J.J. McCarthy led Minnesota down the field on the Vikings' opening possession before picking up a taunting penalty after a 6-yard run to push them back to second-and-19 at the Green Bay 38.

Daniel Whelan boomed a 62-yard punt that Bo Melton downed at the Minnesota 2.

Jordan Mason gained 11 yards on first down, but the Vikings were forced to punt after Packers linebacker Jamon Johnson tackled Mason for no gain on third-and-1. Green Bay took over at its 30.

Chris Brooks broke a 10-yard run to open. The Packers went no-huddle and Tune completed his first pass to Drake Dabney for three yards. On third-and-5 from the Green Bay 45, Dallas Turner had a strip sack of Tune that the Packers recovered.

Whelan's 68-yard punt went for a touchback. Rookie fifth-round pick Collin Oliver, making his NFL debut, pressured McCarthy into a throwaway from the Minnesota 38.

That play helped set up Barryn Sorrell stopping Ty Chandler for a 1-yard loss on third-and-1 to force another Vikings punt. Green Bay took over at its 10.
