Vikings 20, Packers 13

The Vikings knocked off the Packers 20-13 tonight in Green Bay.  The Vikings finish their 2015-16 season with an 11-5 record.  The Vikings also clinched the NFC North title and a home playoff game with this victory.  This wasn't an easy one, the Vikings somehow managed to throw away a 20-3 fourth quarter lead and only clinched it on the last play of the game.  No easy task ahead for the Vikings though as they will match up with the Seahawks in the first round of the playoffs and the Seahawks are playing as well as anybody.  NFC North Champs!!!

Observation:

• This was the Vikings first NFL North title since 2009.  
• The Vikings executed that early fake punt to perfection. 
• Adrian Peterson wrapped up his 3rd rushing title before the game even started. 
• 2 sacks for Everson Griffen tonight, that gave him 10.5 on the season. 
• Aaron Rodgers got way too much time to pass late in this game.  
• Xavier Rhodes picked a clutch time for his first interception of the season. 
• Eric Kendricks had himself a very nice game.  
• Just a horrible decision by Teddy Bridgewater on that Micah Hyde interception. 
• Adam Thielen made a nice contribution tonight. 
• Time of Possession:  Packers 35:42, Vikings 24:18
• Heads up play by Captain Munnerlyn to return that fumble for a touchdown. 
• Adrian Peterson is relentless near the end zone. 
• Tom Johnson has filled in nicely for the injured Linval Joseph.  
• Clay Matthews has become quite the punk.  
• One play that epitomizes Cordarrelle Patterson's season?  
• Perhaps Sharrif Floyd should be given some time at tight end. 
• The Packers may want to consider Eddie Lacey at nose guard next season. 
• Early Vikings draft needs:  OL, DB, LB, WR
• Ragnar is just embarrassing himself at this point. 
• Up next?  Seattle @ Minnespolis next Sunday in the 1st round of the NFC playoffs.
