Minnesota Vikings vs. Green Bay Packers Player Prop Picks

The Minnesota Vikings visit the Green Bay Packers in Week 17 of the 2022-23 NFL Season. Both teams are coming off close wins, and the Vikings are coming off a win at the last-second yet again. This should be an interesting matchup for playoff seeding in the NFC. Let’s take a look at some prop bets that make the most sense for this game on Sunday.

Aaron Rodgers Over 255.5 Passing Yards

Aaron Rodgers has not been his usual self this year, but he’s still been good. He has 3,331 passing yards, 24 passing touchdowns, 11 interceptions, and he has a 65% completion percentage on the year. He’s also hit over this number in just 1 of the 15 games the Packers have played in this year, but the matchup is great for him. The Vikings allow 296 passing yards a game, which is ranked as the worst passing defense in the NFL. Rodgers can easily take advantage of that defense, even if he hasn’t hit over 300 yards a game this year. Take this bet strictly based off the defensive matchup Rodgers has against Minnesota. Rodgers is primed for a big game and this is the perfect game for him to have that opportunity. Rodgers may not have been his usual self this year, but this is a perfect game for him to get right.

Justin Jefferson Over 96.5 Receiving Yards

Justin Jefferson has been the best wide receiver in the NFL this year and it hasn’t been that close. He has 123 receptions, 1,756 passing yards, and eight receiving touchdowns on the year. He’s also hit over this number in 11 of the 15 games that the Vikings have played in. Jefferson has been able to torch most defenses this year regardless of rank. The Packers allow 205 passing yards a game which is a tough matchup for Jefferson to take advantage of, especially with Jaire Alexander shadowing him most of the game. Take this bet because Jefferson has been so consistent this year and it seems like it almost doesn’t matter what defense the Vikings play, Jefferson will get his. Jefferson should continue his dominance and even be mentioned in the NFL MVP discussion because he’s been that good.

Aaron Jones Over 55.5 Rushing Yards

Aaron Jones has been a huge key for the Packers’ offense this year. He has 187 carries, 962 rushing yards, and two rushing touchdowns on the year. He’s also hit over this number in 6 of the 15 games that the Packers have played in. He’s been a great running back for the Packers this year and has helped the offense along whenever they were stuck. The Vikings allow 121 rushing yards a game, which is a decent matchup for Jones to try and take advantage of. Take this bet because Jones has been the most consistent part of the Packers offense, and is going to get the opportunities to get over this number. They’ve leaned on Jones more than they have in recent years and it’s paid off a lot this year.
