Prediction: Pain for Pack, Part Deux

First of all, if you've been following my amazingly perfect record predicting Vikings games this year, and are planning to bet the house on my pick, I should warn that I could never pick the Pack to beat the Vikes, even if Les Steckel was coaching and Sean Salsibury was at quarterback.  That said, although the Pack has improved, and the Vikes are a bit dinged up, the Vikes are clearly a better team, and the defense played its best game of the year at the Steelers last week.  I think the defense will show up again; the only ways the cheeseheads beat the Vikes are if the Ol' Gunslinger is too amped up and throws a few picks or another snow job by the refs.  Hopefully, neither happens.
