Minnesota Vikings: 3 Bold predictions for Week 8 vs. Packers

1. Vikings drop second game against Packers in 2020

The final prediction that will occur for Minnesota in Week 8 against an NFC North rival in Green Bay is that the Vikings will fall yet again on the road and will see their losing streak extended to three straight.

Coming out of the bye week, Minnesota will be refreshed and prepared going into the game against Green Bay at Lambeau Field, but Aaron Rodgers and company on the other sideline will be too dominant for the Vikings to try and overcome.

Much like what we saw in the Week 1 contest between the two teams, this game could very well be a high scoring contest which normally plays in the favor of Rodgers and the Packers.

With the loss, Minnesota will move even farther behind the rest of the pack in the NFC North and NFC standings, dropping to a brutal record of 1-6 overall.

Somewhat of positive news for the Vikings is that they could get back on track and into the win column at least once over the upcoming few weeks of games. Minnesota will host the Detroit Lions in Week 9 on Nov. 8, hit the road to play the Chicago Bears in Week 10 on Nov. 16 and will return home to welcome the struggling Dallas Cowboys in Week 11 on Nov. 22.

Week 8 on the road against Green Bay won’t end well for Minnesota, and with the trade deadline looming on Nov. 3, we could see the Vikings continue to ship off players while shifting the focus to the future of the franchise.
