Madden Prediction

The conventional wisdom amoung Packer fans this week has been something close to this: Play 8 or 9 in the box, press the receivers, and shut down Peterson. The Vikings can't pass the ball. The problem is, as my game with the Vikings showed, you need all 11 guys to stop Peterson, and it's easy to get caught up thinking "I've got to stop Peterson" to the point that, say, Childress can get a tight end free against Bigby or Rouse. It's going to happen. The Packer just have to make sure it happens minimaly. Also, look for Childress to try and get Rice matched up on Jarret Bush. It's a match-up they had favorable outcomes with last time, and with all the attention on Peterson, they could look to exploit it again.

Final:

Packers: 24

Vikings: 21
