Vikings vs. Packers: Turnovers fuel Green Bay win

Starks scored on a 22 yard run in the third quarter. It was his first touchdown since Sept. 8, 2011.

Fantasy Impact: Starks had not been much of a fantasy factor this season, but he showed today that he might have some value going forward. The Packers rushed 36 times against the Vikings on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: This makes two games in a row that Rodgers has only thrown for one touchdown. His 286 yards gave him a solid day, but not what we have come to expect from Rodgers.

Fantasy Impact: Peterson is an absolute monster. This is his sixth straight game with over 100 yards rushing as Peterson continues his impressive season after undergoing offseason knee surgery.

Obviously if you have Adrian Peterson you are starting him every week and are incredibly happy with how he has been performing. If Peterson continues at his current pace he will have his best ever season in terms of yards rushing.

Peterson has rushed for 126 yards on 13 carries, including an 82-yard touchdown to give the Vikings the lead in the game. Peterson is approaching 20 fantasy points, and the game isn’t even at halftime yet.

Fantasy Impact: Adrian Peterson is obviously back to full strength at this point in the season, and his play is evidence of that. He has regained his spot among the league’s best fantasy football running backs and has proven to be matchup problem.

Christian Ponder doesn’t have a lot of reliable options in the passing game. While Percy Harvin is a great playmaker who can be moved all over the field when healthy, he breaks down due to his size and stature late in the season. This year is no different; Harvin is inactive for the third straight game.

So Ponder looks to unlikely target Kyle Rudolph early and often, and as such Rudolph has emerged as a touchdown threat. The Notre Dame product may have only 43 receptions on the year, but his eight touchdowns -- including one today against the Green Bay Packers -- have made him a fantasy must-start at a relatively shallow position (with plenty of tight ends either injured or having disappointing seasons).

The Packers are, once again, really banged up. Matthews is out for his fourth game of the season with a hamstring injury. Driver is out with a thumb injury. White is sidelined with a concussion. Woodson is missing his fifth straight game with a collarbone injury. Manning is out with a shoulder issue, Wilson a knee injury and Shields an ankle injury.

Harvin is the only inactive player to be listed on the Vikings’ official injury report. An ankle injury has kept the wide receiver from playing in a game since a Week 9 loss to Seattle. On the season, he has 62 catches for 677 yards and three touchdowns. Rushing, Harvin has 22 carries for 96 yards and two touchdowns.
