I don't know if it's from lack of contact or what but it seems like as soon as guys get to the NFL they get hurt tripping over a blade of grass.
    I suspect it is a lack of contact/padded practices.

    They have been doing away with padded practices and contact since Bill Walsh became a head coach.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Corey Linsley on Ulrick John playing right tackle: "You can tell when a guy walks in if he gives a shit or not, and Ulrick does." #Packers

    I have to hope this is the minimum standard.

    We'll have to wish Hundley a lot of luck this week...he lives like 100 yards from us....my daughter fell off her bike in front of him and he has basically ran away from us every time we go for a walk past his house. #stalkers

    Nah, he's actually really nice. He has always said hi to us. Just since my daughter fell, he seems to see us coming.

    Dirty hit? I don't think so. Did he do everything he could inside the rules to hurt him? Yep. But legal and not dirty.

    A hard hit on opponent's scrambling QB. Nothing illegal or dirty. We complain about the pussyfying of the game, then also complain when a defender makes a hard, legal hit?

    Dana has had enough of the Packers being coddled by refs over the years.

    Dana Litman‏ @DanaLitman
    Not only are Packer fans whiners but their reports do too...guess that’s what happens when refs baby them for years.

    Who in the fuck is Dana Litman and why would anyone give a shit about what he thinks or says? If we start posting every ignorant statement muttered by every random asshole on social media we'll end up breaking the internet. The cloud isn't big enough to hold that much stupid.

    lol
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

    He was yelling at Wilde when when asked of the hit was legal or dirty.

    The internet already posted it, I put it here because Vikes fans are still seething over their neighbors even after a win.

    The refs jobbed the shit out of the Pack today. The standards on what constituted a catch for the Vikings was "in the vicinity of the ball".

    Not that Green Bay would have won anyway, but they might have been within striking distance at the end.

    I just can't get into blaming the refs. Because every Viking fan I know (its not a lot) prior to Ras just loved to think they were Dana Litman and lived under an eternal ref curse.

    Its not just Favre or Rodgers, the guys I know thought Ditka got all the calls when he coached the Bears.

    I don't believe in any systematic side-taking in officiating in the NFL. I also believe that over the course of a season, calls even out.

    It just seemed today that the net benefit of missed calls fell to the Vikings and it was magnified due to the injury to Rodgers.
