Predict the score: Vikings at Packers

Packers 23 Queens 17

T Jack has a final chance to lead MN down for the win and throws a crucial pick.

37-17 Packers. Close at the half, Packers pull away in the 3rd quarter.

Peterson will score a couple of TDs and gain nearly 200 yards, but the Vikings won't get out of double digits passing and will turn it over several times.

Grant will break loose for a long TD run and gain about 150 yards. Rodgers throws for 2 or 3 TDs and nearly 300 yards as the Vikings try unsuccessfully to stop the run.

So they can't stop the run or the pass?

Grant will have one long TD run, but will need nearly 30 carries to get the rest of his nearly 150 yards, as the Packers painstakingly stick to establishing the run. Rodgers only throws 18 or 20 passes, but completes a good percentage for big yardage and 2 or 3 TDs, as the Vikings stack up against the run. Is that more clear?

I think Peterson runs for a bunch against our bend-don't-break defense, but Jackson or whoever can't pass a lick and turns it over a few times.

I don't play Madden. I'm not sure what that comment meant.

I agree w/Campbell in that Jennings is gonna be the star of this game. 9 grabs, 187 yards, 2 tds and one of them coming late to secure a close victory. I'm gonna say 23-17.

Vikes 27
Pack 17

Sigh.

If Green Bay scores more than 24 points I'll be pleasantly suprised. The Vikings have a top tier defense in the league. Thier secondary is the only weakness, but they should have a good enough pass rush to compensate. You can't run against them. Grant will not have 150 yards, in fact I highly doubt he breaks 100. It's not going to be easy for him.

I'm going to predict 21-17 Green Bay.

In the "predict the Packers record" thread I stated that the Packers only loss of the season would come on MNF against the Vikings...but I just can't do it so I'm revising to a 16-0 record and a victory over the Queens.

Pack - 19

Vikings - 13

"Yes they can!"

Pack - 13
Queens - 10

AP runs for 140 and 2TD as MIN jumps out to a 21-3 halftime lead before Rodgers rallies the troops to 24-17 only to throw a pick 6 late in the 4Q.

MIN 31
GB 17

Sigh.

(I hope I'm wrong.)

Fred Cox kicks a 25 yard field goal for the game's only score. Fire Dan Devine!

[Spaulding]

Pack by 7 with a 24 to 17 victory sparked by a return by Blackmon returned for TD. A virtual "dagger" ala good old Wayne if you will.

MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

Vikings 20, Packers 10

I am such a glass half-empty kinda person but I LOVE BEING WRONG...at least for one week anyway.

[boiga]

good call spaulding. Prescient even.

[Carolina_Packer]

bump...Swede and Bretsky should go out and buy a lottery ticket. They both predicted 23-20; off by one on both teams!
