This week, our Green Bay Packers travel west to play one of their NFC North rivals, the Minnesota Vikings. It probably will not surprise you to see how we end up picking the game between the 7-3 Packers and the 4-6 Vikings, but it's worth looking through the rest of the NFL's games this week as well.

Therefore, as we do each week, we give our picks for this Week 12 in the NFL on this Thursday afternoon. There are a lot of unanimous picks this week, as many of the games feature teams with winning records against struggling squads; this comes in stark contrast to last week, which featured several games between top playoff contenders.

On to the picks!
