For this evening's Week 16 Vikings-Packers game there is a little something at stake for both these division rivals as Minnesota looks to clinch home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs while Green Bay is simply playing for pride.  

It is possible with Aaron Rodgers back on the injury reserve, Minnesota has the potential to romp all over Green Bay with a line of -9 at Lambeau Field.  The Packers have only been a home underdog of between 7.5 to 10 points ONCE in 25 years.

Aaron Rodgers or no Aaron Rodgers and regardless or whether the Packers are heading to the Playoffs or not, the NFL Betting Power Ratings should still be accurate for this game with a line calculation of Minnesota -3.5, unless of course the Packers just decide to take a nap this day (highly doubtful).

Rodgers, whose right collarbone was broken during a season-defining loss at Minnesota in Week 6, briefly made a comeback last week in hopes of driving his struggling team into the playoffs but instead managed to throw three interceptions in a killer loss at Carolina.
