Mason Crosby
The struggling kicker made some progress in digging himself out of a very deep hole by nailing three out of four field goals, including a 47-yarder in the third quarter and a 31-yarder that gave the Packers a nine-point lead late in the fourth quarter.

Ponder must go: Vikings need more than just ‘game manager’
The NFL is a pass-first league, unless you’re the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings are a run-first—or more accurately a run-only—team for two reasons.

Vikings and Packer Fans Like to Beat Each Other Up
This is Mark Swanson. I'll bet his friends called him "Swanny" in high school. Or Marky. Or ... Well, he's allegedly 39 years old, so maybe he's young enough to have gone by Marky Mark? I don't know. Either way, he's a Minnesota Vikings fan who recently attended a Vikings/Packers game at Lambeau field. In retrospect, he probably wishes he wouldn'...
