Official Packers vs. Vikings Game Day Thread: Border Battle

[George Cumby]

After last year's opener, I was ready to burn the house down.

I figured this would be that same type of sloppy, crummy game. IMO, MLF treats this like the final preseason game.

We will see what happens next.

Happy Birthday, Ras!

We didn't have our starting tackles and Hunter and Z made us pay.

Yep. Zadarius put Hanson on skates for his sack. Newman gave one up too.
Rodgers was uncomfortable in the pocket and without the Adams security blanket. He threw into double coverage to Tonyan on the 4th down...

Meanwhile, Justin Jefferson had his way with the vaunted secondary. 9 catches on 11 targets is pretty good catch %.

All that said, I think Packers are the better team that they showed today. With Lazard, Bahk, and Jenkins back and development of the youngsters should be much improved by mid-October. It's one game, the NFCN isn't out of reach. Not happy about the loss at all -- especially to the Vikings -- but I'm not going to overreact.

What was the tl;dr of this game? I missed it but ooof the box score is awful.

[call_me_ishmael]

Man Jefferson is something.

This was so obvious at LSU. I cannot believe we didn't move up to get him. What a bad move by us.

[Bretsky]

appears we signed the wrong WR in free agency

[call_me_ishmael]

Julio making plays tonight fo shiz. On the other hand, would Rod throw him the ball?

[Bretsky]

Jones stretches the field even if he doesn't get the volume catches. It would stretch the field for Jones and Dillon IMO

well, the lizard isn't a #1 or even a #2, so don't expect huge leaps when he comes back

and we might not be getting bahk back. after 2 years, if he still isn't comfortable on it after two years, it might be time to hang it up. it might not get any better then it is now. he may come back for one game again just like last year, only to go right back on IR. that knee is fucked

we have a lot of talent on D, but joe barry might be starting to show his true form. hes been really bad when hes done this job in the past

little matty flower might learn the hard way why you don't just hire your good buddies

[call_me_ishmael]

Joe, Banjo Man, do your thang.

[JABF]

Btw, the new Bears fan poster keeps giving me negative ratings. What is up with that?

Yikes! I didn't realize I did that. Sorry... just an old fart hitting the wrong buttons. I sure didn't mean to do that at all. Us Bears fans are not the sharpest knives in the drawer

[Bretsky]

i think i'd done going to lambeau. the last few games i went to my back ended up completely fucked from those bleachers

pussy

Let's go! Never have I started a Game Day Thread so hopefully it works!

You sucked.
