Five Good Questions with Acme Packing Company

Five Good Questions with Acme Packing Company

We’re inching closer to Sunday, folks, and that means it’s time for us to get some intel from the other side. We’re talking to the folks who run the SB Nation site for the Minnesota Vikings’ opponent this week, and that means we’re talking to Acme Packing Company, the home of everything relating to the Green Bay Packers on our network.

Yours truly had the opportunity to exchange questions with Justis Mosqueda, one of the writers over at APC, as we head into what feels like one of the least-hyped Border Battles in quite some time. They have not posted...

Vikings vs Packers Preview: Can Everything Click In?

Can a struggling 2025 Vikings team upset the Packers at Lambeau and keep their minuscule playoff dreams alive? In the latest episode of The Real Forno Show, Tyler Forness and producer Dave Stefano deliver a no-holds-barred breakdown of Minnesota’s must-win Week 12 clash against Green Bay. With QB J.J. McCarthy’s mechanics under fire, a surprising roster cut, and a battered Packers offense, this episode perfectly captures the tension of Packers Hate Week.

Here’s what Tyler and Dave tackled in this fiery episode:

  • J.J. McCarthy’s road magic vs home struggles: Why he thrives away (two road wins) but collapses...

Vikes Views: Who Ya Got? Vikings at Packers

The Minnesota Vikings will be on the road to take on the Green Bay Packers. The unfrozen tundra will host the 130th meeting between the two teams. The Vikings are looking to continue their two-game win streak against a banged-up Packers team. The Packers’ form has not been great, with losses to the Panthers and Eagles and a close win against Jameis Winston and the New York Giants. This game kicks off three straight divisional games for the Packers. Five of their last seven games will be against NFC North opponents. The Vikings have lost two straight after a big...

Vikings at Packers: Second Injury Report

Vikings at Packers: Second Injury Report

The Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers have issued their second injury reports in advance of Sunday’s game at Lambeau Field. Here they are (changes in bold):

Minnesota Vikings

  • RG Will Fries, Knee, Limited
  • OLB Jonathan Greenard, Shoulder, Limited
  • LT Christian Darrisaw, Knee, DNP
  • RB Aaron Jones, Shoulder, Full
  • C Ryan Kelly, Concussion, Full

The Vikings look on track to be as injury-free as they’ve been all season, with Will Fries and Jonathan Greenard being upgraded to limited in Thursday’s practice, suggesting they may be on track to play on Sunday. Christian Darrisaw had...

The Vibes Are Not Good

The Vibes Are Not Good

The Minnesota Vikings somehow managed to take the lead for a brief moment before suffering a well-deserved loss to the Chicago Bears at U.S. Bank Stadium.

Here are some thoughts:

PAGING JIM MORA

At 4-6, 2-3 in the NFC, and with a daunting schedule ahead, playoff hopes are probably finished. Yeah, yeah, mathematically this and scenario that, but c’mon now. We’re now 10 games into the season, and aside from the Bengals game, the Vikings have played complementary, playoff-quality football for, what, maybe five quarters? I’ll dust off the playoff talking points if we somehow manage to get back to...

Vikings at Packers: First Injury Report

Vikings at Packers: First Injury Report

The Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers have issued their first injury reports in advance of Sunday’s game at Lambeau Field. Here they are:

Minnesota Vikings

  • RG Will Fries, Knee, DNP
  • OLB Jonathan Greenard, Shoulder, DNP
  • LT Christian Darrisaw, Knee, Full
  • RB Aaron Jones, Shoulder, Full
  • C Ryan Kelly, Concussion, Full

Ryan Kelly being a full participant on Wednesday suggests he’ll start on Sunday, gaining back his starting spot from Blake Brandel, who did a good job in his stead. Will Fries not participating was a bit of a surprise, but this may be...

Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Did You Fall Off The Bandwagon?

Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Did You Fall Off The Bandwagon?

The Bears loss was especially tough since it put the odds for the playoffs very low. The Vikings have a 5% chance to make the playoffs. If they win it goes to 11% and if they lose it goes to 2%. Not good. Not what many were expecting even with a “rookie” QB especially after the moves they made in the offseason. Not many observers thought the moves were made to rebuild. I do not believe the Wilf’s are interested in rebuilding. There will be some splainin to do this offseason by KAM and KOC. In the end, with many...

The Vikings Could End Up Playing Overseas Again in 2026

The Vikings Could End Up Playing Overseas Again in 2026

The Minnesota Vikings have made trips to Europe as a part of the NFL’s International Series in three of the last four seasons, and there’s at least a possibility that they could make it four out of five in 2026. . .and, potentially, add a new country stamp to their passports to boot.

Numerous sources are reporting that the New Orleans Saints are finalizing negotiations to be the “home team” for what would be the NFL’s first regular season game in Paris, France, and that the game could take place as early as the 2026 season.

Guess who’s scheduled to...

2025 NFL Week 12: Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers

2025 NFL Week 12: Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers

On Sunday, the Minnesota Vikings will complete their 2025 slate of NFC North divisional road games as they make their annual journey to deepest, darkest Wisconsin to face the Green Bay Packers.

The Vikings come into this one having lost two winnable games in a row. The focus has been on the struggles of young quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who has had a rough go of it in his first five NFL starts. Still, he engineered what could (or should) have been the game-winning drive against Chicago at U.S. Bank Stadium last week, but the Bears won the game on a...
