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

[lupedafiasco]

Savage had a game. It needs to be recognized that he has turned his career around a bit the last two weeks. He is still a piece of &%$@ wet blanket defender against the run but his aggressiveness in coverage today was great.

Vikings are now at -19. They would need to beat the Bears by 51 to not be the worst 12+ win team in point differential. They would have to beat the Bears by 83 to not be the worst 13+ win team in point differential.

How crazy would it be if it's the 4-8 Packers that are actually the team to go and beat the damned 49ers in the playoffs.

If we play the 49ers 100 times we would go 0-100. Not only are they a better team but have the better matchups across the board. They gap us at every position except CB and that doesn’t matter in the playoffs what you have a strong front 4.

I'm honestly glad we will play SF because if there is a week to face them...it's right away. They are the team to beat in the conference IMO.

But yes I agree that a win vs them is very unlikely. At some point we need a great performance from Rodgers to do something. We can't beat SF relying solely on our run game and defense like we have all year.

We would need our OLine to do better than the last time we played them in the playoffs and better than they’ve played all this season so far. That isn’t undoable. But it is a challenge, for sure. If they can keep Rodgers clean, anything can happen, especially if we have any success running the ball. But we shouldn’t get ahead of ourselves. Lions are next up. They have a good and hefty OLine too. Barry’s D will need to show that it’s for real or we’ll get beat good.

If we played this aggressive on D all year we would have won the division. Really would like Barry to explain why it took so long.

Me too. What the heck was Barry doing all of these past weeks / weekends? I think he's still fire-able. But then again whatever I think doesn't really matter.

Let us all know if you get a PM ripping you for posting the same thing in 2 different threads. A few weeks ago I was chastised for posting the famous 1968 Sports Illustrated with Bob Brown and Forrest Gregg on the cover proclaiming "The Packers Are Not Dead".

Only some of us aren’t allowed to discuss certain things.

Anyways, great win.

Same with you, [mention]Drj820[/mention]. Get over your butt-hurtness over whatever it was you keep dredging up. None of us even remember anymore. Funny how you can hold a grudge over some perceived minor slight from months ago while completely ignoring your own douchebaggery over the past month in thread after thread pissing on fans holding out hope for a playoff run.

[Pugger]

Honestly wasn’t feeling it today. Everything had been going too well, just didn’t think this team, D in particular, was good enough. But damn!!

Don’t even wanna think about how we match up against playoff teams, felt like we’ve played most already. But just need tunnel vision. Beat Detroit, figure it out after that.

Yup, one thing at a time. If we slip up and lose next week it's all over.

Sorry to offend you. I said it was a great win.

Oh I get it now .... it was the "non-topic related post" offense that caused this. I'll try to remember to do a better job staying on topic. Go Packers.

Does 23 or anybody have any figures on how many QB pressures we had yesterday? I know there were some. But I actually was hoping for more.

All I know is Next Gen Stats has Clark at 7 for the game. Should know more later this morning.

So? The Lions are currently +22 and fighting to get into the playoffs. Jacksonville is +50 fighting for a playoff spot. 3 of the Viking's losses account for 78 points.

And the Packers are at what? +3 fighting to get into the playoffs.

Tell me, what would you rather be -19 and in or +3 and fighting to get in?
