Vikings @ Packers GDT: Sunday, Jan. 1st, 3:25 PM CST

[go pak go]

It's our day today.

It's the inverse of MN week 1

[German_Panzer]

One of those games you hope happen when you play the SB. Everything rollin in our direction.

[BF004]

Man, absolutely loving the score, and the D, but feel like we could be playing so much better.


Ja embarrassing Jefferson is just amazing so far.


Finish strong!!

We know we can blow and they can come back.

[RingoCStarrQB]

You don't see a kick hit the crossbar and go over very often.

We're in rarefied air Willie. Somethings goin' on in Titletown. Even Savage is playing well.

[GJPackerBacker]

There are so many impressive plays for the Packers in the first half - Nixon’s return, 2 pics, aggressive D, Tonyan TD, Mason’s 56 yard figgie and so on.

This is what impresses me the most.

The ST screw up at the start of the game gave the Vikings the ball inside the 10 yard line. The D didn’t fold. An impressive stop to hold the Vikes to 3 points after a major screw up. That stop set the tone for the game going forward.

Mattie you’ve got these guys prepared today. Well done!!

[Scott4Pack]

Hollins? Is that the guy we got a couple of weeks ago?

He’s been in GB now for 4-5 weeks I think. But that was not his first sack here.

[Scott4Pack]

THis first half will be meaningful if the Packers come out for 30 more minutes of the same. It seems they are more motivated than the Vikes too. We’ll see if that sticks in the second half.

Would be nice if the O could take the first drive for a TD.

He’s been in GB now for 4-5 weeks I think. But that was not his first sack here.

And he’s been getting a lot of friggen lately too.

Still think we could use another edge body if we wanna get real yet this year. Man, I’d be so much more enthusiastic if we had Gary, I’d legit feel like we’d have a real chance.

[Scott4Pack]

Hey the running D has been respectable today so far. If they can keep that up and keep Jefferson in check…

I’d love to see Enegbare take another positive step.

The lack of Gary and not knowing what we are going to get from the QB position is my largest reservation.

I was hoping for more from Preston Smith today

[Scott4Pack]

I like it the NFL CBS guys are making a point of the DLine getting their hands up and obscuring the vision of the passing lanes. Also puts a little more pressure on Cousins. And we have seen this D get better at that these past few weeks. May it continue for much longer!

[Cdragon]

Jefferson should have been tossed for hitting the Ref.

THis team is starting to put it together.

[Yoop]

It's almost Nixon time again, and you guessed it, he wants another house, the guy wants to be a real estate honcho

[GJPackerBacker]

First half

Packers 27 Vikings 3

Lots of talk about how the Vikings like to come back in the second half.
1. Did the grab some kid from East HS to come in and be their new center?
2. Did Jefferson get a brain transplant to infuse a new attitude?
3. Hmmm - new kicker too?

The Packers will continue to play with the same energy.

[go pak go]

Fantastic job by Innes Gaines on that punt coverage.

[Drj820]

Running the ball was working and then we stopped

[Pckfn23]

Come Aaron, at least give him a chance...

[go pak go]

Running the ball was working and then we stopped

We didn't stop.

We had a good pass design on 1st down and it looked like Rodgers had a bad ball to Watson. Just made it difficult. Then we ran it on 2nd and 10 and only got a yard.

The 1st down play to Watson was open. Wide open. The throw just made it difficult. Should have been easy. Then it was a give up play on 3rd down.

[BF004]

Classic o out of half there
