    The Vikings are trending upward.

    You need luck at QB. That's just like every Top Tier NFL Team.

    How so? Because they defeated a beat up team that lost their starting QB and leader? They do have a couple of easy games coming up but who among us thought KC would lose at home today or Atlanta would lose to Miami?

    Yeah, no kidding. Football is so weird. Packers looked to have the whole thing coming back their way at the start of the game and then KABOOM it all gets blown to hell. Next thing you know, Hundley surprises everyone and turns into a season-long fuckdoggle extraordinaire and we're all like Hey, wha happened? ( I'm in the bargaining stage).

    I think that was negated by a penalty.

    Studs.....yeah Martinez had a solid game. And Kenny Clark made a play. Other than that...
    Duds
    O-line. Look I know we are not at full strength, but Jesus give the young guy a little time.
    Cobb, Jordy, Bennett, Montgomery. Our skill players were exposed as being mediocre at best. There is zero explosiveness, zero separation, little in the way of favorable matchups.
    Hundley- he's a backup. But we've heard the coaches rave about him. It's the NFL you can't be inaccurate and make bad decisions.
    MM-Not going for fourth and a foot at midfield. Terrible clock management on our final possesion. No need to keep the clock running.
    Defense- You suck at tackling. You suck at creating pressure You suck at covering in space. Minus a couple turnovers, the Vikings B squad could have easily dropped 35 today.

    This team is woefully untalented. Aaron makes it look easy by keeping us in the mix every year. But I just look at the team outside of him and see a bunch of guys. Nobody is game planning for them.

    Adams and Barr were elsewhere I believe.
    It was in the background of one of the replays. Barr went up to Adams and put his helmet on Adams in a "macho" celebratory way. The penalty was completely warranted.

    The whole training staff is a dud. Look i understand injuries happen but I watch a lot of games and announcers never go on and on about injuries the way they do for the packers game after game. At this point I'd rather have the strength and conditioning staff be led by Richard Simmons.

    That is what I saw. What I don't remember his how OOB the actual tackle on the ball got.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    On replay, I thought they could have thrown a flag on the extra shove out of bounds. Run real-speed (as slow-motion either makes things look better or worse), it looks a lot more border line.

    Don't worry. We won't be the national game of the week for awhile. Troy is boning up on the Eagles roster atm.

    But they did it without their QB, RB1 or WR1

    They had 2 or 3 weeks to prep a game plan for the backup. I bet Keenum actually saw some practice snaps too.

    C'mon, give the offense a week to adjust.

    I don't know how to feel about the defense. Despite all the carnage, they kept it close and got the ball back. Hell, they manufactured the offenses second score.

    the 'boning up' part is probably true.

    Being an ex-Cowboy, is this like a grudge jerk for old Troy?

    I'm feeling sorry but here's your Reality Check and where noted NFL Sites have the Green Bay Packers Ranked Vs our Rival Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings have moved past the Green Bay Packers too Week Seven of the NFL Schedule.

    It is what it really is ! I'm feeling sorry for you and your fan.....ness. That has to be tough !

    The Viking are 'in fact' ahead of the Packers and THE NFL POWER RANKING and that's the case across the entire board on NFL.Com and ESPN and CBS and Yahoo Internet Pro Sports Sites.

    They did it because of their defense. If we had their defense the loss of #12 wouldn't be so devastating.

    Then you evidently agree with wist43.

    Until TT and the Defensive expertise on the Green Bay Packers Staff can draft on 'D' the Green Bay Packers and Super Bowl is in all probability a mere illusion. Great NFL Teams have great 'D's'.

    It's a hand and hand thing:

    A great QB and 'O' also needs 'at least a decent 'D'.

    The Packers do not have a decent 'D'. That is particularly the case and Pass Rush now and in the Packer Secondary.

    The Green Bay Packers need a whole different direction and Drafting for the next five Seasons. For the past five Seasons Ted Thompson and his Scouting Team and the DC etc. have blown it and getting the help that Aaron Rodgers and the Packer 'O' has needed on DEFENSE.

    What's the answer Pugger if it isn't a prayer that TT steps away?
