Props to Packers!

I was going to say...if the Packers had to win, I don't think Viking fans could be any happier with WHO we beat and HOW we beat them....

By the way, I got a call at 6:30 last night asking me if I wanted to go to the game...barely made it for kickoff, but I was there. Excellent game. And Longwell scored enough points for me to win my fantasy game this week.

a bad rush d!!! javon kearse is very good and especially thier tackles simon and rayburn. and no defense from the eagles is pretty crazy i dont know howu figure that.

20th in the league, I don't consider good. 120.7 yards/game, I don't consider good.

Also, the packers are 8th in the league in rushing offense averaging 135 yards a game.

The Eagles Defense has been playing very well LATELY though.

**VKG4LFE** · 11-30-2004, 06:46 PM

All I'm sayin' is Tiki ran for over 100 yards, with a rookie QB starting.

looking a bit more ahead though if all goes well and we beat the bears and the eagles beat the packers we still have to play the seahawks which are a decent opponent. And as for the pack...well they play the lions which arnt so hot anymore so my question is how confident do you feel in the vikings seahawks game?

for winning a football game without the refs giving them ALOT of help

Martz gave them all the help they needed. When is he going to learn he isn't as tricky as he thinks he is.

So true. Bad play calling and turnovers did them in.

Yeah, the Packers looked very very good. The only thing that I'm concerned about is the pass defense. Bulger threw for over 405 yards. However the packers had pressure on enough plays to stop the rams. I hope we can do the same against the eagles.

You got that right. If I remember what I read correctly, Bulger set a new record for passing yards against the Pack with 448(not 100% sure), but the old record was held by Cunningham from 1998.
