Vikings take over from OWN 32! HERE WE GO! 1st & 10 -- Peterson goes for four

Woodson is active.... Winfield will start and has a hard cast. 

Packers win the toss and elect to defer. Vikings to receive

It looks like the Packers will have a disadvantage now that they're facing a new quarterback who can run and sneak out of the pocket. However, if Webb's nerves aren't on check, the Packers have this one. 

First things first... Who is Joe Webb? We got you with some numbers. 
The basics: 6' 4" 26 years old and went to Alabama-Birmingham
3rd Season QB
He was a part of only 1 play in 2012 and it went for -1 yards.
Career totals: 88/152 completion ration 3 TDs 5 INTS and 11 sacks, 41 rush attempts for 273 yards, 4 TDs, 2 fumbles 

----- Welcome to the live blog of the Vikings vs. Packers----

The Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers go head-to-head in what could be a memorable NFC Wild Card game because of the weather forecast. Kickoff is at 8 p.m. ET and we have the live blog with play-by-play you to follow.

We promise you will be entertained and well informed. Aside from the play-by-play, we will bring images from the action and stats at halftime.

You can rely on Adrian Peterson to fill up the stats. That's for sure. Aside from being the NFC Wild Card game, this matchup provides even more excitement because both teams are NFC North Rivals and just finished playing against each other on Sunday.

Peterson went for 199 yards and fell just nine yards short of the single-season record set by Eric Dickerson back in 1984.

For the Packers, it is redemption for last year's early exit against the New York Giants in the NFC Division round in 2011.

Aaron Rodgers will surely attack the air and become a headache whenever the pocket collapses for the Vikings. Rodgers is trying to capture his second Super Bowl ring as he will attempt to get the Packers back to the big game.

As for the Vikings' quarterback, Christian Ponder is questionable due to an elbow injury and Joe Webb, who hasn't thrown a pass this entire season will likely be in charge of the offense.

You can read our predictions and latest NFL news and gossip at the bottom of the page as we await for kickoff.

This will be a game you don't want to miss.
