So is Stokes actually going to play this week?

Stokes in on IR.

It looks like the secondary will be down Stokes, Savage, and now Alexander.

I don’t see us slowing down Cousins even with Jefferson out.

I HATE the Vikings more than any other team, even the Bears. I also have a low opinion of Cousins. Just the same, this Packer team has been underperforming badly and with Barry still around, they probably will again. The Vikings rose up and played good last week. I doubt they do it again. I’ll give a shaky prediction of a Packer win- Love having a good game.

So he was off but now hurt his hammy? Lord....what a bust.

Maybe some good news on the injury front.

Jaire Alexander (back), Luke Musgrave (ankle) and Preston Smith (illness) were all back today after missing yesterday.

All 53 on the active roster appeared to be participating in some capacity two days before the Vikings game.

I think the Packers need to take a serious look at how they're dealing with injuries, especially hamstrings. Aaron Jones, Christian Watson and Stokes all seem to be having season-long hamstring issues.

LB De’Vondre Campbell (ankle), TE Luke Musgrave (ankle), and C Josh Myers (ankle)

Is ankle the new hamstring?

I too despise the Vikes. Probably the scars of my youth - watching Bud Grant's teams just beat the hell out of the Packers in the seventies.

With so many Packer defenders looking like they'll be out, and with Minny's defense blitzing all the time against an inexperienced GB QB, I just don't see how the Packers win this one. OR even come close, frankly.

But you never know, so I'll watch, at least some, I think.

The shorthand for many when picking the game is asking who has the better QB?
Right now, it's Cousins.

Cousins is a really good QB. The hate he gets is ridiculous.

[Rastak]

Cousins ain't top 5 but he's a very solid starting QB, better than most.

[King Friday]

Cousins gets hate because he eats up huge amounts of cap space and never wins you anything. I think most would admit he’s solidly in the second tier of starting QBs. He’s just never going to get to the first tier.
