POLL: Who will claim the NFC North crown in Week 17 showdown?

Published Dec. 28, 2015 10:24 a.m. ET

The Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings will meet at Lambeau Field in Week 17, and they'll bring identical 10-5 records to the showdown. The winner will be named the 2015 NFC North champion; the loser will enter the playoffs as a Wild Card team.

The NFL has moved the game into a primetime, Sunday night slot.

The Packers were embarrassed in a 38-8 loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, while the Vikings beat up the New York Giants in a 49-17 decision. Although the Packers have led the division all season, there was definitely a major momentum swing in Week 16.

When these two teams last met at TCF Bank Stadium in Week 11, the Packers won 30-13. The Vikings have won only one game -- a 37-34 triumph in Week 17 of the 2012 season -- in this series since 2010.
