As for head to head with the Vikings, McCarthey is still 5-2, so I don't know what the choke the season away comment is about.

That's just the way the cookie crumbled. I'll take it, luck or not.

For over 3 quarters, though, the Vikings pretty much dominated the Ravens. All it took was a nice adjustment on the Ravens to attack a worthless backup CB and a few conservative offensive calls by the Vikings to get back into the game.

And 93z, I don't blame Allen for that Ray Rice TD.. The announcers even mentioned that was the safety's hole to fill, and he was late getting there. Big time late. Tyrell Johnson. He's gotta step up his game.

What I find funny is how all you Pack fans are holding on to the string of faith that the Vikings will eventually choke their season away, just like history says. That's something the Packers have been getting good at in recent years, too.

If you're feeling good about the quality of football your team has displayed this season, then I've given you too much credit for being a knowledgeable football fan in the past. They should be 4-2, with wins over real crappy Cleveland and Detroit teams. Let's not pencil them in to the Super Bowl just yet.

I never said I was feeling good about the quality of football the Vikes have displayed.. Well, kinda. The quality of football my team displayed for the majority of the Ravens game I was impressed with, thus feeling good about. The DBs display in the 4th quarter is a completely different story. You say they 'should be' a certain record, when they are not. Good football teams win close football contests. Good football teams beat teams they are supposed to beat. Both of those categories, the Vikings are passing. What if the Vikings scored a TD in the final 2 minutes of that Ravens game instead of settling for a FG? Or what if they scored 2 TDs in the final half of the 4th? If you guys can play the 'what if' game with that last FG attempt, I can do the same in the opposing direction. Bottom line, my team won, thus I'm happy with. Not with 100% of the performance, but with the record.

And the choke comment about the Packers.. How many playoff appearances have you guys had since your last Super Bowl win, and how many failed Super Bowl wins? 31 teams choke away their season every year. Some choke it away sooner rather than later by not making the playoffs, others wait a bit longer. The longer your team waits to win the big game, the more choke-fest seasons you deal with.

What the crap are you talking about? When have the Packers looked GOOD in the first quarter of the season? The Packers are known for being SLOW starters. The last playoff game we had, what play, umm, enough said.

STFU. Take your six wins and shove them up your ass!

But, back up what ya said please. I wanna know when the Packers started out so hot and choked down the stretch. I think you'll have a helluva time finding a time when the Packers started 6 - 0, but after you find it, post it. Post when we've choked like the Vikings.

I will say we choked away the 07 season.. as LTF stated.. whom had a hand in that choke?

BTW.. you can pin that Rice touchdown on Johnson all you want.. Allen got pushed out of the play be a tight end with an assist of his own.. he was setting up wider and wider to try and get by Oher because he couldn't beat him straight up... the Ravens seen it and exploited it.

Oher in a Packer uni would have looked nice I think. Heard he spouted that Allen wasn't anything special.. that outta send the redneck off his rocker for a couple days. Waiting for Allen to spout off back..

They're 6 - 0. Luck has nothing to do with it. They are the better team. The better team won.

Did you watch the game? The Ravens absolutely had their way on offense with the Vikes on all of their last possessions. They scored in 1:13 to get it to 27-17. Minnesota gets a FG after the Ravens have an awesome defensive stand in the red zone to make it 30-17. The Ravens score a few minutes later after a big play by Ray Rice to make it 30-24. The Vikes get the ball and get dominated by Ray Lewis and the D for a three and out and the Vikings have to punt from their end zone. Ravens get the ball at the Vikings 35 yard-line and on the first play Ray Rice runs into the end zone making it 31-30 Ravens. The Vikings get the ball and are looking like they might get stopped when Favre heaves a ball into one-on-one coverage against Frank Walker who gets beat and the Vikings are already in the FG range. They run the clock and then get the FG to take the lead 34-31. Flacco gets the ball at the 20 with no timeouts and 1:58 left. He makes phenomenal throws to lead his team to a 44-yard FG with 3 seconds on the clock. Than the kicker misses. Now the Vikings clearly were getting beat in the final quarter of the game but two big, considerably lucky plays (63 yard Favre all or nothing bomb and a missed FG) aided them in winning the game. I think they deserved to get beat and I don't think the better team prevailed in this game.

Yea but the fourth quarter is the last quarter of the game and when it's over the team with the most points win. So whoever does better in the fourth quarter and takes the lead will probably win the game...

I mean seriously, if you're going to criticize my post say something more than a one-liner.

You have two good teams playing this game, the Vikings and the Ravens. The Ravens have now lost 3 really close games after starting 3-0. The Vikings have done the exact opposite squeaking out with wins in two close games. All I'm saying is a few plays go a different way in the closing seconds of each game and the Ravens could be 6-0 while the Vikings could be 4-2. Yes, things didn't go that way, I understand, but saying that the Vikings didn't get lucky today is complete bullshit--any NFL kicker should make that field goal.

Damn straight I'll pin that TD on Johnson.. he was untouched, had a clean shot.. And fucking WAVED to Rice as he ran by.

He.
WAVED.

I'm not saying Allen couldn't have maybe broken that hold that offensive guy had on and maybe had a hand in bringing Rice down. But Johnson didn't have to break any sort of block/hold.

EDIT: Oh, I'm aware of who was the QB of your Packer's chokefests (Rodgers was the leader last year).. But it really doesn't matter who the players are.

All I wanted you to do was have you admit you are not as good as your record. Never do you guys take the humble approach, and that is why I fricken hate all of you. Viking fans carry unwarranted arrogance, especially when you consider all of the talent that has been pissed away by that organization.

beast (1h) : 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

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
