Vikings vs Packers: Ground Game & Smith | Minnesota Vikings News

The Minnesota Vikings roll into Week One with a completely revamped roster, eight starters gone and a new QB under center—Kyler Murray, who’s tough to sack thanks to a stout line and a ground-focused offense. Green Bay, meanwhile, is missing key pieces including star RB Josh Jacobs, forcing them to rely on unproven backs while their top pass-rusher sits out. Veteran safety Harrison Smith returns just in time to disrupt the Packers’ shaky backfield, likely adding another takeaway to his streak. And don’t sleep on Kyle Van Noy, fresh off the practice squad but primed to make an impact—possibly even recording a sack. Expect a gritty, unpredictable opener as both teams navigate new roles and injuries.
