Game of the Day

Minnesota at Green Bay, 5 p.m. Saturday (Ch. 5)

The teams played last week, and while Adrian Peterson came up 9 yards short of Eric Dickerson's season rushing record, he carried the Vikings into the playoffs. Seahawks fans will be rooting for Minnesota, keeping alive the hope of hosting the NFC Championship Game should both the Seahawks and Vikings advance that far.
