Fixed that for you. Can you imagine the relief Wentz, Prescott, Watson, Goff, tc. all feel?

Sorry. I had thought water was pretty mainstream.
Hundley didn’t back into his first NFL win as a starting QB. He went and took it. If he backs that up Sunday things are gonna get frisky in the North.
I'll be rooting for him. It'll be interesting.
I don't think things will get "frisky," other than us GB fans feeling frisky for the playoffs. The Queens have a pretty solid hold on the North.
Last I checked - There is still 7 games left to play.
Yes, stranglehold
Minny had control of the North last year at 5-0. It’s amusing watching Packer fans getting up in a twist over a little Minny success. Rest assured the clock will hit midnight and everything will go to ****. It always does.
I just hope Minny’s run of good fortune goes on a little longer so the Viking fan train is fully loaded when the inevitable happens.
Just sayin' I don't think they'll have a collapse this year until the playoffs. They may hit a bump in the road, but until Keenum falls apart and everyone starts yelling for Bridgewater they have been very steady. Keenum has been a huge surprise.

+1 General.

Are you not familiar with the history of the Minnesota Vikings?

Viking season hitting a bump in the road. Illustrated.
Anything to avoid paying a toll! A story: a bunch of us coming through Chicago at about 2:30 a.m. Every toll we'd stop and one of us would jump out and start collecting change. I think we ended the night $32 ahead when we left. 
Yes, I'm familiar with the history of the Vikings; I've lived in the Twin Cities for almost... let's just say decades and decades. Watching them as I am forced to do, this year their defense is so stout and I don't see that imploding anytime soon. I'd give anything to be wrong, but Zimmer seems to have them on the right track. Most of all, so many other good players have gone down this year that by January it's going to be the last semi-healthy teams standing in the playoffs and the Vikings are relatively healthy, and Keenum has played way beyond his history. The Seahawks' defense is probably blown with both Sherman and Chancellor gone (Chancellor a neck--not good); TB is crashing on Winston's problematic shoulder; the Giants have imploded with no receivers left on the roster; who knows if Mariota is going to remain upright; etc., etc. Only the Rams, Eagles, and Vikings look good/healthy enough to make it to the playoffs and do some damage.
This is not a Viking thread. No need to ruin a good discussion. Appologies all.
After watching this debacle today, it is obvious Rogers made McCarthy. JMHO.

FTFY....
MM & TT have failed in the backup QB dept. How Hundley is still employed after today is a complete travesty
Only because the guy behind him is probably worse. Again, that IMO goes back to Ted.
In 2013, MM said this:
“We’re in this to win games and we haven’t won a game in five weeks,” Head Coach Mike McCarthy said. “You don’t want to put everything on one man, but I think it’s obvious how important Aaron Rodgers is to us.”
How important is he? The Packers haven’t won a meaningful game without him. That’s not an opinion, that’s a fact.
And Ted got burned by believing in MM's staff that they had something competent behind AR. No, not All-Pro or Pro Bowl. But at least a QB who could tread water. Now in 2017, low and behold, Ted's burned again.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, that's on Ted.
