Rodgers was definitely on his game. Just the look he had on his face whenever he was on the field, you could tell how calm he was and how good his composure was. Great game by him, and he made some incredible throws. I wonder if his play had anything to do with him wanting to show up Greg Jennings.

Jordy Nelson continued to prove himself as an elite receiver in this league. Jarrett Boykin looked very good, seems to be getting comfortable in the offense. Myles White didn't look half bad, had one drop but showed some quickness on a couple other plays.

Running game impressed again tonight for the most part. Loved seeing James Starks come out and prove a point. You could tell that he was on a mission. I love it for him. Hopefully he'll stay healthy because he's a great 1-2 punch with Lacy.

Great game overall, just wish our special teams wouldn't have given that play up on the opening kickoff, as well as I wish the defense wouldn't have given up those garbage yards and points at the end.

I'm very pleased with this victory, though. Seems like we came out pretty healthy. That's the best part!

The Packers did not punt the entire game. I think that speaks for itself.

Great win. The Vikings never had a chance. The Packers are simply on a MUCH different level than the Vikings. I expected nothing less.

Yup I don't care what the score says as long as we win.

The 2 most important factors coming out of each in every game should be
1. A win
2. Stay healthy

1)Our offense looked incredibly efficient last night.
2) aaron rodgers response in the pregame interview about the things greg jennings had said about him prove it was much more than just friendly ribbing.

from Jason Wilde article... wow
Aaron Rodgers doesn’t get all of the credit for the team’s brilliance
[list]
  • on third down (converting 13 of 18, including their first seven in a row),
  • for owning time of possession (40 minutes, 54 seconds to 19 minutes, 6 seconds),
  • for running the ball in dominating fashion (a season-high tying 182 yards),
  • for shutting down Vikings running back Adrian Peterson (13 carries, 60 yards)
  • or for delivering the biggest plays of the game –
  • Jordy Nelson’s 76-yard touchdown catch-and-run
  • and Micah Hyde’s 93-yard punt return –
  • when the game was still in the balance.

    There was so much to feel good about last night that I hate to be the one to dwell on the negative but someone has to so it may as well be me.

    The biggest letdown to me was the KO returns and coverage. I'm sure Franklin was just trying to show what he could do after Patterson's opening return and that is why he brought the first one out but he he is not Patterson. He should have simply downed that one. And I suppose one could forgive him the attempt, if you can call it that right before the half as it didn't really matter, there were going to be no offensive plays no matter what happened so why not bring it out but he should have simply brought it out with no hesitation.

    As for the coverage, What coverage? They did well on Patterson's second attempt but on his other returns he had 109, 30, 22, and 51 yards. They did get smart and kick it short on the last one.

    Why was Crosby kicking off? Do they figure whatever may have been bothering him on FGs is done with so he can handle the duties again? They were fine so no problems there but I hope it doesn't make him revert to last year with the added responsibility.

    Running the ball down their throats was awesome!

    From what I read last night, they went back to Crosby on kick-offs because he has more hang time than Masthay's kick-offs (allowing the team to get down the field). I am going to guess that having more success with the field goals allowed the Packers to make this change as well.

    I'm his biggest booster, but he definitely shit himself (again) last night. He'll get it together. He's got genuine talent.
