Official Packers @ Vikings Game Thread

[MadtownPacker]

Well it's 7am on the West coast. Head is kinda pounding after drink a gang of Sauza last night. Figured I would get some practice for the posters game next weekend. Really looking forward to it but...

Looking past this week is a bad idea. Historically both teams have had close games where it didnt matter who was the favorite, who had the better record, and where the game was at. This might be the toughest game of the first half of the season. The vikings are not better then the eagles or Chargers and maybe even the giants but they are a NFC North rival who would love nothing more then to run the fun us Packer backers have been having the last few weeks.

Luckily for us they have several bigmouth players and a head coach who is more creative when it comes to finding new ways to put his foot in his mouth then running a NFL offense. They have given the Green & Gold several reminders there is a game today and that they think they can hang with the Packers.

All I can say is this, when people keep talk smack they usually end up getting punched in the mouth. Let's come out swinging!!

[Rastak]

Well Mad and the rest...good luck today (but not too much).

[Bretsky]

Well Mad and the rest...good luck today (but not too much).

Ready for a record to be broken Rastak ? :wink:

[GBRulz]

Ras, are you going to the game? Can you get a pic of Favre throwing #421 and Sharper being left in the dust? k thanks

A shot of Longwell missing a 40 yarder would be a nice pic, too :twisted:

[Rastak]

Yea, I'm heading out now. Enjoy the game.....Pack 9 Vikings 10....that's my revised pick!



See ya later!

[GBRulz]

Have fun, Ras! I know secretly, you are wearing a Favre jersey underneath all that purple !

[Tarlam!]

I am on board!!!

[MadtownPacker]

Really? I have always thought you where kinda on edge. :lol:

[Partial]

Let's get this done today Packers. The lady and I are going to go to a sports bar and get some lunch and watch a little bit of the game.

Go Pack!!! Go Silver Fox!!! 421 to DD! 422 to Bubba! Favre runs one in on a broken play! That's what I am looking for today!

Packers 27, Vikings 17

[Fosco33]

Let's Go PACK!

[RashanGary]

4-0

5 more wins and you can start punching playoff tickets.
6 more wins and you can start punching Lambeau playoff tickets

6 wins in 12 games. A good start can go a long way.

[mmmdk]

from nfl.com

Packers declared RB Brandon Jackson, DB Frank Walker, LB Desmond Bishop, DT Orrin Thompson, G Allen Barbre, DT Justin Harrell, DT Daniel Muir, and DE Mike Montgomery inactive for Week 4.

Greg Jennings is active for Green Bay. Vernand Morency is also up, and is likely to start against Minnesota.

[mmmdk]

My stomach is all topsy turvy - I'm REALLY worked up for this one.

If Packers play well then I won't be posting much as this game is live on Danish TV. Normally I watch game pass (outside US only I believe) on the PC and hence is close by but should the unforgiven happen that Vikes....nah I can't bring myself to utter the words.

GG to Packer fans all around the world - that means you too, Rastak, you closet Packer backer 8-)

[4and12to12and4]

I am scared as to whether or not I'm getting the game on the NFL Ticket today. I live in Highland, IN, Chicagoland in terms of TV News, Networks, etc. Until this week, the NFL Ticket has blacked out the Pack here, but that's cuz they've been on Fox here, because the Bears haven't played at the same time. The whole reason I purchased it was for weeks like this where Fox will play the Bears game, leaving me unable to watch the Pack, so, the NFL Ticket better give me the game!!

[Bossman641]

Maybe someone can help me out. Is there anyways to stream the game? I normally just go to a bar and watch but I can't do that today. Thanks.

[4and12to12and4]

Maybe someone can help me out. Is there anyways to stream the game? I normally just go to a bar and watch but I can't do that today. Thanks.

Is Patler or Pack4to84 around? They'd know. I think you have to go to NFL.com and purchase a package and watch that way. You may be able to buy the "season" and have a week or two to cancel if you don't like it, a free way to watch one game, if that's all you need.

[Bretsky]

It would not surprise me if Green Bay Loses; there is always the helldome curse and if we turn the ball over this game can go either way

[4and12to12and4]

I don't usually post while watching, but if the NFL Ticket blacks me out because I'm considered in the "region" (even though I'm in Indiana), I'll be posting through the game, but, hey, where the hell is everybody? Out getting pizza and beer? Or do we have a lot of churchgoers here?

[GrnBay007]

[RashanGary]

Something that I think would be interesting is having KGB as a LB on an obvious passing down.

Jenkins/Williams/Jolly/Kampman as the down 4

KGB lined up outside Jenkins, either on a TE or on a FB. Worse case is they send a TE and a FB to take KGB and everyone else gets 1 on 1. Best case is KGB shreds a TE and forces a fumble or gets a sack.

So, are you suggesting four backers and only three db's? What good does that do? Are we really scared of their tight ends or something? Hawk, Poppinga, and Barnett obviously aren't coming out.

I can see if you only have two or three downlineman, but, I don't like that, no pressure.

[RashanGary]

You take out Poppinga and line up KGB as an obvious pass rusher. You don't even mask it, you just tell them to stop him with a TE or FB if they can.

[MadtownPacker]

The last time I recall them doing that KGB could have had an easy pick but dropped the ball.

[RashanGary]

Here we go!!

This game is all about stopping Peterson.

[Bretsky]

Here we go!!

This game is all about stopping Peterson.

Strange that they are not starting him; he's looked like a dominating tailback.
Something Taylor will never be

[Bretsky]

Gosh we sure are lucky MN doesn't have a competent QB

Jarrett Bush was beat deep bad there by Sydney Rice; he was beaten by Rice twice that series, but Rice could not come down with the first ball

[RashanGary]

Yup, they took their shots and missed. They had us beat but that is part of the game. We are lining up to stop the run and give the pass becuase we don't think Holcomb can beat us. So far so good but that is a bit concerning.

[4and12to12and4]

On ESPN they actually said Peterson wouldnt start because they didn't want him to get the shit beat out of him this early in the season. Talk about being scared of a hard hitting defense.

30 other QB's, and it's 7-0. That was a joke.

[Bretsky]

Darren Frickin Sharper

[Bretsky]

THE MOST OVERRATED UNIT IN THE NFL IS THE BALTIMORE DEFENSE

Cleveland just marched down on them like they were high schoolers

[4and12to12and4]

Wow, the gods must want us to win this one.

[motife]

I hope Favre's not pulling another "Michael Strahan" deal with Darren Sharper.

[Fosco33]

Brett saw that flag and heaved it up - it wasn't the other way around.

I hate that stupid horn.

[]{ilr]3]

Looked like either the pressure for Favre or a bad route by Jennings.

Glad it was called back.

Think Favre knew that one was coming back?

[Bretsky]

The Queen defense is very very good

[RashanGary]

Jennings had Sharper TOASTED but brett had pressure and threw a bad ball. DAMN!!

What goes around comes around I guess.

[motife]

GREAT play by Kampman..

[Bretsky]

Dang, Peterson looks like he has some Erick Dickerson in him

[Brandon494]

anyone know where I can listen to the game?

[Bretsky]

TD

And I have the Packers D !!

[OS PA]

http://ktlkfm.com/cc-common/streaming_new/index.html?refreshed=yes

It's a queens broadcast, but not much bias so far.

[Fosco33]

Damnit

[Bretsky]

TD

And I have the Packers D !!


DAMMIT !!!!!!

[Bossman641]

Who had the pick?

[Bretsky]

ANOTHER BIG PLAY BY THE D !!

[]{ilr]3]

Hot damn! No flag on that turn over!

[Fosco33]

There you go Jolly! Nice wheels - I would've screamed if you didn't jump on that fumble. Got it back!!!

[Bretsky]

Who had the pick?

Woodsen

[gex]

YEA!!! now that one counts

[MadtownPacker]

Hahaha!! He is making the highlight reel.

[Bretsky]

Fumble and decent return by the Jollytrain

[Harlan Huckleby]

i think we want Jolly to just fall on that ball.

but alls well that ends welll.

[GrnBay007]

LOL I didn't know if Jolly was going to be able to bend over far enough to pick that ball up! WTG!!!

[4and12to12and4]

Wow, Bigby just PUNCHED that ball out.

[Packnut]

It seem's we've come out flat. I hope this turnover gives us a spark.

[OS PA]

http://www.atdhe.fr/10.html



Here is the game if you want to watch.

[Fosco33]

Great pass/catch to Lee.

[Bretsky]

Browns up 14 over Cleveland

[Bretsky]

GREG JENNINGS

HUGE TD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!

[Harlan Huckleby]

the rout is on.

This is not gonna be a close game.

[GrnBay007]

Wow, awesome. makes ya want to cry.

[gex]

421 Greg Jennings!!

[Fosco33]

My man-crush on Favre is now officially man-love. he can have sex with my girlfriend.

NICE!!! 8-)

[Bretsky]

KIND OF IRONIC THAT RASTAK IS THE ONLY ONE WITNESSING FAVRE'S RECORD

[GrnBay007]

Awwwe.....and he goes over and kisses his wife!!!!

[Harlan Huckleby]

When you watch Adrian Peterson, it makes you realize how pathetic our four munchkins are.

Packers would be the cream of NFC with Peterson.

[Packnut]

As the song says "nobody does it better".

[]{ilr]3]

That just has to chap vikings fans ass to stop the game for that!

Be interesting to here what rastak and others have to say about how it all went

[Bretsky]

Awwwe.....and he goes over and kisses his wife!!!!


SHE'S HOT

[Harlan Huckleby]

Awwwe.....and he goes over and kisses his wife!!!!
I forgive him this indiscretion.

[mmmdk]

Wow, awesome. makes ya want to cry.

I agree - this is huge. Congrat to Favre; now get win # 151 too - that's what really counts.

:pack:

[Brandon494]

http://www.atdhe.fr/10.html



Here is the game if you want to watch.

thanks! :D

[Bretsky]

I'm liking Bush less and less every week

[OS PA]

http://www.atdhe.fr/10.html



Here is the game if you want to watch.

thanks! :D

Not working anymore for me.. it was barely working before anyways.

[GrnBay007]

I love Kampman!

[]{ilr]3]

Bush needs to be benched!

[Packnut]

C'mon get Bush outta there.

[Packers4Glory]

C'mon get Bush outta there..

what is he doing.

[mmmdk]

Kampman gets huge sack then they play prevent????

[Brohm]

Frank Walker inactive today?

[Harlan Huckleby]

C'mon get Bush outta there.


ah, a year will go by quickly, not worth the trouble.

[MadtownPacker]

I'm liking Bush less and less every weekNever thought Id hear you say that.

[Tony Oday]

Bush needs to get some saftey help.

[Packnut]

The weakest link of our defense is once again the coaching staff. Vanilla predictable defense. Our nickel back continues to be our achilles heal. It's freakin pathetic

[Joemailman]

They'll need to make some adjustments to get Bush some help with Rice.

[MadtownPacker]

Bush is screwing up!! He is playing way off the WR. Letting some rookie toast the D.

[Bretsky]

C'mon get Bush outta there..

what is he doing.


It just seems like his man beats him on every play

[Packers4Glory]

C'mon get Bush outta there..

what is he doing.


It just seems like his man beats him on every play

i fear williamson getting matched on him.

[Bretsky]

C'mon get Bush outta there..

what is he doing.


It just seems like his man beats him on every play

i fear williamson getting matched on him.


Sydney Rice looks like he might be their best WR; he had Bush beat by over five yards deep in the first series but Holcombe overthrew him

[Joemailman]

C'mon get Bush outta there.


ah, a year will go by quickly, not worth the trouble.

No politics in the Game Thread please.

[Bretsky]

THAT IS WHY WE DON'T RUN THE BALL MUCH

[gex]

Why run inside?

[Joemailman]

Great play by Bush! :P

[Packers4Glory]

nice to see Bush do something good there for a change today.

i need to see that play they overthrew rice...he had to bite on a fake or something to let Rice get that far ahead of him...right.................... :?:

[Harlan Huckleby]

Why run inside?

ya, they aren't gone move out those tackles.

But our running backs are so weak.

[Bub]

still doesn't make up for giving up those catches.

Thanks for that Queens audio link...so far so good. Stuck with 'boys and Rams here in Socal.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Kelly Holcomb is pretty bad.

I think the packers willl win by three touchdowns.

[Packers4Glory]

geez bush can't cover, and our 2 starters can't play w/o getting nailed w/ Carroll type penalties

[]{ilr]3]

Worst call ever!

Should have been a flag on Minn atleast for that bullshit of throwing the ball away

[Bretsky]

I think I'd give AP the ball 40 times a game

[]{ilr]3]

Did the defense not eat its wheaties this morning to something? They are getting pushed around and except for Kampmann look really slow.

Penalties are all over.

[mmmdk]

I think I'd give AP the ball 40 times a game

I would too; AP is a budding superstar.

[]{ilr]3]

Guess i complained too soon. Nice stop there by batting the ball down 8-)

[RashanGary]

I'm liking Bush less and less every week

I never thought I'd see the day where this comes out of your mouth. You are no longer allowed to hang out with blue dog.

[mmmdk]

{ilr]3]Guess i complained too soon. Nice stop there by batting the ball down 8-)

Now let's get a long drive with point. Wuhuu!

[Joemailman]

Refs are calling it close on the DB's. Chuck and Al will have to adjust.

[Bub]

seems like our D bending a bit...and shuting them down when they get into our turf. Sort of like the other games this year. The D doesn't look dominant by any means, but they are getting the job done, so far.

[GrnBay007]

Nice 1 to Martin!

[Bretsky]

what a great pass; he's playing at a very high level this year

[GrnBay007]

what a great pass; he's playing at a very high level this year

Yep, he seems so much more focussed then the last couple years.

[Bub]

Doesn't Favre get the attempt record at 10 attempts?

[Brandon494]

damnit

[GrnBay007]

Great play by Lee
....until he lost the ball :(

[Bretsky]

Nice pass; Lee got out toughed

I hate that horn

No turnovers in Packer territory; key to the game because I don't think MN is going to score much

[]{ilr]3]

Nice strip by the Vikings. Sucks. We were rolling on that drive.

Smith on the strip

[Harlan Huckleby]

ahh, good strip by Vikings - altho I thought his knee was down.

All the Vikings have his Adrian Peterson.

[footballfever]

he might have been down, you have to challenge that one

[GrnBay007]

On the replay it shows his knee coming down on Sharper's leg.

[Bretsky]

Corey Williams hurt; maybe that gets JH into a uniform

[RashanGary]

he might have been down, you have to challenge that one

They just showed it. It was pretty clear that it was a fumble.

That's too bad that Williams is down. We might see Muir next week with Harrell's knee sprain.

[Packnut]

Damn, it was about to be 14-0 and game over. No excuse. Ya gotta hold onto the damn ball.

[]{ilr]3]

I am watching HD and replayed that to get who stripped the ball. His knees came down on sharper before the ball came out. If not for that he would have ben down.

They just comfimred that on Fox replay

[MadtownPacker]

No way they can say he was down by contact?

AP is a monster! Dude is the total package.

[DannoMac21]

Nick Collins is a bitch.

[Bretsky]

Partial was the guy pounding for GB to trade up to get AP.

AP looks like Eric Dickerson

[GrnBay007]

ugh, now collins is down

[Bretsky]

KEEP CHESTER IN !!

[Bub]

we better not get too confident here.

[Packers4Glory]

i am NOT looking forward to many more yrs of Peterson. geez.

[]{ilr]3]

Sick of all the missed tackles and players not cleaning up or moving to the ball.

[gex]

Bend dont break

[Bretsky]

Here comes a kick for automatic

[Harlan Huckleby]

turnover + 55 yard run and they only get 3 points . :P

[MadtownPacker]

Maybe Rouse will be a good solution for AP. Didnt he play him in college?

[RashanGary]

I'll bet AP isn't used to getting caught from behind. Too bad Collins is out. For some reason, Rouse doesn't give me a comfortable feeling.

[RashanGary]

turnover + 55 yard run and they only get 3 points . :P

haha, that is the bright side.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Dude is the total package.


leave it to you to notice his package.


I just wish the Packers had a runner HALF as quick & strong

[MadtownPacker]

turnover + 55 yard run and they only get 3 points . :PYeah, all that and they didnt capitalize on it. As long as the offense can keep moving the ball it should be OK.

[mmmdk]

I think this is one ugly game - it'll be crazy and a toss up who wins. Damn!

[footballfever]

I like Rouse in there, Collins hasn't been mister consistency and I thought Rouse had some gamebreaking ability...... This time of possesion is really gonna catch up with us, it already is. The defense can't stay on the field this long

[Bretsky]

CRAP

the way Collins was walking off it looks like a knee

Hopefully not a ACL

[Bub]

turnover + 55 yard run and they only get 3 points . :P

haha, that is the bright side.

the dark side is that they started deep in our territory

[GrnBay007]

OK Packers back on O. I want to see a DD TD!!! :clap:

[TravisWilliams23]

Vikings have doubled Packers time of possession. The D needs a couple 3 and outs or else it's going to be tough to win this one.

[GrnBay007]

Yuck, that didn't go well.

[footballfever]

CRAP

the way Collins was walking off it looks like a knee

Hopefully not a ACL

everyone becomes a doctor when one of our players goes down. Why even speculate on ACL or PCL or MCL injuries, just let it play out

[Packers4Glory]

when Did Carroll get resigned?

[]{ilr]3]

Our D needs to wake up,. How can a worthless turd like Wade be making us look like the Lions D :shock:

[mmmdk]

Vikings are fired up; ever since the record TD Packers have been lethargic.

[Bretsky]

CRAP

the way Collins was walking off it looks like a knee

Hopefully not a ACL

everyone becomes a doctor when one of our players goes down. Why even speculate on ACL or PCL or MCL injuries, just let it play out

Everybody becomes a football wanna be expert in here leading up to each game; why predict what's going to happen in a football week when we can just let it play out ? :wink:

[footballfever]

coverage was fine on that pass to wade

[gex]

Again bend but dont break.

[footballfever]

CRAP

well said sir, thanks for the trade in our D2 league by the way. TO for Jordan and Jackson was it?

[GrnBay007]

This is looking kinda ugly. We need halftime now. Packers need to clear their heads.

[footballfever]

Rouse just layed the lumber on him on that play! helluva hit

[Harlan Huckleby]

they won't beat Favre with field goals

[Fosco33]

Why accept that penalty and give them another shot at a FD? Longwell would make it either way...

[]{ilr]3]

Our D is making Wade look like a fucking superstar!

Looks like the football player wanna be finally tried to make a catch up the middle and got hit pretty hard and he limped his ass off the field.

[GrnBay007]

OT - Bears are winning 7-3. YUCK!!

[mmmdk]

they won't beat Favre with field goals

Hmm!

[Harlan Huckleby]

I like Rouse in there, Collins hasn't been mister consistency and I thought Rouse had some gamebreaking ability......


agreed, sorta

[RashanGary]

Poppinga killed Holcomb on that deep throw. I'll bet Holcomb is seeing stars. I just hope he doesn't get his head clear at the half. It always helps to be playing a dizzy QB.

[Bretsky]

Yes, that was a fun deal; I wish we were not playing though because I think you will benefit from the deal this week more than I would. But long term it was a deal I needed to make. Trading is always fun. I hope we have the two high scores this week; hopefully I have one more point though :)

Cheers,
B

[Harlan Huckleby]

Why accept that penalty and give them another shot at a FD? Longwell would make it either way...

no respect for holcomb

[mmmdk]

they won't beat Favre with field goals

Hmm!

I'd like the rest of the Pack team to be on Favre's level.

[]{ilr]3]

This is looking kinda ugly. We need halftime now. Packers need to clear their heads.

Lets hope that MM can make somemore magic HT adjustments to wrap this game up and prove once and for all that Childress is a mental midget :P

[MadtownPacker]

Why accept that penalty and give them another shot at a FD? Longwell would make it either way...Thats what I was wondering. Maybe they thought the purps woudl go for it?

[Brando19]

The offense has gotta keep our defense off the field some more!

[GrnBay007]

The offense has gotta keep our defense off the field some more!

Who woulda thought that the last couple weeks?

[Bub]

we really need some help with our return game. No threat of long runs. When is Blackmon comming back? What about getting Bodiford in there on some punts?

[Brando19]

Moving the ball nicely

[]{ilr]3]

Nice effort there by bubba. To bad it didnt produce

[GrnBay007]

Nice Bubba!! Needed that

[]{ilr]3]

And Bubba comes back with 10y and a 1st

Nice one!

[GrnBay007]

TD right before half!!! Let's go DD!!!

[Brando19]

MORENCY!!! Good run

[Fosco33]

Playclock never ran on the screen - like 8 seconds should've been to 31 not 27.

[]{ilr]3]

Broken up pass play by Winfield. Almost an INT

[Brando19]

DRIVER INSIDE THE 10

[GrnBay007]

C'MON PACKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 11 SECS.

[Brando19]

Gotta pass in the red zone here

[Fosco33]

man, Driver can really hold onto that ball. too bad Lee couldn't do the same else Pack would be up 3 or 7 more earlier.

[]{ilr]3]

Sack -5 yards Robinson

[Brando19]

Field goal comin here

[Bretsky]

Crap; we didn't need that; gotta kick now

[Brando19]

It's good....10-6 at the half

[GrnBay007]

Well, 10-6 halftime. Sure hope they come back after half and put this game away quickly.

[Packnut]

Outstanding play by Favre not to risk it. Way more important to just get points and take a little slice of that Big Mo back.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Outstanding play by Favre not to risk it. Way more important to just get points and take a little slice of that Big Mo back.
I don't know. He could have chucked it out of the endzone, leave time for another pass.

[Fosco33]

Disappointing half -- mistakes, missed opportunities and lots of big plays given up on Defense. Good thing we have the lead and get the ball to start the 2nd half.

We need a running game more than a crack head needs an 8ball.

[PackerBlues]

Get ready for the second half adjustments. Its gonna be a slaughter!!! :twisted: (I hope :lol: )

[Brando19]

Any word on Collins? Will he return to the game after his x rays?

[Joemailman]

Nobody's had a running game against these guys. Defense needs to suck it up in the 2nd half.

[PackerBlues]

I hate commercials!!! :evil:

[]{ilr]3]

AP is such a huge player maker for the vikings. I need to stop thinking about it, because it just pisses me off that TT did nothing of value to help our running game.

I am not trying to start a TT bashing thread, because i love the picks he has made at WR. But damn, thinking about Harrell for our st round pick instead of trading up for Lynch looks like a Mike Sherman type of draft mistake

[footballfever]

Our halftime adjustments have been great so far, this'll be a close one but we should have it. Take away AP in the second half and man up the DB's, let Holcomb try to beat us

[Brando19]

{ilr]3]AP is such a huge player maker for the vikings. I need to stop thinking about it, because it just pisses me off that TT did nothing of value to help our running game.

We need a running game more than a crack head needs an 8ball.

I agree; but Packer run game won't come tonight. If Packers D can't stop AP then this game goes to the wire 'cos Vikings D is for real and are inches from creating a turnover. Actually I expect Vikings D to create a turnover in the second half, not because Favre will play badly but without a run game Packers are one dimensional.

Favre's gotta hit the slant to Driver & Jennings plus more success with screens to RBs - then Packers might get some positive runs.

Furthermore; get Ruvell Martin more involved - he can create a mismatch with their 4th DB guy.

COME ON PACKERS - LET'S ROLL. :pack:

[Brando19]

Man....the Browns are whipping the Ravens pretty good!

[PackerBlues]

Kampman is gonna put the Hurtin on Holcombe :twisted:

[gex]

WOW up the middle for the !st.

[Bub]

what? we ran for a first down?

[Brandon494]

Donald Lee needs to get his head into the game.

[Brandon494]

Donald Lee needs to get his head into the game.

thats what Im talking about! :P

[GrnBay007]

Donald Lee needs to get his head into the game.

thats what Im talking about! :P

OK, now wish for something for our running game!!! :P

[]{ilr]3]

Dang its hard for our WR to get any seperation from these LB's.

Damn, That drive is cut short. Was looking pretty good

[gex]

I was just thinking FAKE!!!

[]{ilr]3]

Holy Shit, Fake punt and a 1st 8-)

[Brandon494]

oh shit! hahahaha

[GrnBay007]

LOL too funny Go Ryan Go!!

[Lurker64]

Was that a called fake, or a busted play?

Anyway, kudos to Ryan for making the play.

[GrnBay007]

Longest rush of the day?? LOL that's sad.

[Fosco33]

Nominee for play of the day. There you go Canadian!

[GrnBay007]

Donald Lee needs to get his head into the game.

thats what Im talking about! :P

OK, now wish for something for our running game!!! :P

Brandon??? are u responsible for that fake? lol :wink: :P

CAlled, Ryan can really scramble

[Bretsky]

Nice catch by Ruvell; where is Ballhawk to boast ? Maybe he's hiding cause Lynch has looked pretty good :lol:

[Fosco33]

Can we win this without a running game and kicking FGs?

[footballfever]

9 minutes off the clock, the ONLY stat that matters on that drive, keep eatin up the clock boys

[gex]

Long drive, got points, now hope the defense is rested and fired up.

I told ya; get Ruvell into the game.

[RashanGary]

That was nice to rest our D and wear theirs out a little. We seem to be outlasting teams. WE can't do that without long drives though.

[Iron Mike]

They should put Ryan in at RB. :P

[Bretsky]

As long as we don't turn the ball over in our own territory I think we can

[Lurker64]

Well, that and the lead is now a touchdown. That's pretty important.

[Bub]

what the hell is going on in Cleveland? That is crazy

[Harlan Huckleby]

i still say the pack will win by 3 touchdowns

[Joemailman]

Tough winning on the road without a running game. We need the D to get a turnover before we can start to relax.

Ryan is our best bet in the backfield! :lol:

they can run Peterson between the 20's. that's all.

We need a momentum tipper - either a sack and defensive hold OR better yet a turnover! Come on D.

[Brandon494]

i still say the pack will win by 3 touchdowns

game is far from over

[Fosco33]

Last thing we need is Bigby out today...

[RashanGary]

I did not expect this game to be as close as it is. We're winning, but they are playing us even.

We should be able to outlast them with our depth, but Bigby and Collins getting knicked up doesn't help us much.

[Fosco33]

I love when teams blow timeouts in the 2nd half - on a 2nd and 10 no less.

[mmmdk]

No way but Packers win.

Hopefully they are just "knicks"

[mmmdk]

I think he's alright - any news on Collins?

[RashanGary]

They are definitly a better team without Jackson in. Minnesota would be a better team than us if they had a Brett Favre. Holcomb has made some good throws and stood in their taking big hits to keep drives alive. He missed just enough for us to have the lead though.

[mmmdk]

Getting killed up the middle; now by CT.

[]{ilr]3]

Why the fuck can they tackle AP. This is rediculous. Wrap up, hes not that big not that tough. This is a joke

[Bretsky]

Bad play by Barnett; Wist might be visiting soon

[]{ilr]3]

Whoa, Holcomb had all the time in the world and still was almost intercpeted

[Fosco33]

Saw Collins in on that play. Al Harris is sitting out now - hand injury - expected to return.

[GrnBay007]

LETS GO D!! GET A PICK!!!

[mmmdk]

Saw Collins in on that play. Al Harris is sitting out now - back spasms.

No, it's his finger(s).

[Lurker64]

Sure would be nice to see Longwell miss this one.

[Bretsky]

Longwell is money, just like the old days

[mmmdk]

Sure would be nice to see Longwell miss this one.

He won't - it's a dome!

[GrnBay007]

Wouldn't it be embarrassing if they beat us with only field goals? :shock:


...forget I mentioned that.
