MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Jordan Love and Aaron Jones put on party hats and popped a sparkling drink in the apex of an all-night celebration for the at .Love threw three touchdown pa ses and ran for a score to put the Packers in control of a spot in the playoffs with a 33-10 victory Sunday after the benched another .Jones rushed for 120 yards and Jayden Reed had two touchdown catches for the Packers (8-8), who can get the NFC's last wild-card spot by beating Chicago at home next week. Seattle's lo s earlier in the day allowed them to climb above the cut.At the beginning of the season everybody tried to count us out. In the middle of the season everybody tried to count us out, Jones said. I think that speaks to a lot of these guys in this locker room, tuning out the noise and just getting to work.ADVERTISEMENT Love went 24 for 33 for 256 yards in what was surely the finest game of his first year as the starter in the post-Aaron Rodgers era. Hes playing at an incredibly high level. Im super happy for him, because hes put in a ton of work to get to this point, Packers coach Matt LaFleur said. I really think the sky is the limit for us. Hes just showing a glimpse of what he can ultimately be.Last season, Rodgers and the Packers at home to Detroit and mi sed the playoffs.Its an awesome vibe in the locker room, but at the same time everyones focused on what weve got in front of us, Love said.The Vikings (7-9) watched an interception and a fumble by in the first half were converted into touchdowns by the Packers. Nick Mullens took over for Hall for the second half, the fifth time the Vikings have switched quarterbacks since Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles tendon in the fourth quarter of a on Oct. 29.Detroit clinched the NFC North by beating Minnesota here last week, marking just the second time in 13 seasons the division wasn't won by either the Packers or the Vikings, but a prime-time game between these border-state rivals always generates plenty of energy in the stadium. Cousins got the party off to a when he wearing a thick gold chain around his neck and his son ripped off their shirts to lead the crowd in the Skol! chant and blow the Gjallarhorn. Go Pack Go! serenades soon joined the Gregor Blanco Jersey soundtrack, though, and this became quite a New Years Eve blowout.Love was flustered two months ago by the Vikings defense, but despite his penchant for overthrows he has come a long way. The abundant optimism the Packers have for the future is mi sing in Minnesota with Cousins set to become a free agent and no clarity about a potential return or replacement.Hall, who was the first reliever for Cousins two months ago only to be forced out of his first start with a concu sion, hardly had any time to throw. Green Bay's defense that was shredded over the last three games by the Giants, Buccaneers and Panthers and now mi sing starting cornerbacks Jaire Alexander ( ) and Eric Stokes ( ) took full advantage of the rookie from BYU.Halls off-target throw in the first quarter glanced off the hands of Johnny Mundt in an elevated role after the season-ending knee injury to Pro Bowl tight end T.J. Hockenson and in the air to Corey Ballentine for an interception. Loves 33-yard touchdown pa s to Reed came two plays later.I just didn't do them any favors, Hall said.Preston Smiths strip-sack of Hall with 26 seconds left before halftime sealed the deal. Karl Brooks recovered at the Minnesota 37, and the Love-to-Reed connection got Green Bay in the end zone three plays after that for a 23-3 lead.Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell said he told the players afterward, I wasn't good enough for us.REED IS BOOKING ITReed has 10 touchdown catches this season. The second-round draft pick from Michigan State set the franchise rookie record with 60 receptions, pa sing Sterling Sharpe (1988).Both of Reeds scores belong on the highlight reel. Love did the work on the first one with the prettiest pa s of the game to hit Reed in stride on a post route. Reed did the heavy lifting on the second one by dodging two tacklers after the catch and dragging another defender into the end zone.Reed hurt his chest on that play and didnt return for the second half. With Christian Watson and Dontayvion Wicks already sidelined, the Packers are banged up at wide receiver after Samori Toure also left the game. Reed was taken for additional tests after he was hurt.Hopefully he'll be all right for next week, LaFleur said. I know if there's anybody who can get through Logan Webb Jersey it, it's him.INJURY REPORTPackers: LB Isaiah McDuffie (concu sion) was carted off in the second quarter when he collided with Lukas Van Ne s and Colby Wooden during a sack. McDuffie started in place of DeVondre Campbell (neck), who mi sed his second consecutive game.Vikings: RG Ed Ingram (shoulder) left in the third quarter. ... CB Byron Murphy (knee) was sidelined for the second straight game. UP NEXTPackers: Host Chicago next Sunday.Vikings: At Detroit next Sunday.___AP NFL:
