Monday Night Football: Vikings vs. Patriots

[gbpackfan]

Hey gents,

Didnt see a monday night thread, so I though I'd fire one up. Vikes D came out flat, Pats up by 7 early. Plenty of time left.

vaunted Viking D looked awful porous on that drive...

You beat me to the thread by one minute. Anyway, I'll repost what I said in my initial post here, and forget that travesty of a thread ever existed.

For the record, holy goodness did Tom Brady make a good Vikings defense look bad on that first drive. The man had forever and a day despite 7 people in coverage on pretty much every play. I was looking forward to a good defensive struggle, but the Vikings are going to have to not play like the Packers early in this season for that to pan out.

Is it just me, or is having a player "introduce" their team-mates fucking annoying. They just blather on and on and never really introduce anyone.

The cheesy nick names annoy me the most...

[lord favre]

yeah, good thing you guys got rid of Sharper.

I agree about the introductions. I wish they could have kept the old format so I could have the pleasure of hearing our WLB introduce himself as "A.J. Hawk, Ohio State" without the stupid superfluous article.

It's also priceless how the announcers spend the whole drive talking about how great a decision maker Johnson is and how he's under appreciated (not saying he isn't) but then he finishes the drive with a Favre-like red zone interception.

Wasn't really favre like, Johnson looked right at him, favre just blindly tosses em up.

Go Pats!!

If GB wins in Buffalo, I think they're going to surprise people how well they play the Vikings.

The two teams are very similiar in my opinion. I think as you'll see tonight though, a good quarterback can pick them apart. Notice Brady is back in the shotgun a significant amount of the time.

If you guys wanna crown 'em, go ahead and crown 'em, but they are who I think they are and I think we have a much better chance than any expert will tell you.

Tony Kornholer has a man crush on Brady as bad as Madden does for Favre

I wonder who the 49ers thought they were?

Is this game over? The Vikings have really shown me very little tonight.
