Sam Darnold's resurgence is the feel-good story of the season, yet it's being eclipsed by Brian Flores' defense. After earning the plaudits of the 49ers' Brock Purdy, it left C.J. Stroud in a tailspin to propel the Vikings to a jaw-dropping 34-7 victory over the Texans. He was sacked four times and forced into throwing two interceptions, while Darnold, Justin Jefferson and Aaron Jones took care of the offense.
The Packers' D sees the Vikings' four and raises them eight. That's how many sacks they unleashed upon Will Levis during the 30-14 beatdown of the Titans. And yet that wasn't the key takeaway from the game. Malik Willis threw for more than 200 yards, rushed for more than 50 yards and scored both through the air and on the ground in a remarkable performance, one that's eased the pressure on the returning Jordan Love.
Right now DraftKings has the Packers as 2.5-point favorites at home. We have all the information on how to watch Vikings vs Packers below, and all of this season's football with our 2024/25 NFL live streams guide.

We've tested many different VPN services and our favorite is NordVPN; it offers superb speeds, excellent customer service and a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it out first to see if it's right for you.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to Sling or Fubo and watch the Vikings vs Packers live stream.
