Datone and James had big games for Green Bay, while Eddie Lacy and Mason Crosby bounced back as well.
Yesterday afternoon, the Green Bay Packers got back to their winning ways in a critical NFC North game, as they went west to Minnesota and drubbed the Vikings by the score of 30-13. A few players on offense who have been struggling lately were huge keys to the Packers' win, as the running game got going and helped keep pressure off Aaron Rodgers.
Meanwhile, the defense posted another impressive performance, holding Adrian Peterson to his fewest number of yards and carries since week one. With Peterson shut down, the pass rush pinned its ears back and got after Teddy Bridgewater, finally looking like the unit that we saw over the first five games.
Here are some looks back at Sunday's game in today's cheese curds.
