Wide receiver Donald Driver, though, too the opportunity to throw his support behind his current quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, instead of his longtime friend, Favre. He said repeatedly I dont care when asked about Favres fantastic finish, then vowed that Rodgers would be unfazed by the hype this week promises to bring.

He handled it all last year, and hell be able to handle it again. I think hes fine, Driver said. Id go to battle with him all day long. Hes our quarterback, hes our man right now. And hes going to continue being our man for as long as his contract says hes our man. We have to have his back, just like he has to have our back. And were going to go to war with him. Thats how we have to play the game.

Oh.....believe me....ANY Packer player that says "they don't care" about the upcoming game is just blowing smoke.
You can BET that BOTH teams care, ALOT.
But no one wants to be quoted and used as locker room fodder.

Remember the Jets said the Patriots game was their Super Bowl up to this point? I am wanting this game to be the same intensity level. Every game should be intense, but this is MNF, against our hated rival and our former QB.

This vikings game has all the ingredients to be a classic, i for one dont mind staying up all night for this MNF, even though it means i have to skip sleeping and go straight to work.
I hope the matchup of a ball hawking secondary and QB Brett Favre turns out the way it sounds.

It amazes me how Donald Driver is able to continue to play at such a high level. He's out there blowing past rookies 12 years younger than him.

The Rams game was classic Donald Driver. Crazy left-handed circus catch mixed in with wide open drops. I go from saying, "How could he drop that?!" to "How the hell could he catch that?!"

Gotta love the guy.

2 words - work ethic.

Jerry Rice was the same way. Simply worked harder than his peers.

It can't possibly only be work ethic, though. Obviously, he keeps his body in great condition, but it's nothing short of miraclous that a receiver who goes over the middle and gets hit that much doesn't get injured more often. Or is still even playing the game. There's a bit of luck involved, lol.

That said, he has a great mentality and is very tough. There's a fair share of work involved in playing for such a long time. Especially if you play like Driver does.

Rock - Life is 50% luck, 50% skill.

I've known people who did EVERYTHING right and still got cancer, and one of my closest friends was addicted to intravenous cocaine, was an alcoholic, and smokes like a chimney to this day. He'll probably live to be 80.

Fair? No.

That's the luck part of it.

The skill part of it was Jerry Rice did train harder than anybody, and I really mean anybody. He trains in the San Francisco area and lots of sports stars try to keep up with him. I think there were 4 people who were able to keep up with him. One of them was a baseball player. I forgot who they were though.

I'm sure Driver's work ethic is circles around a lot of others.

But yeah, you make a brilliant point about going up the middle. That's what I mean by luck. Like my ex-coke addicted friend. That part is luck.

Mucky Tundra (2h) : The Seattle Seahawks defeat the Chicago Bears 6-3. Jason Myers had 6 RBIs for Seattle while Cairo Santos had 3 RBI for Chicago

beast (3h) : Not nessarily, he might of been injured either way. He's playing about 50% of the games the last 4 years

Zero2Cool (9h) : If they'd been more patient with him, he'd be back already. Putting him out there vs Bears caused him to tweak it and here we are.

packerfanoutwest (9h) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it

beast (10h) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done

Zero2Cool (17h) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.

Mucky Tundra (26-Dec) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore

packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : Feliz Navidad!

Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!

beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
