I'll admit that I was incredibly confident that the Green Bay Packers were going to win this football game.

I did not, however, think that it would be as much of a butt-kicking as it ended up being.

I can't complain. Actually, I'll do the opposite.

Everything from the kickoff return touchdown, pick-six, Za'Darius Smith's saltiness and Jaire Alexander locking up Justin Jefferson was just... *chef's kiss.*

And now? It's win and the Packers are in.

So let's get into the stock report for the Green Bay Packers after a 41-17 win over the Minnesota Vikings in Week 17.

BUY

Jaire Alexander- I'll be the first to admit that when Jaire Alexander called Justin Jefferson's first game of the season a fluke last week, I became incredibly nervous. That's the type of stuff star players put on a bulletin board and use for motivation. But Alexander talked the talk -- and walked the walk. He shut down Jefferson, holding him to just one catch for 15 yards. Alexander's mixed up looks (sometimes playing off, sometimes jamming at the line) gave both Kirk Cousins and Jefferson fits. That's the type of play we expected to see all season from the highest-paid cornerback in the league.

Offensive line- This was a complete turnaround from Week 1. The offensive line has been solid over these last four games, and, with David Bakhtiari back in the lineup, that stellar play continued on Sunday. The pass rushing duo of Danielle Hunter and Za'Darius Smith was nowhere to be seen. Yosh Nijman left the game again early and Zach Tom (like he's done all season) filled in nicely. There's still some work to be done in the run game with the interior of the unit, but it's good to see the Packers have six guys that can perform at a high level together. Buy.

Kenny Clark- Now THAT is the Kenny Clark we've all come to know and love. I understand that much of his work Sunday was against backups, but he fought through many double teams and took advantage of mismatches, posting four pressures, a strip sack and the recovery. This defensive unit is really rounding out, and part of the reason is because the stars of this defense are finally starting to play like stars.

Keisean Nixon- Maybe the best kick returner in the league? The numbers say so. So awesome to see the Ferrari take off and finally earn a touchdown. Buy.

SELL

Grass- I mean, come on everybody, how is it fair that a dome team has to go outside and play on grass? That shouldn't be allowed. I don't care that both teams had to play on the same level playing field, did you see all the players in white and purple slipping all day? It's clearly why the Minnesota Vikings lost the game. Turf only please, from now on. (This is sarcasm, please enjoy the laugh I got from reading through salty Minnesota fans' tweets).

HOLD

Aaron Rodgers- This is one of the first times in Aaron Rodgers' career that the Packers are winning and it's not solely because of him. Rodgers has put up pretty pedestrian numbers for his standards this season, and that continued on Sunday. He's doing just enough to help the Packers win, but it's clear that the days of him throwing for 350+ yards and 3 touchdowns are long gone. I'm putting him on hold for now, because I'm gambling on him delivering this Sunday against the Lions in an important moment. He'll be eager to exact reveng after one of the worst performances of his career in the previous meeting between the two teams. So I'm advising you hold on to his stock just a little longer.
