Official Vikings Packers Gameday Thread

[Rastak]

Bring it on!

[jklowan]

another frustrating game that has us pulling our hair out and calling for changes...

Pack 13 Vikings 21

[gbgary]

as it sits right now (i believe) if the Packers win we get min again, and if we lose we go to was. min gets sea at home. no?

all this due to sea blowing out ari.

I think that's right gbgary.

Seattle; holy smokes.........Washington looks good as well.

Who can we actually feel good about beating ?

IF GB loses tonight the answer is probably nobody

To be the best you need to beat the best. To be honest, it doesn't matter who you play...

[denverYooper]

Nice work on the thread Ras. You're a worthy opponent. Packers fans are spoiled babies.

I still hope we beat your team's ass.

[mraynrand]

Are not! Are not!!!!

To be the best you need to beat the best.

Untrue. Just get on the right side of the bracket and hope for upsets!

Best usually rise to the top. Sure, sometimes upsets render a unbalanced bracket but I don't see it in the NFC this year.

[pittstang5]

I've been optimistic all day about tonight, but then started watching the Seattle/Arizona game and was like - Oh shit...that could be us tonight (Meaning Packers = Cardinals and Vikings = Seahawks).

Now I'm not so sure.

I wanna a win, but at least we're in the playoffs. A chip and a chair...that's all we need.

[CaptainKickass]

Obligatory game day post.

So is it Tretter or Barclay at LT? Lane Taylor with be the backup G.

[pbmax]

Packer Report ‏@PackerReport 6m6 minutes ago
#Packers do not announce a replacement for Bakhtiari. Going to guess they take a shot with Tretter tonight.

Tom Silverstein ‏@TomSilverstein 6m6 minutes ago
If I had to guess, I would say the #Packers go with JC Tretter at LT instead of Don Barclay. Can't see them going with Barclay there again.

Michael Cohen ‏@Michael_Cohen13 6m6 minutes ago
Big loss for the #Packers to be without starting LT David Bakhtiari. Wonder if we see JC Tretter out there tonight.

The future is now with Tretter at Tackle. Walker is inactive. Mulumba gets to finish the season after polishing the aluminum all season long.

Close game, don't trust offense has figured it out.

Packers win 23-21. Forum begins to mess its pants about Seattle before bed.

[pbmax]

So is it Tretter or Barclay at LT? Lane Taylor with be the backup G.

If they put Barclay at LT, I hope Tolzien is at QB by the second drive. It is at home, which does help. Honestly, I could see it going either way. Tretter has practiced at LT before.

[Rastak]

Some of this hinges on the Vikings not freezing in the spotlight again.

Things are kind of setup with the GB injuries and frustration.

[Bretsky]

I really think GB wins tonight too; they know MN well and in general match up personnel wise well. And it will follow a pattern of good feelings and heartbreak. When in the dumps we get a ray of hope before our hearts get ripped out.

Point well taken.

Yep...makes a win for Minnesota tonight almost feel like a loss.

He played there before in a game?

[esoxx]

No sir.

[pbmax]

Sure, you all laughed when we said they should rest the injured instead of trying to win a game that only changes the venue of next weeks game.

Now Sitton (and his bad back and toe) is at LT.

I almost don't believe this.

@TomOatesWSJ Seahawks possible if they tie. Didn't include that earlier.


Do the Packers tie the Vikings ever? I think they have recently. Or was that the Lions?

Pack-Vikings tied when Rodgers was out with a bum collarbone.

I believe they tied in '13 when Rodgers was out hurt.

Sitton at left tackle and Barclay at left guard on that snap.

Tom Oates ‏@TomOatesWSJ 57s58 seconds ago
Looks like Josh Sitton to LT, w/ Lane Taylor at LG. Not a fan of weakening yourself at 2 positions, but #Packers can't allow 9 sacks again.

Yeah, I would have preferred Tretter.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

No optimism, just hopeful. On the plus side, if Aaron gets more than 5 fantasy points I win my family fantasy league with bragging rights over two brothers, two sons, a sister, a sister in law, and two nephews. I'm calling this a successful season.

@TomOatesWSJ @wisconsinsane Not in college, either. Not sure about high school or Pop Warner or on Madden.

[yetisnowman]

Do the Vikings wanna throw this game and get us in lambeau next week again, or win and get Seattle at home? I might be a bit conflicted there.

No question, win.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Bring it on!

You want a piece of me?

[Rutnstrut]

I don't think the Vikes will have a lot of trouble winning this one.

[Rastak]

I don't think the Vikes will have a lot of trouble winning this one.


NFL doesn't usually work that way.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Yeah, I would have preferred Tretter.

agreed. what a disturbing move.

[pbmax]

Back on LB Ryan.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Clay with a t-t-t-t-tackle!

[yetisnowman]

Ryan on McKinnon. Smart matchup

[pbmax]

Joe Thomas with first good play in a month.

[Rutnstrut]

NFL doesn't usually work that way.

I meant having motivation to win as opposed to "losing" to avoid Seattle.

[pittstang5]

OH Christ!

[Harlan Huckleby]

gotta give um credit - smart call

[pbmax]

Ran it against Backman, filling in for Perillo.

[Rastak]

41 on the fake, nice.

[yetisnowman]

Jesus

[red]

why the fuck was a TE in on defense?

why are we fucking with the one side of the ball that ISN't completely broken?

[Harlan Huckleby]

I hope MM's cap is insulated.

[Bretsky]

Fire Ron Zook ?

[Rutnstrut]

41 on the fake, nice.

That was a great play. I really like Thielen.

[red]

way to step up and make the thread in enemy territory ras

[pbmax]

why the fuck was a TE in on defense?

why are we fucking with the one side of the ball that ISN't completely broken?

What? That was punt coverage red. Unless you mean something else.

[pbmax]

Fire Ron Zook ?

Backman was contain and didn't see it. Hard to blame him in second game.

[Harlan Huckleby]

3 pts. pfffffff who gives an f

[Bretsky]

What? That was punt coverage red. Unless you mean something else.

he's already drunk........lol...........although.....

I don't mind his idea of trading our playoff spot and our 1st rounder for another teams 1st............LOL

[pbmax]

Vikes targeting RB and TEs on LBs. Plus attacking Randall.

[Rutnstrut]

Backman was contain and didn't see it. Hard to blame him in second game.

It was also a well executed play by Mn.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Is Lane Taylor really better than Tretter?

[pbmax]

he's already drunk........lol...........although.....

I don't mind his idea of trading our playoff spot and our 1st rounder for another teams 1st............LOL

That was actually MY idea I think. :lol:

[pbmax]

It was also a well executed play by Mn.

Yeah and I don't think they knew Backman was out there instead. but if they did based on injury reports during the week, kudos to them.

[Harlan Huckleby]

I think Sitton will be embarassed at LT

[gbgary]

nice job by the d.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Play 1: whiff by Sitton

[Bretsky]

Backman was contain and didn't see it. Hard to blame him in second game.

OK, I will blame TT then.........lol

[red]

i like how everyone is saying we're a run first team all of a sudden, including a-rod

its just proof that fat mike is spreading stupidity throughout the club

last week, 21 runs to 30ish passes called
2 weeks ago, 27 rushes to 40 passes called
3 weeks ago, 39 rushes to 40 passes called
4 weeks ago, 20 rushes to 40 passes called

how are we even close to being a run first team? we aren't even close to being a balanced team

the whole fucking organization is delusional

[pbmax]

nice job by the d.

Need some pass rush though.

[gbgary]

hesitate, skip, burst. had everything but the spin.

[red]

What? That was punt coverage red. Unless you mean something else.

ah, i was typing and didn't know it was a fake punt, i assumed it was a defensive brain fart

[gbgary]

sideways run fails as usual.

[red]

I think Sitton will be embarassed at LT
i absolutely HATE, shuffling the whole o-line around when one guy gets hurt. sure our backup tackles suck, but now we're weaker at 2 positions on the line, instead of just 1

[pittstang5]

3rd and short Achilles heal this year

[Harlan Huckleby]

go for it. this is a bowl game where loss is no killer

[pbmax]

Rodgers looks cold.

[gbgary]

Rodgers making faces like he's hurt.

[Bretsky]

LEGIT QUESTION

WHY

When it's 3rd and 3 and the defense is giving a WR seven yards....why not run three, stop, and take the pass. I notice this too much with GB, including the last play

[Harlan Huckleby]

Way to fight, fight fight Ed!

[Rutnstrut]

That's where a big bruiser back helps.

[pittstang5]

All Lacy...fuckin Christ

[Bretsky]

i absolutely HATE, shuffling the whole o-line around when one guy gets hurt. sure our backup tackles suck, but now we're weaker at 2 positions on the line, instead of just 1

LT protects QB's blind side; fine with doing it here.

[Guiness]

Wow that was not by much.

Sitton at LT. All kinds of interesting, just saw him do a pretty good kick step on the 3rd down just before the 4th down try.

[pbmax]

DickRod is the opposite of a Weeble.

[Bretsky]

we just may have to try to turn into a run first O with our WR's. Slow the game down..keep the score low....prevent offense......lol

[Guiness]

Starks plug. Carrying the ball. Holding onto the ball :-)

[Harlan Huckleby]

swivel hips jones

[Bretsky]

Kind of like Barry Alvarez when we played UCLA in the first Rose Bowl

[Rutnstrut]

Can't be stubby calling plays, they are running too much.

[Bretsky]

DID JAMES JONES JUST BREAK HIS FIRST TACKLE OF HE YEAR ?

[Rastak]

Yea, you guys are using some big sets.

[pbmax]

That QB boot to throw hasn't worked all year.

[Rutnstrut]

Nevermind, he's back.

[red]

Rodgers looks cold.

he has all season

[Bretsky]

2nd and 2....MM can't help himself and called the pass

[pittstang5]

3rd and short fail

[pbmax]

DID JAMES JONES JUST BREAK HIS FIRST TACKLE OF HE YEAR ?

Plus a juke.

[Bretsky]

That QB boot to throw hasn't worked all year.

it's like teams are waiting for it.

[Rutnstrut]

2nd and 2....MM can't help himself and called the pass

Yup, can't keep running it was working.

[gbgary]

a one yard pass on 3rd and 2.

[pbmax]

a one yard pass on 3rd and 2.

Yeah, that was a route fail.

[pbmax]

Why a line drive kick AT someone?

[pbmax]

Hold on Raji by Guard. Had him around waist for Pete's sake

[Guiness]

Chad Greenway still with the Vikings, and playing pretty well. Packers (Hawk), Lions (Sims) and Vikings and Lions all took LBs in the first round that year, he's the only one left.

[Rastak]

Chad Greenway still with the Vikings, and playing pretty well. Packers (Hawk), Lions (Sims) and Vikings and Lions all took LBs in the first round that year, he's the only one left.


Abdul Hodge has been gone awhile.

Bridgewater playing tight again.

[red]

Chad Greenway still with the Vikings, and playing pretty well. Packers (Hawk), Lions (Sims) and Vikings and Lions all took LBs in the first round that year, he's the only one left.

yeah, and that was called a very good LB class after the first year

[red]

why are all chicks in fast food commercials red heads now

not just the wendies chick but even the mcdonalds chicks

fucking gingers are taking over

[red]

dick rod looks even fatter and slower when he's all bundled up in the cold

[pbmax]

I liked Mike Sherman's offense better with his old O line.

[denverYooper]

dick rod looks even fatter and slower when he's all bundled up in the cold

Yeah. But at least he can catch.

Actually, most of A. Rodgers problem is probably waiting the 8 seconds for Jones or RRodgers to get sorta open.

[pbmax]

James Starks could beat a bank wall to get a first down.

[pbmax]

Stark Plug might have had a cut back lane there.

[Harlan Huckleby]

ugly

[red]

yuck

[Rastak]

Vikings have been getting some good preasure.

[pbmax]

JANIS!!

[pittstang5]

Damn, so close

[red]

its official, janis is the new bush

[Harlan Huckleby]

god, are Adams & Jones slow. They look like my dad during our Christmas snow games.

[Rutnstrut]

Janis is a modern day Steve tasker.

[yetisnowman]

Showing the route combinations of Adams, Cobb, and Jones. My word what the fuck is going on there.

[pbmax]

FOSCO is playing D line?

[pbmax]

FOSCO is playing D line?

I mean O line.

[red]

god, are Adams & Jones slow. They look like my dad during our Christmas snow games.

jones is old, he has an excuse

adams looks like he's just phoning it in

[pittstang5]

wide open! FUCK

[red]

wide open over the middle

talk about deja vu

[Rastak]

Wow, Wallace was open.

[Guiness]

That was some kind of a soft spot in the zone.

[pbmax]

Hayward falls down 8 yards behind the first down marker.

[red]

wooohoooo

we're already in the prevent defense

[pbmax]

jones is old, he has an excuse

adams looks like he's just phoning it in

He was trying to catch a CB in bail coverage. Jones had press.

[pbmax]

best Ryan tackle this year.

[Rastak]

best Ryan tackle this year.


Solid.

[pbmax]

Matthews will get no tackle but he caused the sack.

[pittstang5]

Peppers with the sack, assisted by Mathews

[Rutnstrut]

jones is old, he has an excuse

adams looks like he's just phoning it in

Yup Jones is understandable. Adams kind of reminds me of Randy Moss when he would quit on plays. Except Adams always quits.

[pbmax]

Solid.

Surprising, actually :)

[red]

cmIII and peppers sightings

time for chris to talk about the monster year peppers is having and how he still has "it" even at his age

:-|

[Harlan Huckleby]

I like this game. Two evenly matched teams.

[Rastak]

I like this game. Two evenly matched teams.


Honestly, they do seem to be.

[Rutnstrut]

I like this game. Two evenly matched teams.

I don't think Mn has been playing as shitty as GB, but they do look pretty evenly matched. I would give the coaching advantage to Mn though.

[pittstang5]

Good God! WTF

[pbmax]

Horrible screen. Should have dropped it.

[pbmax]

Eddie, just run straight ahead!

[Rastak]

To take Thunder's Thunder.......they missed a hold or two there.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Lacy moves well for a fat man.

[Teamcheez1]

The offense is absolute crap.

Rodgers looks mediocre again.

[pbmax]

First new snapper guy error.

[red]

yup, run first

means we run on first, throw the rest of the time

[pittstang5]

Losing Field position battle.

[pittstang5]

Good Lord! Wide open

[Teamcheez1]

Now the defense will begin to fold its tent.

[Harlan Huckleby]

dumb penalty

[pittstang5]

Great...it's gonna be in us (flag)

[Rutnstrut]

Clay taking cheap shots.

[pittstang5]

Stupid

[Rutnstrut]

Great...it's gonna be in us (flag)

It should be, Clay was sucker punching.

[yetisnowman]

I like this game. Two evenly matched teams.

Other than the fact the Vikings having some skill players that occasionally make notable plays, you are right.

[Teamcheez1]

No worries if the Vikings score. Our juggernaut offense already has 77 total yards.

[red]

oouch

[pittstang5]

Clay is gonna get a flag one of these days for jumping on a QB like that

[Rastak]

This is a real barnburner......

[yetisnowman]

Clay redeemed himself there.

[pbmax]

Well, that made up for the penalty.

[Guiness]

Wow I thought Mathews was going to draw another penalty on that sack. That's the most violent one I've seen in a while, leaving his feet and riding Bridgewater to the ground.

[Rastak]

Wow I thought Mathews was going to draw another penalty on that sack. That's the most violent one I've seen in a while, leaving his feet and riding Bridgewater to the ground.


He wanted a piggy back ride.

[pittstang5]

Adams with a nifty couple of moves

[Rutnstrut]

He wanted a piggy back ride.

It was uncalled for, he could have made a normal tackle without leaving his feet.

[pittstang5]

I wonder if Adams hurt himself on that play

[red]

weak call

[Rastak]

wtf was that?

[Harlan Huckleby]

It was uncalled for, he could have made a normal tackle without leaving his feet.

Nothing dirty about it. Not a vicious hit. CM is just following instincts, he;s a bit of a wild man. No biggie.

[pittstang5]

figures...

Fuckin Hurry up....hurry up and punt

[red]

10 million dollars

[Rastak]

Kendricks is quick.

[pbmax]

Those last two plays were well designed to get someone open early versus man coverage. Two good throws, one drop.

Then 2 yard throw on 3rd and 5.

[red]

does the back of the hand count as being down?

[Rastak]

does the back of the hand count as being down?


No idea.

[esoxx]

The ground can't cause a fumble.

[pbmax]

It was uncalled for, he could have made a normal tackle without leaving his feet.

And Teddy has a free arm to throw the ball. Matthews coming from his left. Jumped on him, he couldn't pass because Matthews threatened the ball.

[pbmax]

does the back of the hand count as being down?

I think it does. But I am not sure it was a catch.

[Rutnstrut]

If you are going to throw for 2 yards on 3rd and 5, you might as well run. Stubby is fucking worthless.

[red]

thats a fumble by definition

[red]

No idea.

i love the nfl, don't you?

[pittstang5]

Great....4th and 5, go for it

[Harlan Huckleby]

A long, low percentage pass there?

[pittstang5]

Yep...let's go deep!!

God, I hate this team

[pbmax]

Underthrown.

[Guiness]

Yup, can't keep running it was working.


Other than the fact the Vikings having some skill players that occasionally make notable plays, you are right.


Now the defense will begin to fold its tent.

*sigh*

[Teamcheez1]

This offense is complete garbage. 3 points in a half.

Rodgers has been crap the whole game.

[red]

great, james jones is our deep threat

at least we went for a high percentage play on 4th down

[Rutnstrut]

Piss poor throw.

[Bretsky]

SERIOUSLY.....4th and 5

WTF is MM DOING ???????????????????????????????????????

[Patler]

Rodgers misses another one.

[yetisnowman]

Another terrible deep throw by Aaron.

[Harlan Huckleby]

how many innings left in this game?

[pittstang5]

MM just gave Min. at least 3 points....7 methinks.

[red]

hey mike, this is exactly why you try and hold on to your timeouts and not waste them on worthless shit

pay attention

[pbmax]

Datone Jones hurt.

[Patler]

great, james jones is our deep threat

at least we went for a high percentage play on 4th down

Jones DID his job. All he needed was a half decent throw.

[pittstang5]

Neal hurt

[Bretsky]

at the rate we are scoring touchdowns we can't afford to go down by over 3. Seriously....why throw a 1 yard pass on 3rd and 5...and then...punt the dam ball

[Rutnstrut]

Another terrible deep throw by Aaron.

It's not his fault, it's his terrible line and receivers...

[pbmax]

that is why you jump and not just grab his jersey.

[pittstang5]

Neal hurt

Maybe it was jones

[pbmax]

It's not his fault, it's his terrible line and receivers...

Did you see James Jones make 2 moves to get open? Is that the route? Stop and Go, Stop and Go?

[pbmax]

Isn't the neck grab holding? :lol:

[Guiness]

That replay of Mathews getting a hand on Bridgewater - why was Mathews head coming around? Did the lineman have a handful of hair?

[Bretsky]

thx MN coaches

[red]

whew

hold on to your seats

105 total yards of offense for us in the first half

143 for minnie

real barn burner here

[pbmax]

Jones DID his job. All he needed was a half decent throw.

He needed to make two moves to get open. Not the called route.

[yetisnowman]

SERIOUSLY.....4th and 5

WTF is MM DOING ???????????????????????????????????????

The play was there. Our mvp qb can't execute a deep throw.

[pbmax]

That replay of Mathews getting a hand on Bridgewater - why was Mathews head coming around? Did the lineman have a handful of hair?

Kahlil had his arms around Matthews neck.

[pittstang5]

good lord, what a shitty game

[Harlan Huckleby]

whew

hold on to your seats

105 total yards of offense for us in the first half

143 for minnie

real barn burner here

a black and blue division slug fest. As in, our slugs against their slugs

[Teamcheez1]

What was the game plan on offense?

Apparently they don't have one.

[Harlan Huckleby]

good lord, what a shitty game

better than Arizona game.

baby steps

[Rastak]

good lord, what a shitty game


That is a very accurate analysis.

[Freak Out]

I know we have suffered through injuries etc on offense...but this is horrid.

[Joemailman]

The play was there. Our mvp qb can't execute a deep throw.

That throw was late. Jones was briefly open.

[Harlan Huckleby]

At some point, NBC may switch away to a rerun of "Heidi"

[Joemailman]

Maybe neither team wants to show anything on offense in case they play each other next week.

[yetisnowman]

great, james jones is our deep threat

at least we went for a high percentage play on 4th down

Honestly what is a high percentage play for this offense? A deep jumpball for JJ where he may catch or get PI called is as good as we got.

[Harlan Huckleby]

comment from Rodney HArrison, "Carolina is the best team, but Seattle is the most dangerous team."

huh. is it better to be good or dangerous?

[Fosco33]

Doesn't appear either team wants to win. And I can't blame them. Minny's best shot is us over Seattle. Ours is 50/50.

17pts in last 7 quarters.... And one TD. Yawn...

[Fosco33]

Fake punt and Cobb drop cost 6 pts.

[Strange Brew]

Maybe for a couple more million Cobb will start showing up for work.

[red]

At some point, NBC may switch away to a rerun of "Heidi"

and we now take you to a more competitive game

THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP OF BOWLING, QUARTER FINALS

[Fosco33]

Pack 1st half scoring at home:
'14 - 212 pts
'15 - 101 pts

[pbmax]

What was the game plan on offense?

Apparently they don't have one.

I thought it was to run run run. But then the second drive happened.

[yetisnowman]

That throw was late. Jones was briefly open.

Jones had separation and the throw was short, or if you want to say that where he was trying to throw but he threw it a second late....semantics. Either way a poor play by Aaron.

Doesn't appear either team wants to win. And I can't blame them. Minny's best shot is us over Seattle. Ours is 50/50.

17pts in last 7 quarters.... And one TD. Yawn...

so we're struggling against a team that is trying to lose?

oh good

[Rastak]

and we now take you to a more competitive game

THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP OF BOWLING, QUARTER FINALS




Sheeeeesh, quiet......and Earl Anthony is rubbing his ball........

Either way, it was still interference

It's like the two worst NBA teams playing for the first pick back before the lottery!

I thought it was to run run run. But then the second drive happened.

With Sitton at LT, you know they want to run

[red]

theres the run first, time to throw it around

[Rastak]

Hello......

[Rutnstrut]

Apparently stubby is pretty pleased with how things are going. If that in itself doesn't tell you he needs to go, you are truly a homer.

[red]

theres mike and a-rods big free play

and we blew it

that was our ace in the hole

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Do we ever throw past the first down marker anymore on thrid down? Our play calling sucks!

[pbmax]

Another directional punt.
