The Green Bay Packers are taking care of business against the Minnesota Vikings. Rudy Ford just intercepted Kirk Cousins, the fourth Vikings turnover of the game. With the Washington Commanders’ loss earlier today, the Packers are in control of their destiny. All they need to do is finish this game against the Vikings and then beat the Detroit Lions in Week 18.

Two former Packers players took to Twitter to give their on the team’s recent hot streak:
Former Packers Quarterback Kurt Benkert
All Packers fans love former practice squad quarterback Kurt Benkert. His presence on social media and his interactions with fans have made him a fan-favorite even though he is no longer with the them. He had this to say about the Packers:
The Packers are a team no one wants to see in the Playoffs

Mark Tauscher Weighs In
Former Green Bay Packers offensive lineman Mark Tauscher had something similar to say:
NFC is getting very very very nervous about the Green Bay Packers. This team is peaking at the right time whilst everyone else is fumbling around.

The Packers are certainly putting it all together at the right time. As mentioned before, they just need to win out and they will be in the Playoffs. All of their games will come on the road, but that was the way of things when the Packers won their last Super Bowl, too.
And to think we were 4-8 at one point.
