Packers vs Vikings

[SkunkedAgain]

How did it take this long for a thread like this to start?

The Vikings put together a good game against the Packers a few weeks ago. Ponder now has two starts under his belt and Minnesota is building upon a road win. The Packer's offense is unbelievably good but the defense is porous. The Packers are beatable but no one has done it yet.

My brain says that it will be another close game with Ponder bringing the Vikings within reach at the end, but my gut says that the Pack will win by at least two scores at home. Thoughts?

We can't give Rodgers the amount of time to throw the ball as we did in the first game.

So I'll throw out for starters that we definitely need more pressure there.

Marshall Newhouse has a few games under his belt as well which helps, he was in his 1st game or 2nd game starting against Jared Allen they lock Allen down and give Newhouse some help and i see a high scoring game like last week.

Packers 38

Vikings 23

And it won't feel that close. vikings will get destroyed in all aspects.

I really hope i'm wrong.

I see the Vikes with the upset. Taking the unbeaten Packers down for their first loss of the season. 31-28 Vikes

I really dont know where that prediction came from, I havent picked the Vikes yet this year. But chalk it up in the win column for the Vikes!

[crappiebuster]

I predict the Pack gets near 50points. And the Viqueens will be stuck at around 21 if theyre lucky.

[Born2Fish]

I seem to remember people predicting a Packers blowout in the first meeting...that ended up being a close game. I think this one will be close too...with the Vikings ending the perfect season....31-28.

[flipper]

I would sure predict a high scoring game. I have to give the edge to the Packers. 45 to 33.

[Steve Foss]

If the Pack can shut down AP, or even contain him to under 80 yards, I think it's lights out for the Vikes. (Crossing fingers here.)

[LMITOUT]

49-2.

[Antero]

If the Pack can stop #69 and keep #12 upright and in the pocket the Pack wins easily. However, that may not happen and my guess is a close GB victory, say 28-17.

[RiverFish]

Packers win. The Pack will lose this year, but to a good team. The Vikes are just plain terrible.

[Steve Foss]

49-2.

Yeah, but what happens in the second quarter?

[FISHINGURU]

Seems like a trap game for the Pack to me. At home undefeated against a Vikes team they should blow out. It will be funny if the Vikes come into Lambeau and give the Pack their first loss.

Not very funny at all.

Although, if the Pack are going to lose to a division rival this year, I'd much rather it be the Vikes than Detroit or Chicago. One or two losses to those teams could come back to haunt the Pack come playoff time if the last half of their season goes somewhat downhill.

[Scott K]

49-2.

You really think the Packers will get a safety?

[reinhard1]

that was a great comback and very funny. GO Vikes. time for the cheeseheads to loose a game. good luck.

[solbes]

Miserable season, but a win in Lambeau would great. Go Vikes!

It's MN/WI weekend.

I'm going Badger Football, Gopher Hockey, and Vikings for the win.

[Jim Hudson]

Am hoping to see a stellar game, with the Pack coming out ahead..

Glad I got tickets to this one - always fun to watch this rivalry from the stands..

[grizrunner]

The Pack will win, but it's hard to put a score to this game.

The only thing I know for sure is that Robison will be holding his nads at some point.

[Chad Peterson]

It is always a dog fight with these teams, but Packers will win at home. 35-24 Pack.

This is a crazy crazy league. Anything can happen. We have the Bills, 49'ers and Bengals all atop their divisions (who seen that), then we seen the Saints put up 62 one week- only to be beaten by a very very bad Rams team with some QB noones ever heard of the next. The North Division any team has the potential to beat any other

[mrklean]

Gonna be a heck of a Monday night game

Packer fan.

Vikings fan.

A Vikings’ fan was driving around the Lambeau Field in a sweat because it was 5 minutes to kickoff time and couldn't find a parking place.

Looking up toward heaven, he said "Lord, take pity on me. If you find me a parking place, by golly, I vill go to church every Sunday for the rest of my life, and I vill treat my lovely vife Lena like a lady, and by yingles I promise to give up beer even during the Vikings games."

Miraculously, a parking spot appeared. The Vikings’ fan looked up to heaven again and said, "Never mind Lord. I yust found one."
