Minnesota Vikings

Adrian Peterson (Running Back): Peterson is a monster. He finally looks like he is in mid-season form and he is facing a Packers team that has given up 116.2 yards to running backs per game. Peterson is a must start there is no way around it, he may not see as much production as he did last week but based off of competition a small drop off must be expected.

Stefon Diggs (Wide Receiver): Minnesota has figured out how to run the ball leaving Diggs and the other Vikings receivers out in the cold. Diggs has struggled for two consecutive weeks so it is too soon to hit the panic button however he is not one of the recommended starts this week.

 

Green Bay Packers

Randall Cobb/Davante Adams/James Jones (Wide Receivers): There are too many mouths to feed in a struggling offense for anyone of these guys to see production on a consistent basis. Cobb and Adams are your best bet heading into a tough matchup with a Vikings defense that has allowed the 5th fewest receiving touchdowns in 2015.

Aaron Rodgers (Quarterback): Rodgers will hope to bounce back after a horrific loss to not only a rival but one of the worst teams in the league, the Detroit Lions. From a fantasy stand point he has only really struggled once and that was against the Broncos. Rodgers should be throwing all over the place as Green bay tries to find their groove offensively.

Eddie Lacy/James Starks (Running backs): This is a bad matchup through and though. Lacy and Starks owners should sit their running backs until some consistent production or the allure of production exists. The Vikings have allowed 3 rushing touchdowns since week 1, an absolute nightmare matchup.
