The Green Bay Packers made short work of the Minnesota Vikings in Week 17, beating their NFC North rivals 41-17 to keep their playoff hopes very much alive.
Offensive spotlight: Packers RB Aaron Jones ran wild on Sunday, racking up 111 yards on 14 attempts, with just 35 yards coming after contact. Three of his runs went for 10 yards or more, and he averaged 5.4 yards before contact per carry on the day.
Defensive spotlight: Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander was tested just once on Sunday — and he forced an incompletion. He'll finish this one with yet another 80.0-plus grade.
Rookie spotlight: Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor ran just five routes, but he caught all three of his targets for 89 yards, one touchdown and two first downs. Two of his catches went for 15 or more yards, and he averaged a ridiculous 17.8 yards per route run on the day.
Offensive line spotlight: In a game that featured high-quality offensive line play, it was Green Bay's unit that came out on top. On first review, the Packers O-line allowed one sack and three hurries across 29 passing plays.
