Official Packers at Vikings Gameday Thread

[Bretsky]

How bout some Finley Time ?????

[pittstang5]

Ugh!

[red]

the hell

EDS just standing 5 yards away from the play, watching the birds

THAT IS A DROP!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pbmax]

That slip by Jennings opened the play up

Yeah shoes are still an issue. Players need to change or adjust.

[esoxx]

Fuck the vikes!

[Bretsky]

did Finely drop that or was that knocked out by Cook ??

[ThunderDan]

Drive is letting the D rest. Let's punch it in, stop the Vikes and get a FG before half.

[pittstang5]

I see a FG attempt in our future. Things just aren't going good.

[red]

did Finely drop that or was that knocked out by Cook ??

probably would have been nice to see a replay

they showed four or five of the pass to jordy, that even if caught would have been out

[Cheesehead Craig]

did Finely drop that or was that knocked out by Cook ??

I think that was knocked out personally.

[Bretsky]

Just get a TD and we'll be fine

[Bretsky]

that is a dam touchtown !!!!!!!!!!!!

[red]

thats a TD, NO?

[ThunderDan]

TD GB!

[Cheesehead Craig]

That's a TD

[Bretsky]

throw the flag !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cheesehead Craig]

Well, they get 3 more downs

[Bretsky]

fuck.......come on Jennings

[pittstang5]

Drop by Jennings - just shows the day they're having.

[pbmax]

Why not challenge?

Greg should have had that.

[Packers4Glory]

missed it 3 times..3 drops on the play

[ThunderDan]

throw the flag !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think they do if they hadn't already used one.

[esoxx]

Wtf!

[pittstang5]

another wasted timeout. C'mon, this isn't your first rodeo.

[Bretsky]

this shit schtinks.......................are they not getting plays in fast enought ? WTF ??

[KYPack]

Ball beat him to death, didn't it?

[pbmax]

did Finely drop that or was that knocked out by Cook ??

I don;t think he had it until end as LB had one arm pinned.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Punch it in........that toss play to Harris around tackle will get there.

[Packers4Glory]

Why not challenge?

Greg should have had that.

I think it was a good no challenge. Could have said he didn't have possession till he was out of the endzone. then he'd be out of challenges.

[pbmax]

another wasted timeout. C'mon, this isn't your first rodeo.

Problem with refs setting up ball.

[red]

this shit schtinks.......................are they not getting plays in fast enought ? WTF ??

that or the clock is being reset way to fast

rodgers is pissed about something

[pittstang5]

OH COME ON! NOBODY OPEN!!!!!

[ThunderDan]

Crabtree mugged in the endzone!!!!!

[KYPack]

Let's run it.

[Packers4Glory]

afraid to run inside the 5 yard line. easy for the defense if you don't have to defend the run.

[Bretsky]

should have challenged the play and got the TD

[red]

THAT WAS A TD

you gotta challenge that fat ass

[esoxx]

Juggled it

[pbmax]

I don't think Fin had that ball in end zone. Maybe catch on the one.

[red]

TD

WHOOHOOOOOO

[pittstang5]

About Fucking Time! Sheesh!

[Cheesehead Craig]

Way to go Old Spice

[KalamazooPackerFan]

The pride of Kalamazoo!

[KYPack]

Divine justice & all that shit.

[ThunderDan]

There it is! TD Packers!

[Packers4Glory]

thank God. would have preferred Jones or Nelson to catch it tho....hah

[KalamazooPackerFan]

THAT WAS A TD

you gotta challenge that fat ass

Not sure they would have overturned it...not the way our luck has been.

[pbmax]

should have challenged the play and got the TD

I think the ball stopped moving because the LB had an arm on it, not Finley possession. Might not have gone their way. Still might have been worth challenge.

But if it cost TO, then would have had delay of game.

[gbgary]

finally.

[red]

I don't think Fin had that ball in end zone. Maybe catch on the one.

i think the ball stopped moving when it was right over the line, which would be a TD

but who the hell knows in this day and age what a catch is and where it technically happens

[pittstang5]

I don't think Fin had that ball in end zone. Maybe catch on the one.

Possesion - no, I think he was bobbling a little and had full control when he went down near the 1 yd line.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Going back to the punt return I gotta say, Ross runs with more power than Cobb, a bit less speed but he just goes.

[pbmax]

Let's run it.

Would have been nice set of downs (1st and goal at 3) for that fullhouse backfield.

[red]

real nice break for the D

now the games on

we get it first in the second half

[Cheesehead Craig]

Why let them return it? Just kick it out of the endzone!

[pittstang5]

OMG - Now SP Teams are sucking too, Fire Slocum!!!

[ThunderDan]

Holding on the Vikes lets the return man bounce it outside.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Where's the freaking tackling? A stop here puts in the position to even up at the half.

[KYPack]

Crosby can't kick off or kick FG's?

[Bretsky]

Come of fricking Crosby you douchebag
THis is the Metrodome
Kick the Ball out of the End Zone

May I be the first ?

FIRE SLOCUM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pbmax]

What is the kickoff coverage doing? Playing patty cake? Why did no one get a hand on the returner?

[red]

special teams starting to play special again

slocum strikes back. i knew he couldn't fly under the radar all season

[Packers4Glory]

Come on there was NO way they should have challenged that TD. It was close and you can't afford to lose your last challenge on a questionable call that could go either way in the 2nd Qt. He may need that bullet later in a more critical situation. They got a penalty that set them up on the 3 w/ a fresh set of downs. It was absolutely the right call to sit on that challenge there.

[pittstang5]

WTH Clay - Why is everyone truying to tacle high?

[red]

that just about sums it up

[Cheesehead Craig]

Gotta be kidding me.

[pittstang5]

NO FUCKING WAY! C'mon, now!!!

[pbmax]

Come of fricking Crosby you douchebag
THis is the Metrodome
Kick the Ball out of the End Zone

May I be the first ?

FIRE SLOCUM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They have done that on purpose, high, hanging kick to just inside end line. But need coverage to stop him inside 20.

Not a catch.

[pittstang5]

Fucked by the refs again!

[Packers4Glory]

wtf kind of game is this..we got all sorts of guys around that shit and they catch it.

[Bretsky]

this sucks........such bullshit..........no TO's with three minutes left in the qtr

Horeshit .............................

[Cheesehead Craig]

Fucked by the refs again!

They rewarded the effort without being able to actually see the ball

[ThunderDan]

The refs are being influenced by the home fans!

[Bretsky]

They have done that on purpose, high, hanging kick to just inside end line. But need coverage to stop him inside 20.

Not a catch.


If they did that on purpose then they absolutely should fire Slocum

Making the Vikes start at the twenty is a huge advantage

[red]

They have done that on purpose, high, hanging kick to just inside end line. But need coverage to stop him inside 20.

Not a catch.

how often do we hold anyone inside the 20 though?

that strategy needs to go along with slocum

[pbmax]

If they did that on purpose then they absolutely should fire Slocum

Making the Vikes start at the twenty is a huge advantage

Has worked all year with a few exceptions. But the tackling today has been awful

[Bretsky]

So when you have used up three timeouts on offense ....................who is that on ? The head coach ? Inexcusable !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[red]

we couldn't challege that play because we were out of timeouts

wayne says it was clearly a trap

[esoxx]

Fucking metrodome fucking bullshit!

[Cheesehead Craig]

Got burned on the safety blitz

[Bretsky]

nice tackling

[pbmax]

how did Burnett not get a hand on him?

[pittstang5]

good lord!

[pbmax]

Got burned on the safety blitz

It was a run blitz and he was right in the hole. But he stopped and let AP go.

[Guiness]

That is the second time Peterson is stopped at the LOS...and runs for 10+ yards.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Just got bitchslapped on that drive

[Bretsky]

awesome................fuck

[red]

Fuck us

defense is just going threw the motions today

fucking disgusting

[Packers4Glory]

great job by ST and the defense there.

[ThunderDan]

Horrible coverage!

[wootah]

Don't worry guys. MM's halftime adjustments will make this a piece of cake in the 2nd half.

[Packers4Glory]

we have about as much of a chance at winning a super bowl as the bears would. too many flaws.

[Bretsky]

Gotta wonder again
How in the hell can you piss away all three of your timeouts on offense ? That shit is Wayne Fonte's and Rich Kotite Like

[pittstang5]

What is going on! This is not even close to what I expected. Did they not prepare, this is worse than pathetic.

[ThunderDan]

Gotta wonder again
How in the hell can you piss away all three of your timeouts on offense ? That shit is Wayne Fonte's and Rich Kotite Like

AROD IS PISSED WITH CAREY SPOTTING THE BALL!!

[Rutnstrut]

Getting text messages from a buddy at the game. He says the Packers are FLAT, and showing zero urgency.

[Guiness]

Gotta wonder again
How in the hell can you piss away all three of your timeouts on offense ? That shit is Wayne Fonte's and Rich Kotite Like

I think we're all wondering that. They burned the last one on 2nd and goal when we got the TD. Looked to me like the play didn't get in, AR was standing around and called the TO with about 5 seconds on the play clock.

[pbmax]

Gotta wonder again
How in the hell can you piss away all three of your timeouts on offense ? That shit is Wayne Fonte's and Rich Kotite Like

I dunno. Two of the TOs have been had Rodgers berating the refs for standing over the ball. Not sure what the beef is. Will be curious to see what Rodgers after the game.

[pbmax]

Finley is loving this route lately.

[ThunderDan]

Late hit by the 3rd Viking on Jennings!?

[red]

and now we're screwed again with no timeouts

really fucking dumb burning all the TO's early

[Packers4Glory]

lets drive down to get a missed FG to end the half...that would be par for the course.

[Packers4Glory]

i wish we'd fake that spike and quick throw outside 1 on 1

[red]

you CAN NOT give up a sack there

[Rutnstrut]

Get rid of the ball you dumb ass Rodgers!!!!

[pittstang5]

DUMB Ass You have to throw it away! GOD, are you a FUCKING ROOKIE FUCK YOU RODGERS, FUCK YOU!

[ThunderDan]

Great plY BY Finley there.

[red]

there you go mase

[Bretsky]

that was a great play to get out of bounce
He'll miss

[Packers4Glory]

this fucking line sucks dick

[Cheesehead Craig]

Crushed it

[pbmax]

Getting text messages from a buddy at the game. He says the Packers are FLAT, and showing zero urgency.

Tell him thanks for the insight :roll:.

[Brandon494]

Rodgers needs to spend the whole off season working on HOW TO GET RID OF THE DAMN FOOTBALL.... seriously thats his only weakness.

[Packers4Glory]

lets run the 2 min offense all next half.

[ThunderDan]

Tough half for the Pack and only down 10. We get the ball first and can close it to 3.

[red]

That was about as ugly as a first half could get

[pbmax]

Great kick for Mason.

[pittstang5]

Crosby, nice. But what the fuck is up with everyone else. Fucking D, Fucking Rodgers, Fucking Kick off team. GET YOU SHIT TOGETHER!!!

[Brandon494]

i wish we'd fake that spike and quick throw outside 1 on 1

That never works

[red]

what happens if san fran losses?

are we the #2 no matter what?

[Bretsky]

Michael the Dirty Crab is turning into a star

[pbmax]

Nice play call with clock ticking for that Finley crossing route/WR screen to get yards and OOB.

[red]

lets run the 2 min offense all next half.

should help cut down on all the stupid time outs

[gbgary]

fin seemed injured after that last catch.

[pbmax]

what happens if san fran losses?

are we the #2 no matter what?

No. Lose and it takes small miracle to keep bye week.

[red]

what happens if san fran losses?

are we the #2 no matter what?

seattle would have to loose too i think

[ThunderDan]

10 points down feels like a late Christmas present.

[pittstang5]

this fucking line sucks dick

Normally I would agree, but Rodgers has had time. When you have no time outs and are driving for at least a FG, YOU CAN NOT TAKE A SACK. He knows this, he's consistantly having a brain-fart at these types of moments!

[pbmax]

fin seemed injured after that last catch.

Yep, saw that too.

[wootah]

fin seemed injured after that last catch.

Saw that too. They seemed to be checking out the knee.

[red]

fin seemed injured after that last catch.

that seems about right

[Rastak]

what happens if san fran losses?

are we the #2 no matter what?


Yup.

[gbgary]

should help cut down on all the stupid time outs

refs won't get out of the way in time.

[ThunderDan]

what happens if san fran losses?

are we the #2 no matter what?

If SF looses we are #2 no matter what!

[Rastak]

You lose, guess who you'll likely play? :-)

[JohnMexico]

what happens if san fran losses?

are we the #2 no matter what?


Then you worry about Seattle and their bitchass phantom victory. Hopefully the Rams hold them off, because they can still win division and our tiebreaker i believe.

[red]

the play there has to be for quick hitters, not plays that take time to develop. dumb on the coach for that

bu i also would have liked to see a-rod roll out right away to buy time and if need be, throw it away without a grounding penalty

[Joemailman]

what happens if san fran losses?

are we the #2 no matter what?

If Packers and 49ers lose, Seahawks would get the #2 seed with a win.

[pittstang5]

You lose, guess who you'll likely play? :-)

Now it's all over. Rastak is here. Game over, boys, game over.

[Brandon494]

Not worried, we'll come back and win.

[red]

You lose, guess who you'll likely play? :-)

great, do we really?

[pbmax]

You lose, guess who you'll likely play? :-)

Yep. Back in Lambeau. Yay.

Hello Ras!

[pittstang5]

Not worried, we'll come back and win.

Can I have what your smoking?

[Rastak]

Yea, if you end up the 3rd seed. Vikings would be 6.

[Jimx29]

Don't worry guys. MM's halftime adjustments will make this a piece of cake in the 2nd half.

[red]

Then you worry about Seatle and their bitchass phantom victory. Hopefully the Rams hold them off, because they can still win division and our tiebreaker i believe.

then i riot

[MadtownPacker]

what happens if san fran losses?

are we the #2 no matter what?
That's right bitch, and it looks like AZ is keeping it close. Trip on this, if seattle wins and
SF loses the Packer would play SF (if vikings win today that is).

[pbmax]

Winfield is hurt with ballcap on. No official word.

[red]

Yea, if you end up the 3rd seed. Vikings would be 6.

in all honesty though, i think i would rather play you guys over any of the other possible matchups

i just don't have faith in ponder to do much

[pbmax]

That Crosby kick was dead straight. I hope to God and dog that he has figured it out.

[MadtownPacker]

You lose, guess who you'll likely play? :-)
I like Packers chances on that rematch!

[Rastak]

Greets PB....will likely be back watching the game second half without laptop so probably won't be here unless I go grab it.

Wearing the Helga Horns for the first time ever just for the occasion. Thought this team would win about 6 games so I'm pretty damn stoked.

[ThunderDan]

That Crosby kick was dead straight. I hope to God and dog that he has figured it out.

That was a 2011 kick.

[Rastak]

He pretty much sucks so yea, I hear ya.

Talking to Red.

[MadtownPacker]

No matter how this shakes out I like the Pack vs any of the NFC playoff teams. No giants is good news.

[Bretsky]

OK, that was a terrible half
But we can recover

Very important........NO turnovers.............play smart ball.

Get plays in faster so we don't have to give away our timeouts

[pbmax]

Harris cuts that earlier and it a big run

[ThunderDan]

Great block by FInley. Pancake!

[Jimx29]

No matter how this shakes out I like the Pack vs any of the NFC playoff teams. No giants is good news.

QFT

[red]

huge block by fin

[Packers4Glory]

Great block by FInley. Pancake!

yeah! now a sack..fuck

[pbmax]

Finley has his head in this game. He's bringing it.

And Rodgers trips on his own feet. Or Barclay's feet.

[gbgary]

nice block by fin and rac by jones.

[Packers4Glory]

this team can't help but step all over its own dick as soon as it gets some momentum.

[pbmax]

That was a decade best juke by GJ!

[ThunderDan]

Nice move by Jennings.

[red]

you guys really want to let that go?

you really think thats not a top 5 WR?

[Packers4Glory]

thats the reason we don't wanna lose Jennings. thats what a healthy jennings does.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Jennings is the man!

[gbgary]

woohoo...what a play gj.

[red]

nice

game on

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Holy crap.....how the hell did Jennings get that wide open?

[Packers4Glory]

WIDE OPEN...i was screaming it

thank God he heard me

[ThunderDan]

How do you leave Jennings wide open in the endzone?

[Jimx29]

there's why deferring the kick to start he game works

[Guiness]

There are a lot of people in this stadium that could throw that?

You ass.

[red]

our guys have had coverage mix ups

but nothing that bad, wow

[ThunderDan]

Tough half for the Pack and only down 10. We get the ball first and can close it to 3.

BUMP!!!!!

[red]

my drunk ass could have hit him from all the way over here

[Brando19]

Pay Jennings!!! TT can't let him walk!

[ThunderDan]

I LIKE the T-Mobile girl!

[pbmax]

Just for that catch and run Mrs. Jennings should let Greg have a fifth kid tonight!

[gbgary]

now a 3 & out would be nice...or a turnover.

[mmmdk]

This game is hard to watch.

[Packers4Glory]

lets get a turnover and really swing this thing. dominate this half. shut down AP

[esoxx]

Just for that catch and run Mrs. Jennings should let Greg have a fifth kid tonight!

Condom free zone!

[Bretsky]

BUMP!!!!!

Great Call

[Joemailman]

Vikings with the Invisible Man coverage.

[MadtownPacker]

BUMP!!!!!
Stat whore.

[Jimx29]

Thanks for popping in Ras ;)

[ThunderDan]

This game is hard to watch.

Not really, I sit here and blog and drink beer!!

[pbmax]

there's why deferring the kick to start he game works

I thought it was to help ARod get more 4th Quarter comebacks?

[red]

I LIKE the T-Mobile girl!

thats the "no shit" statement of the day

[esoxx]

That's 2,000 yards

[pbmax]

Would someone please help Raji?

[Rutnstrut]

Come on, TACKLE!!!!

[red]

Not really, I sit here and blog and drink beer!!

+1

[Bretsky]

hmmmm...........didn't somebody say AP would be kept to under 100 ?

[Packers4Glory]

how is this possible? how can we let a teams only weapon destroy us again.??

[pittstang5]

Ok, I prayed and sacrificied achicken to the football Gods during half time. Looks like it hasn't helped the Defense.

[wootah]

Eric Dickerson is probably the only guy hating the Packers D more than me right now.

[esoxx]

hmmmm...........didn't somebody say AP would be kept to under 100 ?

yes, homerism was talking, not common sense.

[Bretsky]

Gotta say it........when MN play actions.......does anybody else feel relieved ????

[Packers4Glory]

come on Hayward!

[red]

almost an INT

damn

[pittstang5]

Damn, NEEDED that Pick!

[esoxx]

39 yards to pass Barry Sanders

[Bretsky]

Gotta say it........when MN play actions.......does anybody else feel relieved ????

Second and a short five

Pass and another pass..............equals Punt

TY Minnesota !

[Packers4Glory]

ok..this Ross is a baller.

[ThunderDan]

Wow another tough return by Ross. Making a statement to stay on the active roster for the playoffs!

[pbmax]

Condom free zone!

Cover 0. :lol:

[pittstang5]

Wow, Ross made something out of absolutely nothing. STILL, Why are guys slipping. That should have been fixed after the first series!!!!

[red]

Gotta say it........when MN play actions.......does anybody else feel relieved ????

take the ball out of the hands of their only weapon

i love it when they throw

[esoxx]

hmmmm...........didn't somebody say AP would be kept to under 100 ?

My other prediction remains alive however. Ragnar gets a Dirty Sanchez

[Packers4Glory]

I've already got a lot of confidence in Ross. He seems to make good decisions so far back there and looks steady and explosive.

[pbmax]

Ok, I prayed and sacrificied achicken to the football Gods during half time. Looks like it hasn't helped the Defense.

Raw, grilled or deep fried?

[pittstang5]

I'll take it!

[red]

not much of a shove to be honest

[ThunderDan]

My son got a Mathews jersey for XMas. So its ARod jersy when pack on O. Matthews jersey when pack on D.

[pittstang5]

Raw, grilled or deep fried?

RAW, baby, raw

[Guiness]

He did not let up at all, he deserved that.

Despite what that moron with the microphone is saying right now.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Nice screen.

[ThunderDan]

Great job waiting for the O-line to make the blocks on the screen.

[red]

so

harris is our featured back for the playoffs, right?

i think grants only had 1 or 2 carries today

[red]

look at that little guy go

[pittstang5]

Nice running by Harris, real nice!

[ThunderDan]

so

harris is our featured back for the playoffs, right?

i think grants only had 1 or 2 carries today

I think that is true!

[pittstang5]

FUCK!!!!

[pittstang5]

Drive Killer!

[Guiness]

I absolutely love the way Harris is running.\

Has Grant been given the ball other than that early run?

[ThunderDan]

Incomplete!

[pittstang5]

Arm was going forward!

[red]

jeeze, thank barclay might have been held at some point without it being called? torn jersey is a dead give away

his hand was going forward, incomplete pass

[ThunderDan]

Incomplete!

Nope fumble.

[pittstang5]

We're fucked!

[red]

piss, its a fumble

shoot ourselves in the dick again

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Rodgers has to learn to get out of that pocket faster!

[Cheesehead Craig]

Arm wasn't going forward when the ball came out, fumble.

[Packers4Glory]

just can't stop being their own worst enemy. dumb penalties and then that.

[pbmax]

Well, that was some nice momentum for a while

[pittstang5]

Replay showed open hand, we are royally screwed today!

[pittstang5]

Gotta hold them, I have no faith though. We'll be down 10 again

[red]

come on d

[gbgary]

time for a minn turnover.

[Rutnstrut]

Well, that was some nice momentum for a while

It was, but we can't have it be easy.

[pbmax]

nice push off by Vike receiver.

[pittstang5]

FUCKING CHRIST! Ponder is making this look easy!

[ThunderDan]

Nice push to create space by the WR.

[pittstang5]

Pathetic

[Packers4Glory]

come on Raji that's embarrassing...AP's shredding you guys so don't pull than no no finger BS.
