Official Gameday Thread: ViQueens vs. Packers

[The Shadow]

This seems to be a defining game for the Packers.
It showed to the league- and even to themselves - what they are capable of.
Thank you, Ted Thompson, for the many 'disasters' so far in what appears to be a memorable season.

Kinda of weird, it seems the Packers might have screwed up their draft yet they kick ass. Very impressive.

Well, Jones is making a difference. Crosby and Hall haven't been bad pickups either.

I think that Thompson drafts more for "long term value" than "immediate contribution." We'll have a much better shot at grading guys like Harrell and Jackson next year. I mean, Jolly was pedestrian at best last year and he looks great this year. Who knows what'll happen in the future?

The one thing I like about Thompson is he doesnt really care so much about the combine stats, he just knows how to pick football players. Guys who arent all about themselves and know how to play as a team. Pretty much the exact opposide of how Sherman drafted i.e. Carroll

Interesting comment by Childress on the post game.

This is close:

"We got beat on both sides of the ball today. If we weren't ready, it's on me"


No shit Sherlock. At least he admits it.

In his defense, I would say that special teams were a push. Kluwe is a good punter.

Thanks Lurk......

Exactly what we needed, a convincing win against a bad team especially with them coming off such a huge performance against against an AFC powerhouse........ We'll see what happens in the Dallas game today but the Pack have to be considered as the best team in the NFC right now

Damn, footballfever, please tell me that's you in the profile pic.

I'm referring to the hot girl, not the monkey on her shoulder.

hahaha noooooooooo, nina conti a ventriloquist i had no idea where to find pics small enough to put as a display pic and i happened to find one of her

[oregonpackfan]

I said it early in this thread before he caught the TDs and I will say it again because right now it makes me look smart... I want to see more of Ruvell. He has good hands and can jump up and get the ball. He earned Favre's trust after today.

Hey Madtown,

You have always looked smart in my eyes!

Just got back from the game.

Wow...what an ass kicking in every aspect of the game! M3 really had this team ready to go today and I thought his playcalling was excellent.

After the game some MN fans were bitching about Al's cheap shot on AP. Now, we don't get to see all the replays like you do on TV, but it certainly didn't look that way to me.

Now why would anyone say that....it was a regular tackle. Were the people in question drunk as hell? Out of curiosity, were there any Justin Harrels who thought it was a wonderful moment in football?

[RashanGary]

It wasn't a cheap shot at all. Peterson runs hard and the Packers played hard. IF he wasn't to last in this league, he might want to protect his body a little better than he has.

[RashanGary]

Oh, shut up sore loser. I believe in physical football and I enjoy seeing a defense that hurts the other team. Get over it.

[RashanGary]

You never hear me bitch about the Bear fans threatening to take Favre out. Know why? Because that's football. Get over it.

I have no problem with the hit at all. Your prediction and gloat tells us all about you. You don't even get it, do you?


Packers playing physical was fine. I have no problem with the way Green Bay played. I have no problem with the hit.

I'm over it. Read your fellow fans comments about you...I'd be proud.

[Guiness]

Wow, didn't catch this game, and am I pissed!

Another INT for Woodson, 2 sacks for Gbaha, Robinson with 5 catches, Lee with another 4 - what's not to like!

I would've like to see the 66yd punt by Ryan. I know it ends up being a net of 46 'cause it was a touchback, but damn that must've been something

Only downside I see in this game is that J. Ryan didn't get any rushing yards. Gota get him some reps!

[Lurker64]

Yeah, there's nothing wrong with the hit. But it's wrong to be happy that a guy got hurt. I hated Michael Irvin when he was playing and I still hate him. Still, my heart went out to the guy when he broke his neck in Philadelphia and was carted off on a board. By all accounts Adrian Peterson is a pretty good human being, and I don't want to see him get any more hurt than it takes to get him to stop playing against my squad.
