Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers’ (4-5-1) season is currently on life support. Kirk Cousins dropped his career record to 4-12 in primetime games, now 0-3 this season as a member of the Minnesota Vikings (5-4-1). Both meet in a matchup of NFC North teams at U.S. Bank Stadium as Week 12 action continues on Sunday Night Football.
The game is scheduled to start at 8:20 p.m. ET and will be broadcast nationally on NBC. If you don’t have cable or can’t get to a TV, you can still watch a live stream of the game (or DVR it) on your computer, phone or streaming device by signing up for one of the following cable-free, live-TV streaming services:
NBC (live in 31 NFL markets) is included in FuboTV’s main package, which includes 85 total channels and is largely tailored towards sports fans.

Preview
The first time these two teams met at Lambeau Field in Week 2, they tied. That was probably obvious based on seeing their records.
Aaron Rodgers is as good as any quarterback in NFL history following a loss. A loss would effectively eliminate the Packers from playoff contention unless they won out to get to 9-6-1 — unlikely.
Green Bay is expected to have tight end Jimmy Graham in the lineup on Sunday night. Graham sustained a broken thumb in last week’s 27-24 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday night. Originally, the injury was supposed to keep Graham on the shelf for 4-6 weeks, but NFL Network’s Ian Rapaport reported early Sunday the plan was to have Graham start against the Vikings and he will tough it out.
Cousins knows he has to play better, and get the detractors away from any type of contract argument made against him.
“For me, to answer that, I’d have to like be reading it and knowing about it. I really don’t know what’s being said or what’s being scrutinized. I honestly can’t tell you. I know that as an NFL quarterback who’s playing, you’re going to get scrutinized.
I was making league minimum my fourth year in Washington, and I was pretty scrutinized that year, too. So I think it goes without saying that when you’re an NFL quarterback, you’re going to be judged and evaluated inside the building and outside the building, and you understand that’s what you signed up for, and that’s certainly part of the job.”
Minnesota lost to the Chicago Bears on Sunday Night Football last week, but they were underhanded. Linebacker Anthony Barr (hamstring) missed the game, but is expected back on Sunday night.
