This Sunday, the Minnesota Vikings will battle the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. The Week 12 matchup holds the fate of the 2025 Minnesota Vikings season. At 4-6, there is little room for error if the Vikings want to have a chance of vying for a playoff spot. A win against the Green Bay Packers would go a long way, and improve the Vikings’ division record to 3-1.
The only thing that is keeping Minnesota afloat in the playoff rankings is that divisional record, which could have a tremendous impact in determining tie breakers at the end of the season. Minnesota is currently in last place in the NFC North Division standings and 11th overall in the NFC behind the 4-5-1 Dallas Cowboys. If the season ended today, the Vikings would hold the 12th pick in the 2026 NFL draft.
