D-Day v2.0 - Vikings @ Packers

Before the season began, I picked the Vikings to split the series with the Packers and Motor City Kitties, and sweep da Bearce.. And I'll stand by that prediction.

This week's game will be close, much like they've been the last 3 games.. and it'll come down to a last second FG to win. Crosby doesn't miss this time. 24-23 (Allen gets yet another safety for the Vikes)

I'm obviously cheering for the purple packer eaters, but with the interesting defensive play by the Vikes, and with A-Rod ready to light things up in Green Bay, I see a pure air attack by the Packers. Green Bay will shut down one or the other, Favre or AP, but not both, as the one that doesn't get shut down will make a fool out of the Pack defense. In the end, it'll boil down to Mason Crosby to make a FG, and this time he pulls it off as the North winds suddenly cease for his 3 second miracle.

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

Damn I wish someone would make a thread every wednesday dedicated to the upcoming game. wait a tick pinky the brain! SOMEONE DOES THAT ALREADY!!

Damn purple chumps reigning in on my parade.

Hey eager beaver, how about we discuss the the previous game for a couple days before we move on to the next game, ya know, like we've been doing here for quite some time?
Damn eager beavers. I like beavers, shaved one's taste the best. Less hair in the mouth = good thing.

POW RIGHT IN THAAA KISSAH.

I will reserve my comment for Wednesdays Thread after that... :)

Here is a hint though... It will be a big dissapointment for those looking for a Brett/Rodgers show down.

I'd rather end Favre's Streak than win the game. Is that wrong?

You were even nice enough to get over your team by picking the Pack in a nail biter, how considerate. It should be a great game. Some sloppy mistakes, high energy, players getting pissed, and it should be another close one. I just hope this time it's the Pack that make the Vikes sit for two weeks and think about a heartbreaking loss.

All I have to say is the team that wins this game will probably lead the division after week 9 and going into week 10.

Also RUN the dang ball MM... ( 4-0 if Grant runs it at least 16 times )

It'll be a great game again like last time. I know it's too late but we should've won the last showdown if our o-line was better/healthier. 3 plays in the redzone and no score. This time it'll be different with Grant running the ball better and Rodgers getting better protection and having time to throw the ball to our WRs. Can't wait!

Worst part is, I won't be even able to watch the game myself, as it'll be aired from 4 am to 7 am where I live, and my thesis is due that day at 12 noon.

Both have quality. Here's less quanity, therefore I follow most threads/sections here more closely (mostly the general discussion, NFL discussion, NFC North section, and Back Alley).

Over at PP.O, I'm more sporatic, which leads to me only following a handful of threads, and whatever is in the 'From the Huddle' (latest posts).

Allow me to introduce myself to you. I'm Kevin, I'm kind of the founder of this website, somewhat of the one who created it. One of my many goals for this site was to talk Packers, be an outlet for Packers talk for a few people. With that said, I don't really care about helping other teams fans get over their loss. We're not trying to move past our win, we're trying to find some positives, negatives, etc. Then gradually transition into the next game.
