones to a knee injury.

PLAYER TO WATCH
QB Aaron Rodgers: Of course. This will be Rodgers' 26th game against the Vikings and he has won his past two trips at U.S. Bank Stadium. He was rusty against Seattle after missing a game and a week of practice. Rust is unlikely to be a problem next Sunday.

OUTLOOK
With Rodgers back, the Packers are arguably the best team in the NFC. The Vikings have put together — checks notes — one complete game this season. But strange things happen when division rivals know each other this well.
