Official Packers -vs- Vikings game thread

[Bretsky]

Sorry, B. A few beers in here

That was a great game. I'm really happy right now. I was a little worried because I really didn't know.

Also, the old ass farts that used to pack Lambeau to see one last run from the old guy seem to be gone!!! The stadium was packed iwth noise. Really, that was an even game with Rodgers being the best Packer and Peterson being the best Viking. The crowd made the difference.


GO PACK!!!

no biggie at all

Go Pack

Shit play to end the game.....Great game by Green Bay. Congrats on the win. I thought Rodgers looked just fine.

Solid and unspectacular play by our QB should win a division IMO

The Vikings are a QB away from being a NFC championship contender IMO

Bretsky, surely you don't mean that Rodgers was "unspectacular" tonight? he made some damn fine throws. Better than "solid."

Bretsky needs simultaneous translations for his posts and drunk viewers!

Anyone still here watching the Oak-Denver game?

Dante Hall is hurting his team something fierce. Unnecessary roughness penalties on back to back plays. Both times taking a shot at the WR after the play was over...

what's up with jamarcus russell's love-handle protection?

I feel good about the game for many reasons, most that are not with Rodgers. There were a lot of "areas of concern" that we thought we had or may still have but tonight answered a lot of those questions. Rodgers played simple, he made the throws a pro QB is supposed to make and made the TD pass that very good QB's make. Thats a huge start for him in his career but like all the good ones, its longevity and consistency that I want outta him and hopefully that happens.. also I hope he learns to shed some hits every once in awhile.. he seems to take some shots he doesn't have to after the ball is released

Considering it was his first start ever, national stage, hated rival, off-season controversy right behind him, big expectations/pressures, the kid did well. It's a good start in a tough spot and that can't be taken away from him. The good news about any mistakes is I think this kid will get better with more experience, assuming health, and will improve things like escapability. It's a process, but a good start AR! Congrats.

I think I mis-worded my opening sentence. I meant I was more worried about other areas of our team than Arod tonight. Mostly cuz of injuries. I figured Arod would get a simple gameplan to just not lose the game. He made the plays that he was given to make, and thats pretty much what you want from any QB... I just wanted to make that clear because I dont think I did the first time..

The defense sure is a lot better with Pickett and Hawk in the game.
