*David Martin.
But there is no word yet on Derrick Martin huh? So lets recount this. Players injured (not all out for the season, obviously) include: Matthews, Martin, Finley, Rodgers (if he does indeed have a concussion), Grant, Bigby, Harris, Barnett, Burnett, Pickett, Chillar, Lee, Tauscher, and Shields..... I am probably missing some. Now people have made comparisons to '96 many times with the amount of injuries that we have right now, but was it really this bad? I try to stay positive, because God knows that all my douchebag vikings-fan friends will tear me apart for the rest of the season (regardless of how much the injuries have affected us). If I never believed in negative karma, I sure as hell do now. Everybody talking about how we're going to go to the SB. Always made me nervous. And now we're all injured.
Now, I will put the gun away and settle down. I think that our defense as a whole deserves player of the game for the Packers. They did very well considering how many back-ups were in. Most everybody that came in stepped up. Hawk (if you want to consider him a back-up, some may) made a ton of tackles, as did Bishop and Peprah. I think these guys all stepped up immensely. I'm not looking forward to talking to people about it tomorrow, but hey, it's football, and if we have learned anything this year (all across the league), it's that nothing is ever a sure bet.
