Season opener!!!!!! MN vs GB

[mnwild]

Ya wanna know whats great about this whole thing NOBODY is ripping on the defense. All I have been hearing all week from the Quenns fans is Allen this Allen that Allen he is gonna have 2 or 3 sacks the DE line is going to be all over Rodgers he is going to be running his tail off all, never happened.

Very happy Pack came away with a win, Rodgers did his job and he's only going to get better.

[LMITOUT]

How much did they pay Allen?

[Trainman]

Huge upset for the Packers! Might give them the confidence they need to contend this year. Vikings will rebound. Until that pick, I was sure they were going to pull this one out. Should've run a draw on 1st down instead of spiking it. Packers D was really back peddling and got exposed.

[treble]

Jared Allen doesn't have to have 3 sacks per game to make his presence felt. He got held, drew a false start penalty, and an illegal formation call because the tackle wasn't on the line of scrimmage. They didn't run the ball his way. Stats in the books don't mean everything. There are other things that players do that help defenses get off the field.

[Twins 57 Fan]

Stats dont tell everything. But Tallies in the win column do.

Go Pack.

Good to see Rodgers get his feet wet. Favre hasn't ran that fast in 7 years. He was almost Michael Vick like. Can't possibly replace Brett Favre, but if Rodgers can get the job done it will sure make it easier.

Nobody get too excited either way, there are 16 more weeks until the playoffs. Lot of football to be played.

[LMITOUT]

Maybe Allen could plan O-line and help there too.

[bassNspear]

all i have to say is that the V will never get anywhere with TJ as our QB........PERIOD

[Sandmannd]

The OL was horrible tonight but TJ has some passes he should have made. Six yards in a half is pathetic. You have a stud RB and can't utilize him because you can't open up the passing game. Defense was just OK for me tonight. Special teams blew a big one and the refs missed the catch for sure. How do you not call that a catch watching instant replay? At least it was only the first game. They will be 0-2 though after the Colts roll on them.

[bassNspear]

the colts might have a hard time with them with the run. But that also goes back to TJ and if hes not throwing the ball well, then there not going to be able to run the ball ither.

[Stratosman]

How many screens did they attmempt to the best RB in football, what is with the play calling? I know it's early but it's hard not to be critical when you see the same thing year after year and game after game. Oh well I'm over it.

[harvey lee]

No, there is plenty of blame to go around but TJ just is not that good of a QB.

Most of this poor showing can be placed on the shoulders of Mr Childress. maybe with 2-3 more years of poor coaching the Vikes will dump him. All these issues can go on the back of BC.

[PierBridge]

We lose 1 game by 5 points on the road and now the season is over so we should cut T-Jack, release Allen, Fire Chilly, and find a New owner!

Alrighty then!....

[DTro]

Vikes let one slip tonight

There's the understatement of the year.

[DTro]

TJack has had his chance to rally this team. Time and time again he's proven that he can't pull it off. How many dump passes were right at the feet of the intended receiver?

Can one player make a difference? Well I ask you this. Had Rodgers or Farve been taking the snaps for the Vikes would there been a different outcome?

I say yes.

[dan z]

did not watch but two min of the game the only reason I turned it on to see how bad we were gettin beat. wished the twins were on but watched toughest jobs instead

[TommyJ33]

Fire Childress NOW! He won't bench or get rid of Tavaris.

We need a quarter back!

[Sandmannd]

I agree Tom. TJ isn't all to blame. Play calling was not good. How do you have drives like the one in the 3rd and get a field goal? If they don't get a winning record this year and hit the playoffs I think Ziggy will get rid of Chilly and Tjack. I don't think he's like all the other owners we've had. He wants to win and spends the money to do so. It is week 1, maybe we can get out heads out. They did make inprovements in the second half. There just wasn't a lot to cheer for last night.

How many passes were over thrown to receivers. He either over throws or under throws.

[TommyJ33]

Its the same thing year after year with these clowns. Get a quarterback that has some poise. He is terrible and Childress is so effen stubborn he won't bench Jackson. Childress play calling is diffenately subject too.

[Wookiee]

The ref's decided that game with two non calls on interference on third downs. The vikes played much better in the second half.

[Windy City]

Hey Pier,

Are these guys the same ones that are jumping on and off and on and off the Twinks bandwagon? LOL

Windy

[walleyes12]

man with all this negativity, Next weekends game's TV Ratings is going to be way down, but If I was a betting man all you will be infront of your TV Next week either jumping on or off the band wagon. Tough Game, lets not hang everyone on the team, next weeks another game!

[Scott K]

I have to say I was a little less then impressed by last nights game. There was alot of blame to go around, defense line didnt stop the run, couldnt get in Rodgers face, the backs couldnt cover. Offense line couldnt protect Jackson, Jackson was throwing balls at their shoes, or was way off, wich could be from the recievers, some dropped passes. Speacial teams gave up some big plays. Coaching made some bad calls, (4th and inches, we should have went for that!) There were some bad ref calls against us.

But beyond them few things they looked good

I am not giving up, I will still watch as many games as I can, and I think they are a better team then what we seen last night.

Bring on INDY!!!

Go Vikes!!!!

[bottomfeeder]

It brings me great satisfaction to watch the mighty Pack beat the lowly Queens for the fifth straight time.

In Green Bay the tourch has been passed and Green Bay still has the best the quarterback in the NFC Central.

Same 'ol queens. Sad really.

Nice to see Windy still clinging to that championship ring. Time to move on or do I need to bust out some title-town on you.

Go Pack!

[PierBridge]

Windy

I thinks it's wee bit tougher "whinier" crowd in here I'm afraid!...

[mnwild]

Very nice satisfaction in watching the game last night. Didn't hear Allen's name once and the Queens brought this guy in for a better pass rush line. Doesn't help either when you have a QB who shouldnt even be in the league guy looked horrible, Chilly needs to go also.
