Dude, you were writing this team off in the chat room when we were down in the first half...and then you double down with this comment? Really?
Cold weather is a Packers advantage? This isn't 1996, we have a dome team. Don't get me wrong, the Packers will win, but they're the biggest bunch of softies in the NFC playoff field.quote:Originally posted by slowmo:
Will be a different game next week with a home crowd, cold weather, and on grass. Plus, unlike Jennings, McMillian and Burnett, Woodson at safety means a better tackler.
And, hopefully, Capers will pull his head out and realize the way to beat Ponder is to bring a pass rush, not stupid zones which let receivers run free.
The secondary was just sad this week. Sad. I swear to God they looked AFRAID. Gonna be tough bottling up Peterson next week. Worthy will be out for most if not all of next year. Well, at least we're not the Bears.
People think this is a Superbowl team? Seriously?
They pissed away a golden opportunity today to get the 2 seed with a weak ass effort against a mediocre team. Excellent!

They'll win next week, and then lose in San Francisco after getting punched in the mouth all day long.quote:Originally posted by bubbleboy789:

I don't think its so much the cold weather as the grass field it should help the o-line.

i'm just saying, they looked like crap today. am i wrong? Not saying they won't win. I'll bet you anything they win next week. But giving up 400 yards to the Vikings doesn't make me feel good about going to San Fran.
What sucks is that if they do win next week they have to go to San Fran. I'd have much rather played Atlanta. That's if they win, which is not a given whatsoever.
There were so many chances to win the game. They had the ball twice with a chance to take the lead, one time it was a fumble the next time they only got a field goal. Then they had 3rd and 12 and for some reason Casey Hayward forgot how to play football for a split second.

That was vintage December 2011 defense. The healthier bodies made no difference. Brain dead penalties and a very poor decision when MD Jennings tried to intercept the pass in the end zone instead of knocking it down. P-poor tackling. Blown coverages. Poor coverages. The dreaded 3 man rush. No forced turnovers. Velcro'd to the field.
AP is great but the Packers also got lit up by Christian Ponder. Christian Ponder.

i'm just saying, they looked like **** today. am i wrong?
Um, yeah, you are. The offense put up 34 without its most dynamic player. We miss a duck by Ponder in the first half, and they score a TD at the end of the half. A stupid play by Tramon Williams. The Vikings can't play any better than they did today, we can.

i suppose you're right. i'm just being a whiney little bitch. give me a few mins to snap out of it.
Losing Perry and Bulaga really showed up in the game today. Barclay was getting abused far too often, and what needs to be said about Walden/Zombo/Moses?
The D loss this game. Well, at least we'll get one win during the POs!
similarities with the 09 season where we beat Az last game of season then travel there for first week of playoffs and meet a totally different team.
hope its similar for the pack. they sleepwalk thru the 1st quarter
and were sloppy on Defense

It's to bad we didn't beat the Seahawks.
Chip on the shoulder. We'll be winning the Super Bowl this year.

IIRC, the difference is that the Cards had nothing to play for in that game. The Packers, OTOH, lost a bye.
The defense sucked today. They had a chance to stop the Vikings at the end of the game and get the ball back to Rodgers but they just kept failing. Giving up 37 to the Vikings is atrocious. The secondary had the worst game I've seen all year.
I lost my "RAH RAH." The Packers need to show me somethin'!

I surely hope that next week's game isn't as close as the GB/AZ wild card game. Give me a Badger/Nebraska run-up, please.
The Defense SUCKED TODAY:!!!!
Nah, they'll win next week, then get bitch slapped up and down the field by a team like the 49ers. Even if they do get to New Orleans, do you really see them beating a team like Denver? I sure as hell don't.quote:Originally posted by ShebPackFan:quote:Chip on the shoulder. We'll be winning the Super Bowl this year

I think they'll win prettily easily next week if the weather is decent. This was the Vikings Super Bowl. Unless Peterson goes for 250 next week, they should win by 10+. No way Ponder plays this well in an outdoor playoff game. If the game is played in a blizzard, I'd go with the Vikings ability to run.
What this loss did is make it likely they will lose in SF in the Divisional Playoff round.

Of course. You guys are acting like they knocked us out of the playoffs. Grow some balls
So is everyone who was so sure the Packers were going to beat MIN today, knock them out of the playoffs, wrap up the #2 seed, etc, etc. now going to say they'll surely beat them next week?
I sure as hell won't. Our D, not just got shredded but pounded pretty hard with a lot of minutes on the field. Now they gotta turn around in less than a week and do it again vs. AP. And Ponder suddenly looks like a poor man's AR - except harder to sack. Could be another nailbiter next week. If they lose to MIN at Lambeau...I may puke myself inside out.

Don't have that bye hangover that slows us down this year.
I really thought having Wilson and Matthews would make a difference for the defense. I think they and Raji played well...but the rest of the defense was horrible.
They can win next week, I'll pick them to win. But they better play some better ball than that.

yeah Im hoping the Vikes are mentally spent as well. the did put everything into this one and played one of their best games of the year.
I doubt theyll be able to turn around and put up 37 again. we will def need mroe turnovers on D

So now what's on the horizon with the playoffs? When we beat the Vikes are we locked into @SF or is there a chance at going to ATL?
Locked in SF the next week if the Pack wins
#3 can only play #2 in the second round.
The queens gave everything they had to win this game. I just can't see them playing this well again next week at Lambeau. The Pack always seem to respond well after a game like this.
Well, that Seattle game wound up killing them. Damnit.
Would have had that 2nd seed regardless of a loss today had that ref made the right call in Seattle. We are still living in the altered world of the fail mary.

the secondary was especially disappointing today. i thought they'd be able to bottle up Christian Ponder. I guess I was wrong.
Tramon had a terrible game. Absolutely awful. I'm still pissed off about his penalty. What a dumbass.
The penalty was stupid.. but IMO, it's not even close to his absolute unwillingness to tackle. It was so obvious he wanted no part of it. Hell, against the Vikes and AP, it would probably be beneficial to put Bush out there instead of Tramon. At least that dip**** will TRY to tackle somebody.
