APete isn't going to murder us, their passing game won't either, so I'm not sure why we'd think we're underdogs to the Viking if we put up more than say, 20 points. As long as we do our usual job protecting the ball.

The Packers opened against an AFC unfamiliar opponent and thus did not deploy Jared Cook as to not give their conference and division rival any tape on how they were using Cook.

Sunday Night, we will see the Cook packages.

Packers 31
Vikings 17

Be it Sam or Shaun, my advice to either is "Run bitch, RUN!"

The only thing they have going for them is the opening of their new stadium. Hill and Bradford should make the game plan for the Packers defense much easier because they both equally suck.

Packers- 27
Vikings- 17

Packers 20 - Vikings 13

Wouldnt necessarily be surprised to see it go the other way but I'd be sorely disappointed. Their defense may well be top 5 this year and has started off very well. On the flip side, if Peterson is slowing down with his age, they may have major problems on offense. I don't think they'll have a passing game to speak of. A poor man's Denver, which is nothing to sneeze at, especially opening a new stadium. But beatable nonetheless.

If our run defense is as effective as it was last week we should win.

Their defense scored 2 TD's last week, or the Queens would have lost.
Their D is good, but AR isn't stupid and won't hand them any free points.
I do see it as being a close game though, as the Queenies will be up because of their new digs.
Green Bay 31
Queenies 17

Due to concussion, Sam Shields (CB) will not play against the Vikings on Sunday .

I don't see this as a critical problem , but Stopping A.Peterson will be . This I believe that GB can do .

Green Bay - 24
Minnesota - 20

Should be a blowout, but ends up being a nail-biter.

Mason Crosby rules with a last second long FG. Vike fans spend next week whining.

Apete will be primed. He had a shitty game last week and now everyone is saying he's lost a step. He's gonna want to bust out and prove the naysayers wrong. We are thin at DL, but we've got Datone and Perry as elephants. EDGE: Peterson

But Bradford doesn't have he offense down yet. Nor does he have synchronization with the WRs. Sure, we're missing Shields, but Bradford's never been great even with a TC in the system. EDGE: Packers

I agree with Zero about Cook. If he's gonna be utilized, this is the week it will happen. If Mike doesn't put him in the game plan this week, that's a really bad sign.

I'm just hoping we see the offense start to look like it did pre-2015. I'm tied of nearly every pass being a stupid back shoulder throw, or Rodgers having to dance around and wait for somebody to finally break free. USE THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD MM!

packerfanoutwest (54m) : don't care

Zero2Cool (6h) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (13h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (13h) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (14h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (14h) : now 3

Zero2Cool (15h) : Who? What?

beast (23h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
