Studs And Duds - Packers vs. Vikings

[woodbuck27]

stud - Hundley. He handled the situation well.

I can't dud the DBs too much, they were backups with a shifting lineup of backups.

Dud - God. That was fucking ridiculous. All that wrath against Packerland.

Teacher: Where is Green Bay (the place where the Packers play) Johnny?

Johnny: Wisconsin Teacher.

Teacher: What is Wisconsin Johnny?

Johnny: A USA State Teacher.

Teacher: That's right Johnny. Now Johnny... who is your Country's Leader?

Johnny: I'm not allowed to speak his name Teacher.

Teacher: That's good Johnny and I'm very sure...pleasing to God. I bet you don't live in Wisconsin Johnny.

Johnny : Ohh no Teacher..... Ohh No !

I just wanted him to get planted. legally.

It's one of those stages of grief things.....

[woodbuck27]

With Rodgers out we won't have to endure Aikman for a while. I will say his sidekick today was worse than Buck. I swear that guy is blind.

Yes Aaron's 'pseudo stalker?' will be asking for anything but Green Bay Packer games. Who was that (wanna be at announcing football) that was teamed with Troy Aikman today. Is it fair to say he left something to be desired?

I managed to see every Packer game so far this year.

(in fairness) ........... I believe a lot of that has to do with Rodgers STAR Power.

What stage are you at? I figured Viking fans were constantly in the bargaining stage...

Until today I was in the "We're fucked, the QB is up in the air and the best RB is out".....now it's like - see what happens!

The Vikings are trending upward.

You need luck at QB. That's just like every Top Tier NFL Team.

How so? Because they defeated a beat up team that lost their starting QB and leader? They do have a couple of easy games coming up but who among us thought KC would lose at home today or Atlanta would lose to Miami?

Yeah, no kidding. Football is so weird. Packers looked to have the whole thing coming back their way at the start of the game and then KABOOM it all gets blown to hell. Next thing you know, Hundley surprises everyone and turns into a season-long fuckdoggle extraordinaire and we're all like Hey, wha happened? ( I'm in the bargaining stage).

[Zool]

Didn't he have a second one, that he himself should have intercepted?

I think that was negated by a penalty.

[yetisnowman]

Studs.....yeah Martinez had a solid game. And Kenny Clark made a play. Other than that...
Duds
O-line. Look I know we are not at full strength, but Jesus give the young guy a little time.
Cobb, Jordy, Bennett, Montgomery. Our skill players were exposed as being mediocre at best. There is zero explosiveness, zero separation, little in the way of favorable matchups.
Hundley- he's a backup. But we've heard the coaches rave about him. It's the NFL you can't be inaccurate and make bad decisions.
MM-Not going for fourth and a foot at midfield. Terrible clock management on our final possesion. No need to keep the clock running.
Defense- You suck at tackling. You suck at creating pressure You suck at covering in space. Minus a couple turnovers, the Vikings B squad could have easily dropped 35 today.

This team is woefully untalented. Aaron makes it look easy by keeping us in the mix every year. But I just look at the team outside of him and see a bunch of guys. Nobody is game planning for them.

It was a lot of shoving way out of bounds near the ball carrier, but I never saw if the hit was or it was just beefing after the play was over.

Adams and Barr were elsewhere I believe.

It was in the background of one of the replays. Barr went up to Adams and put his helmet on Adams in a "macho" celebratory way. The penalty was completely warranted.

[Bossman641]

The whole training staff is a dud. Look i understand injuries happen but I watch a lot of games and announcers never go on and on about injuries the way they do for the packers game after game. At this point I'd rather have the strength and conditioning staff be led by Richard Simmons.

That is what I saw. What I don't remember his how OOB the actual tackle on the ball got.

On replay, I thought they could have thrown a flag on the extra shove out of bounds. Run real-speed (as slow-motion either makes things look better or worse), it looks a lot more border line.

[bobblehead]

dud- the turf?

dud- why does troy fucking aikmen have to cover every single one of our fucking games. no packer fan can stand the brain dead fuck, yet he's basically our very own team broadcaster

Don't worry. We won't be the national game of the week for awhile. Troy is boning up on the Eagles roster atm.
