Packers lament another poor finish in collapse vs. Vikings
The Green Bay Packers erased three quarters of dominance over a division rival with an implosion down the stretch that looked a lot like the way they finished last season. The Minnesota Vikings scored the last 29 points for a 39-22 victory that pivoted on Packers coach Matt LaFleur's decision to pass on a made field goal and accept a penalty for a fourth-and-1 play at the 17-yard line. Jordan Love's sneak was stuffed before the Vikings drove 83 yards for the go-ahead touchdown.
The Packers has four losses last season when leading by nine-plus points in the second half.
