Pre-Game:
In my opinion, this is the game most people have been waiting for! I believe it will be the most televised Monday Night Football game in history. Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings against his former team, the Green Bay Packers. Currently, the Vikings are a 3 ½ point spread favorite at most betting sites.
The Packers are coming off a pretty good showing last week, beating the horribly St. Louis Rams 36-17 at St. Louis. Green Bay is 2-1 going into this in-division rival match-up. The Vikings beat the 49ers in the most exciting finishing game of last week, 27-24 in Minnesota. Brett Favre through a 30+ yard touchdown with 2 seconds left in the game to take the lead. The Vikings are undefeated at 3-0.
Packers:
Green Bay is coming off a confidence win last week against the Rams after losing to the Bengals the following week. Aaron Rodgers had the 2nd highest QB Rating at 126.9. He was 13-23 with 269 yards, 2 TDs and 0 INTs. Roger has looked pretty solid this year for the most part and has handled all the pressure well, but we will see how he deals with the pressure this Monday Night.
Vikings:
I believe this is the game Brett Favre has been waiting for to prove to Ted Thompson, Packers GM, he made a huge mistake in not keeping him with Green Bay. As I predicted last week, Brett Favre threw for over 300 yards against the 49ers. Favre always steps up his play in high pressure games, so look for him to have an unforgettable game. I foresee him throwing for another 300+ yards and a couple TDs. The difference in this game is going to be Adrian Peterson. Big surprise, I know. If he has a big game, which I strongly feel he will, the Vikings won’t be stopped.
Packers vs Vikings Prediction:
This is the game we all have been waiting for! I feel this game could go two different ways. One, the Vikings blow out the Packers with Brett Favre and Adrian Peterson having spectacular games. Two, Aaron Rogers fails to come through when it counts for Green Bay towards the end of the game and Minnesota wins by a touchdown. Either way, I predict the Vikings winning this game and beating the point spread.
