Open Thread: Green Bay Packers at Vikings

GREEN BAY PACKERS (6-3) GAME #10 MINNESOTA VIKINGS (3-6)
VS.
Date: November 21, 2010 Location: Minneapolis, MN
Time: Noon CST
Stadium: Metrodome
TV: Fox Favorite: Vikings by 2.5
Weather: Dome Injury Report: Injury Report
SBN Coverage: Daily Norseman My Prediction:

Between writing a fantasy preview, and two mid-season reports on the Packers and Vikings, I realize I didn't predict the game. I'm nervous and the line favoring the Vikings confirms it. The Vikings have played better at home, but the results have been two close wins against weak teams (Cowboys and Cardinals). I don't know if that will be the case against a much better team. And that game at Lambeau was very close.

According to the Packers twitter account, WR Donald Driver and DE Ryan Pickett are both active and expected to start. Neither move surprises me, but both players have started recent games only to aggravate their injuries in the first half. Otherwise the Packers inactive list are players who are healthy (except FB Korey Hall) but I didn't expect to play.

No surprises on the Vikings inactive list, except for Brad Childress's favorite WR Hank Baskett.
