This is where the wheels come off.

JUST KIDDING! This Packers team has a tendency to play up to it’s competition, for at least the two quarters during which they actually show up. (Or sometimes down to their competition, as we saw last week.)

The problem for the past three games is that they haven’t shown up for those two quarters.

Well this is where the Packers love to be. They are now in a position with their backs to the wall, a truly “must win” situation. That’s where they put themselves in ’10 before they made their run. That’s where they put themselves in games on a routine basis. They are incapable of just playing well and putting other teams away.

If the Packers lose today (and I don’t think they will,) Mike McCarthy will be on the hot seat. They pissed away a Superbowl appearance (and quite likely a victory in that game) last year and now are doing the same with this season. But I do not believe they will lose.

The Packers will win this game, right the ship and make a playoff appearance, without having to earn the dreaded “Home Field Advantage.” Not sure how they’ll do in the playoffs, but they’ll be back to their usual “show up for two quarters and get a victory” lifestyle, and everyone will be happy again.

Will this “FAIL as much as you can before you really start trying” tendency cost Mike his job at some point? Yes. I just don’t think that time is now.

I’m a little bit disappointed in Aaron this week for, 1: faking an injury as an excuse for his statwhoring and shitty play and 2: hiding behind his girlfriend’s twitter account to attack Demovsky over his recent article suggesting that Aaron might be having relationship issues. When Greg Jennings sister did that, everyone reacted quite negatively.

I disagree. The Packers will come out with a solid first drive or second drive and then fall to the way side. The Vikings are too good in comparison to the Packers in all three phases of the game. Their QB is playing better than our QB. Their RB is superior to our RB's collectively.

Mike Zimmer defense is taking form and when previous Zimmer defenses faced Aaron Rodgers, they whooped up the Packers.

The Packers will get doubled up this weekend unless Rodgers is on target.

The only change the Packers have is if Rodgers is on target and WR catch the ball. If that does not happen, which it won't, the Packers are going to lose by double digits.

Agree and disagree.

I agree with you nerdman about Rodgers being really really annoying with his behavior and his comments. Demovsky is indeed and idiot but tell him yourself, what kind of person sends a girl to say things to a man?

I disagree about the Packers playing well 2 quarters. We play like shit all game long, what happens is that once ahead the other team start using a prevent defense and we start taking more risks so it seems we are playing better but actually the other team is playing softer.

I agree with Zero about our first drive being usually a good one and then we implode. We've seen this a lot lately so we are used to it.

This game is a fight of forces, on one side our crappy preparation and Mike McCarthy on the other side the Vikings that are due for their annual great slide, a tradition they have honored for years.

So I think it all depends on the Vikes, either they shoot themselves on the foot and start their slide or they just win because we have lost our identity.

Admit it, this team is not really that good. It basically revolves around Rodgers. If he plays lights out, then they win, anything else and it's a loss.

Sorry Nerd, I asked the "Magic 8ball" if the Packers would win like Nerd said and he/she said "it is doubtful".😕

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
