I can unfortunately relate.  My Dad was gone 2 / 3 years before he actually passed.  Didn't even cry when he went, i had already done that in the years before.  Was just relieved to know that it was over for him.

Same with my

mom

Currently going through it with my dad.  He's been in a nursing home for a little over a year.  Got to see him last week (first time since Covid), didn't recognize me.  I'm blaming the mask.  Good news he still knew Mom.

Plus their 12th man was kind of flat.

vikings 12th man, on Sunday, reminded me of the mid 1990's vikings when their games would be blacked out in minnesota due to all the empty seats! Pillsbury and General Mills would bail them out, as would the Packers and their fan base when they traveled to Mpls to play the vikings in the Metrodome. Who would have thought that a pandemic would allow games, with no fans in the seats, to be aired. vikings mgmt should have thought of that earlier!

Did you know??

Only two teams in the NFC have failed to make the Super Bowl since 1978.

One is the team we are about to beat. The other we just beat last week. 

 

Both teams also had game-changing, generational talents at WR for years and never got there.

And considering da Bears have made only 2 Super Bowls  it shows how dominate in the division the Packers have been.

Dantzler played a lot against Davante. I think he played as much defending Davante, as Hill did. Spread the blame around! The only people he did not blame, for the vikings loss vs The Packers, unless I missed it, were the refs. That will probably be in their next post-loss broadcast. The vikes play the Colts next. Phillip Rivers does not have a great record against the vikings, but that was when he was in San Diego. I am hoping for a change in River's luck for Sunday.

McCarthy?

I can’t remember the last time an NFL team replaced its two starting corners and a key backup in one offseason.  Not to mention two stalwarts on that DL. 

Veteran QBs will have their way with the MN pass defense.  I mean, if not for a few drops GB would have dropped 50 on those punks.   That is not a good defense.

On offense, their OL is still average at best and Diggs can’t take pressure off of Thielen.  And they still have Kurt Cousinks. 

That’s an 8-8 or 9-7 team at best.

How quickly we forget. 1999 Packers:  Edwards, Vinson and McKenzie.  On second thought I want to forget this. 

It wasn't Jordan Love carving them up. That was Aaron frickin Rodgers.....and like 2011 Rodgers too.

If the receivers play perfect, the Packers drop not 50...but SIXTY on the purple. Guess you all forgot Adams drop in the EZ. Wasn't just MVS. Davante had such a great day I can see how it was overlooked.

Cousins had a 15.9 QB rating, 3 INTs, 3 sacks, one for another Safety, zero TDs. I am wondering why they say the Vikings suck? Anybody? 0-2. Suck it Vikings fans!

Well, if they decide they need to move on from Kirk after the year, they can do it with only a 41 million dead cap charge 

He has a 45 million dollar cap charge in 2022, and will count 10 million in dead space if they move on.

Kirk Cousins has already made 141 million dollars and is guaranteed another 31 million.

He's even better than Sam Bradford at making bank without really producing.

McKenzie was a solid CB for several years. Vinson netted us Ahman Green. Antuan Edwards was trash.  

The Vikings are so fucked.  They are completely leveraged with the cap situation as well.
