Who are the announcers and referees for Packers vs. Vikings today?

This is a big one. The Green Bay Packers host the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4 in an important matchup for the entire NFC North. It's a home divisional game against an undefeated team, making it close to a must-win for Matt LaFleur's squad.

LaFleur and Kevin O'Connell are arguably the two early frontrunners for NFL Coach of the Year, having guided their teams to success with backup quarterbacks in the opening three weeks.

They meet on Sunday for a game that could have a significant impact on the playoff standings down the stretch. Green Bay can take over first place in the NFC North with a win, but defeat would create a two-game gap and hand LaFleur's team a costly home divisional loss.
