From a key battle in the NFC North to a key Week 17 rematch from last December, here are the best games to watch on Sunday in Week 2 of the 2018 NFL season.
If the first weekend of action is any indication of what to expect in Week 2 of the NFL 2018 season, football fans are going to be excited over what’s in store, especially when it comes to the top games scheduled for Sunday.
While there are plenty of great contests to choose from this weekend, the argument can be made that nothing will top a familiar rivalry between the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings, with Aaron Rodgers most likely having revenge on his mind from what took place last year.
As Packers fans remember well, it was that first meeting with Minnesota in which Rodgers suffered that broken collarbone on a questionable hit, forcing him to miss a good amount of the 2017 season. And if watching Brett Hundley trying to fill in for the future Hall of Famer wasn’t already frustrating enough, the absence of Rodgers also played a big part in Green Bay falling short of making the playoffs.
Year after year, the Packers are always viewed as one of the early favorites in the NFC to make a run at the Super Bowl, and while early signs point to that being the case once again for 2018, the Vikings will give them a run for their money after last season’s success. Along with this key NFC North battle to look forward, here are some of the other top games on Sunday for football fans to look forward to in Week 2, starting off with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers hosting the Philadelphia Eagles.
