Pretty close to even, the Vikings aren't going to win any games with Jackson throwing 35+ times. You can't go wrong with Grant or Peterson, but Grant is in a much more favorable position being that the Packers are a throw first team and the Vikings aren't a threat through the air.

They are two different styles of runners, and in all honesty, there's no way I can put Grant ahead of Peterson at this point. Maybe in time I can make that leap, provided Grant builds upon last season's success.

Grant had a solid game. Esp when you factor in his lack of training camp time.
But if both players were available and going to get the same pay I would take AP in a heartbeat.
Mike McCarthy would use AP better than Childress does.

There's no contest, Peterson is better. That's despite the fact that he's hamstrung by their coaching staff who refuse to give him enough carries or throw him screen passes.

Here is my point. All the pre game is about how good their running game and rushing D are.

Adrian early on was the better of the two, but as the game progressed, neither really played a significant role.

But with the hype surrounding the Run game and D-line, both were absent.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Sharpe and Holmgren are Hall of Fame finalists.

beast (4h) : I completely agree with you... I'm shocked that he's listed as practicing of any kind without be cleared of the protocol

Zero2Cool (4h) : I thought once practicing, they were out of protocol. so it is news to me

beast (4h) : Even LaFleur is saying "I don’t know all the nuances of that. They just tell me when he’s cleared.”

beast (4h) : Interesting that a player can BOTH be limited practicing and also in the concussion protocols... even LaFleur is saying "I don’t know all th

Zero2Cool (4h) : And the reason I think it is BS, is Bill isn't going to pine for a job that's not available. He respects the whole coaching people thing

Zero2Cool (4h) : I think it's BS. Jets thought win now with Rodgers, not happening.

beast (4h) : The rumor could be BS... but supposedly Belichick wouldn't like the Cowboys because then he'd have Jerry Jones butting in all the time

beast (4h) : And Belichick wants an owner that will be hands off and let a head coach fully steer the boat, and supposedly Jaguars owner is hands off

beast (4h) : Jaguars job because it's the closest job that might be available near his house in Jupiter Florida. And Belichick wants an owner that....

Zero2Cool (4h) : No reason to want Jaguars job, or Rodgers.

Zero2Cool (4h) : Doubs still in protocol

Mucky Tundra (7h) : That's an...interesting rumor

beast (8h) : Rumor, Bill Belichick is eyeing both the Jaguars and Aaron Rodgers for 2025... who knows if he'll be able to get either

beast (10h) : Based on numbers, Broncos and Browns had a wild one

beast (10h) : Alexander and Doubs were back at practice

Mucky Tundra (21h) : hey where's the game day thread for the Lions?

Mucky Tundra (22h) : Should we though?

Zero2Cool (22h) : Edgerrin Cooper, Corey Ballentine and Elgton Jenkins miss Monday practice

Zero2Cool (2-Dec) : We should talk Fantasy Football.

Zero2Cool (2-Dec) : No.

beast (2-Dec) : Will Rodgers keep copying Brett and join the Vikings next?

packerfanoutwest (2-Dec) : Rodgers needs to retire tomorrow

Mucky Tundra (2-Dec) : And you're still winning easily because I started all the wrong guys

buckeyepackfan (1-Dec) : MVS another td catch for The Saints

buckeyepackfan (1-Dec) : Tucker killing me in our FFL 2 missed Fg's 1 missed pat. lol

Zero2Cool (1-Dec) : Kickin ain't easy.

beast (1-Dec) : Anders Carlson hasn't missed a FG since Packers released him, including 50+ yarders... but has missed a couple of extra points

Mucky Tundra (1-Dec) : Justin Tucker with a missed PAT, what's going on with him this year?

Mucky Tundra (1-Dec) : That and just missing some games that were toss ups based on the Vegas line

Mucky Tundra (1-Dec) : Regarding pfow and Pick'em, I think he leaned too hard on "Everyone is picking Team A so I'll pick Team B"

beast (1-Dec) : I think Packers 1st playoff game might be Packers @ Seahawks, which we'll have in the regular season in two weeks

beast (1-Dec) : Yeah, Cardinals got me all excited for nothing... they choked. As of right now, we might get a playoff preview in 2 weeks

beast (1-Dec) : Did packerfanoutwest self-sabotage his pick'em? Doing so well, then this week

Mucky Tundra (1-Dec) : Also, shame on Arizona! Could have done us a solid by beating Minnesota

Mucky Tundra (1-Dec) : Just bring it dork!1!!

Zero2Cool (1-Dec) : I will fight you!!

Mucky Tundra (1-Dec) : you mean you weren't already? :P

Zero2Cool (1-Dec) : Christmas Tree and lawn thingies are up. Time to turn into Grinch now!

Mucky Tundra (29-Nov) : Mahomes Magic baby! *cough*

TheKanataThrilla (29-Nov) : KC the luckiest team in the league

Zero2Cool (29-Nov) : Frigging host issues for site again

beast (29-Nov) : For the first time in their long history, the Bears fire their head coach mid-season. Which comes after three very close in-division losses.

Zero2Cool (29-Nov) : At the game now. Kampman and Cullen Jenkins are here.

buckeyepackfan (29-Nov) : Happy Thanksgiving Packer Fans! Gonna celebrate with some grilled Dolphin later!

buckeyepackfan (29-Nov) : Inactive 23 CB Jaire Alexander 56 LB Edgerrin Cooper 62 OL Jacob Monk 87 WR Romeo Doubs

dhazer (29-Nov) : Just a talking point, do we try and trade Jaire next year to get out from the contract as he can't stay healthy

Zero2Cool (28-Nov) : Happy Thanksgiving! About to head to game.

wpr (28-Nov) : Happy Thanksgiving
