NOTE: (Seen above; Google Chrome may be your best shot):

Each year we pull together various download links for items that can be very helpful, such as the Official NFL Rulebook, the league’s historical records (2026 NFL Record & Fact Book), and information on the Packers specifically. With Sunday kicking off the new season, we hope these will help someone out there. One of the sources below is only available to be purchased as a printed version (which I always do, having all the Green Bay Packers Yearbooks back to 1960). The printed Green Bay Packers Media Guide can also be purchased from the Pro Shop, for the completists out there (we know who we are).

2026 Week 1: Packers at Vikings

After Training Camp (where you can no longer take photos (so we had nothing to post), the preseason, and a couple weeks of waiting, we’re at the opening of the 2026 NFL regular season. The Packers will be playing in Minnesota (the first of two on the road before returning to Lambeau, facing a hated division rival. Our history there hasn’t been great, but it would surely be nice to come out that stadium with a win. here are our preview social media posts fr today’s game:

Today’s game will be on CBS. We post the weekly NFL TV coverage maps seen below (courtesy of 506 Sports) each Wednesday morning when they are released. They do get updated by game day if needed, as was the CBS Late Game map (Packers vs. Vikings). The area of coverage was increased into Missouri.

This is the updated map to watch the Packers-Vikings game.

The Packers Radio Network map, which is mainly state-wide. We prefer to listen via Packers.com, and sync the audio to the TV broadcast (if you have DVR capability). Listening to Wayne Larrivee & Larry McCarren is MUCH better than the network crews.

The overall and recent series history with the Minnesota Vikings.

The NFL provides each week’s game capsule.

This is the NFL officiating crew that will work today’s Packers at Vikings game.

Before each weekend, we post that week’s games with time and broadcast network information.

The final injury report each week is released on Friday.

We also follow the Packers chartered Delta flight to and from each away game.
