I have to ask my fellow Packer fans this question: which quarterback would you rather see this weekend -- Favre or Jackson.

Unless there's an injury problem with Favre affecting his throwing ability (e.g., the shoulder), I'd still rather face Jackson.

Frankly, with Minnesota's OL and underachieving defense, I don't think either one can beat the Packers unless the Packers turn out really flat. But I think the Vikings have a bit more of a chance to monkeywrenching the "shoulds" if Favre is their QB.

And if I were a Viking fan, I'd have another reason for wanting Favre as the QB. Whoever is QB this year is going to have to deal with Chilly's incompetence. Might as well have opposing teams beat the crap out of a guy who is going to retire at the end of the year anyway rather than out of a potential "quarterback of the future."

Wade - I want to beat my opponent at 100% of his game, not 50% of his game.

Let's consider something. Let's say I run into Andre Agassi in my retirement home. We're in our 90s. I beat him at tennis because he has 2 fake knees and his shoulder was surgically repaired. Does that make me cool? Not really.

Now let's say this. I run into Andre Agassi tomorrow. I beat him in tennis tomorrow. Does that make me cool? Hell yes.

Right now, I'd take a lot more pride beating the NE Patriots than I would the Buffalo Bills.

I'm just glad he's not OUR QB right now.
Yes, he was good last year.
But as good as he was last year, he's horrible this season.
Thus, being as he's with the Vikings, i hope they let him play the rest of the year.

This is the thing. One of my brothers is a Cows fan. As much as you guys hate the Vikings, I hate the Cows worse. (He's a Cows fan because we moved around a lot and my folks currently living in Texas).

Anyways, we beat an injured Cows team, I txt him and he'll say "well, we were injured. If we weren't so injured, we'd beat you guys."

That's yet another reason I don't want my opponent to have an excuse.

Favre - like 4PackGirl said, I want that last bit of revenge, just like he wanted his in '09. He got two, I want two. With more interceptions. And I want to watch him limp off the field looking dejected, knowing that the Packers just made sure his last year will end in failure.

True.......he took great pleasure in beating the Packers twice last year.
Would be nice to repay the favor.

The Vikings are in our way of home field advantage. We have to beat them. I'm seeing this more as taking care of business than personal.

I want to see this season as 13-3 with us having home field advantage and going on to win the SB. Anyone in our way gets beaten. Nothing personal. Just taking care of business.

I agree, Zombie.
With the Bears winning, we need to at LEAST keep pace with them.....hopefully to pass them up BEFORE we meet them in GB.
Whoever is in our way needs to be DESTROYED!!!

Exactly. I'm sick of this nice guy stuff. In the tie breaking procedures, I forgot what order they go in but there's record first, then head-to-head, then I think it's conference record. Not sure the 3rd one though. But I know point differential is in there. That may be 5th or 6th but it's in there.

Yeah, I don't want to hear any of this "Well, we need to win 4 or 5 of our next 7". No, we need to play the football we know we can play for the rest of the year and finish 13-3. When the offense and defense are clicking and special teams is at least not giving up huge plays, there's not a team in the league that can stop us.

Mucky Tundra (43m) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning
Zero2Cool (6h) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.
Zero2Cool (6h) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022
packerfanoutwest (6h) : pro bowl
Zero2Cool (6h) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (6h) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.
packerfanoutwest (6h) : it was always after the SB.....
beast (16h) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago
beast (16h) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?
packerfanoutwest (16h) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii
TheKanataThrilla (17h) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it
Mucky Tundra (17h) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (17h) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (18h) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (18h) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (18h) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?
Zero2Cool (18h) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting
TheKanataThrilla (18h) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings
TheKanataThrilla (18h) : Great throw by Hurts
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez
Mucky Tundra (18h) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away
Mucky Tundra (18h) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems
beast (18h) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (18h) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (18h) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (18h) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (18h) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (18h) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (18h) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (18h) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (18h) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (18h) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (19h) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (19h) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (19h) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
Mucky Tundra (19h) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire
Martha Careful (19h) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs
Mucky Tundra (19h) : this game is over
Mucky Tundra (19h) : This might be the kill shot here
Mucky Tundra (19h) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : Philly DL has come to play
TheKanataThrilla (19h) : Ceoper DeJean with the INT scored...bad memories of draft night
Mucky Tundra (20h) : ok scratch that
