Question...

Does Favre get credit for this win like last?
DL?

huh?
Statistically yes, it will be a win.
As for waht we think?
Yes, I'd say if we didn't have Favre, this would have been a very different game.

Great crowd as well! I wish I had picked this game as one of my games to attend this year.
Hats off to you making the noise.

Only issues I had: run the ball on 3rd down with 3:10 to go and no GB timeouts left. Don't need any more points at that point and stopped the clock for them in an obvious punt situation anyway.

Also, don't take the TO after 2nd down before the half. Could have given them 3 bc of that. After a 3rd down, you do that, then send everyone for a blocked kick, hope for a bad snap, etc.

I don't mind that call, although find a better place to throw it.
Our run game wasn't doing anything, a medium pass for a first down would have been nice.

Yeah.. We missed out.
But I was at the tailgate today and was just talking about you!

Defense let up at the end and kinda brought down what was otherwise a great 2nd half defensive performance. JA is the best pass rusher we had in awhile, and once again...Winfield is a BEAST! On offense-I was opposed to bringing Favre aboard, but I am starting to appreciate him alot more. Because on a night when Peterson was bottled up, Farve put it on himself and had an awesome game. Sidney Rice also had a good game.

Doesn't matter....potential reward on that call doesn't outweigh potential risk (stopping the clock) up 10. Run game wasn't doing anything, true; but we have the guy who, more than anyone else in the league, can rip one off for 40 yards and ice it anyway, and if he doesn't, you're under 2:30 and punting up 10.

Hope it was nothing bad! lol

We will be up for the Seattle game and all the playoff games at the very least.

Farve was on fire, The fans were going nuts, and we got the win. God it's great to be a Vikings fan baby. Take that Pack!!!!!!

I'm at a bar her in Tallahassee, FL and there was so many Packers fans here. Couple Vikes fans aslo, so I wasn't out number. Man, I wish I was at the dome tonight. It looked jam packed on TV.

Only thing I didn't like tonight was the play we got out of our FS and SS. Williams was all over the field missing tackles, and Johnson was nowhere to be found.

Who won this game?
1. Allen, who easilly had the game of his life.
2. Rice, catching a touchdown and making sure the pack didn't get the ball at the end of the game.
3. Farve, who clearly had a better game then Rogers.

Skol!
