I watch every Packer game for years, I bet em when I think they will cover, I look for Green Bay to get destroyed this week. I mean 10 + point loss.
The Pack can defeat the Vikings tomorrow in a phonebooth or in Minn.
:00x31
all im saying is don't poke the bear ...
I get they arent the most talented team in the league, and complaining about refs is bush league, but if all of a sudden gb starts thinking they are getting cheated or underdogs, there could be hell to pay--we'll see how the hou game goes--obviously hou should win, but any given Sundayopcorn2
Well the Packers played a complete football game and they looked as good as anyone yesterday. See if they can sustain that type of pass protection going forward. Texans bump and run coverage was no match.
Vikes defense played poorly, they couldn't contain RG 3, they were run on, and bit for play action over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. It was frustrating to watch.
Knew the Vikes were in trouble when they came away with 3 FGs in a first quarter they dominated. The bubble kind of burst when Ponder fumbled without being touched and gave them an easy TD then he had a pick 6 later.
Was not all shocked they lost to Washington as I posted to take Washington in my parlay thread.
You can see 4 keys to Vikings that will need to be shored up if they want to be amongst the best in the NFC..
1. The left guard Charlie Johnson is a stiff. They need a left guard bad.
2. They lack the explosive down the field receiver, kind of like a go to guy for 15 yards and a goal line guy. Harvin is a great receiver but he catches most of his balls from the line of scrimmage to the 5 - 10 yard range. They rely way too much on Rudolph. Plus Ponder needs to have a guy he can feel confident chucking the ball to when they need a big play. Right now teams can crown the Line of Scrimmage cause the vikes don't have a reliable guy to stretch the D.
3. The Secondary just has to get more experienced. They played OK yesterday but their youth showed time and again. They need to get FS Mistral Raymond back, Jemarca Sanford can be a little lost at times and he was yesterday.
4. Blitz pass protection, They struggled picking up the blitzes and put Ponder in a bind.
at least you're not a cowboys fan:sadwave:
im adopting gb the rest of this year--i hate the cowboys right now, thought I couldn't hate them anymore than the chi tobbacle---nope, hate them even more now--settling for a 51 yd fg with 2 timeouts left--f those assholes
More to add, why does everyone still love Green Bay? Is it denial? What is it? It's simple this team can't run, can't pass block and Jennings being out is putting a blow to the passing game. My best fiend is a die hard Packer fan and we agree that we think Rogers is so worried about his stats, he won't let the ball fly in fear of a pick or dropping his completion percentage. Either that or he lost faith in his receiving core who can't catch, or both. The O line is going to get him killed. Yeah their defense looked good early but it was just a matter of time before teams picked on them and discovered that they are a fraud. The ONLY way the Packers can get pressure is by blitzing the sink, teams know they can dump off and run quick routes something the Bears refused to do. Attack the packers right down the seam a few times then they can't blitz, leaving all day to pass. Plus Raji being hurt leaves their run defense a mess. Yeah Green Bay can right the ship but it just looks like one of those disappointing seasons where everything goes wrong. I would like any Packer fan to dispute my analysis, add in the terrible calls by the refs and its a drain circle for Super Bowl hopes, I have always said the packers have been beneficiary of calls for years but the last 3 games have been atrocious against them Sam Shields has been called for about 3 horrible PI calls and the Colt guy last week pushed him in the back and he gets called setting up a TD. The regular refs suck out loud.
As for the Vikes and Wash. If RG 3 plays the Skins win. I know I have been talking a lot of shit in this thread but deep down I'm a realist. They beat Wahington then I think they go 7-1, just can't see it happening but pinch me or slap me in the face if it does. :toast:
You sure know A LOT about a team that you hate. Some might call it infatuation.
I think we'll convert you and you'll see the light by season's end. There IS good in you.

vikes will finish 6-10.
