OFFICIAL GREEN BAY PACKERS vs MINNESOTA VIKINGS PLAYOFF GAME DAY THREAD

[digitaldean]

with myself going through a cough/cold right now, it was hard to listen to

I hear ya. On amoxicillin now with a 2nd bout with sinus infection. Cant wait to get rid of this crud...

I don't know who was worse, Webb or Al Michaels. Boy, he's been great, but he's losing it.

A bad Al Michaels beats the metro queen Joe Buck and the egomaniac Aikman. With us having Sat night game we may avoid having those 2 clowns again.

So, how did everyone enjoy the bye week for the playoffs?

Got to see the team sharpen up with a 40 minute scrimmage.

It might be better to play the Niners in SF--depending on the weather.

Yep. Nicer weather and/or domes the rest of the way out sounds great to me

This is a classic Club vs Rapier game.
Rodgers & his receiving corp can move the ball quicker down the field and get points quicker than Peterson can.
If McCarthy commits from the start to the pass the Packers win. If he insists on spending the first half accepting constant 2 yard runs in the name of balance, I'm not confident.
If he's worried about the Viking pass rush, 3 step drop short routes, the occasional screen, and keeping a back and/or TE in to pass protect - even if that means 3 man routes - would be just fine.
I just hope the Packer offense doesn not spend too much time banging its head against the wall in the name of balance.

After we got our 3 score lead MM sat on that with those crummy little 2 yard runs in the 3rd + 4th. I know he was trying to eat up the clock but you can't freaking go conservative with that shit, especially next week in SF.

Isn't this from some flick from the '70ties? Can't remember the name of the movie...can anyone help?

"Tora Tora Tora" = the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Note to pbmax

I like Brad Jones LESS than Red liked Jarrett Bush as a DB

Of all of the injuries on D this year the one that really hurt was losing Bishop for the season.

[Pugger]

Ja bestimmt.

Huh?

[Pugger]

When you think about it this game is great practice for the 49ers. Strong running game with running QB.

Of course SF's QB can actually pass the ball...

[Pugger]

Anyone rather see Cobb returning kicks and Ross Punts. I would

<---- Ross

[Pugger]

Throw it away! Will not cut it in San Fran.

I can understand him not wanting to turn it over. The way he can throw and the weapons he has he can convert these 3rd and longs but my fear is him getting hurt while some defender is trying to break him in two.

[Pugger]

That's probably one of the first times I haven't seen Driver smiling. It's gotta be killing him to not be on the field.

I'm afraid we kept DD one season too long.

[Pugger]

Hopefully facing Webb this week will help us when we face the 49ers next week.

Unfortunately the 49ers rookie QB can actually throw a football. I do hope we approach stopping Gore with the same intensity we did AP in this game.
