Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers heads into Week 8 at Minnesota looking for another big game after he played well in Week 7 against Cleveland.
Rodgers had three down games prior to facing the Browns with less than 20 Fantasy points against Cincinnati, Detroit and Baltimore. He ended that streak with 29 points against Cleveland, and he will look to keep rolling against the Vikings.
Minnesota has allowed four quarterbacks to score at least 23 Fantasy points against them this season, including Matthew Stafford, Jay Cutler, Brian Hoyer and Cam Newton. And Rodgers has a good history against the Vikings, as expected.
In his past five games against Minnesota, Rodgers has passed for 1,537 yards, 16 touchdowns and one interception. He has two 300-yard, four-touchdown games at Minnesota over that span.
Even though the Packers will be without Randall Cobb (knee), James Jones (knee) and Jermichael Finley (neck), we still expect Rodgers to shine. Consider him a Top 3 overall quarterback in the majority of leagues this week.
