The Vikings king in the NFC North?

I forgot all about this thread!!! It would be fun to go back and point out all the sh** talkers and laugh at them, but who has the time?
So here is to all the "nice" viking fans. Good game, the Vikes kept it close, better luck next week, no worries it is only week one, your Dline is still good just got out coached, I hope TJax takes 100% of the snaps this year.
Now here is to all the other Ahole sh** talkers- you were wrong, but that is okay because everyone makes mistakes. You talk trash and that is okay too because it is football and there should be a certain level of trash talking involved:) I do have one question though....was it hard to watch the Pack win and Rodgers come out and play well? If I was a Vikes fan I would be very very disappointed maybe even upset.

I was kinda hoping EVERYBODY forgot about this thread. lol

I guess I'm one of those Sh** talkers...

In my own defense, you guys (Packers Fans) will remember, I hope, that I said all along I would have rather faced Farve than Rodgers.
The guy is going to be a real good NFL QB.

At any rate, good win Green Bay. See you in November (Where the refs won't hand you game.)
Had to say it.

Yes Fran, It does!

What can I say? You got me! lol

You guys are in SO much trouble in November.

Could it be that Chad Clifton is merely a superior athlete to Jerod Allen? That makes 2 games in a row where Cliffy rendered Allen a nonfactor. I'm not afraid of the Vikes, not afraid of the Bears- and after this Sunday, you'll all see just how futile the Lions are Sunday after Sunday, year after year. The Packers are still atop the NFC "Norris"- and its just a matter of time before the so called "credible" pundits admit it. "Bump, bump, badada bump! GO PACK GO!!!"

Lot of dreamers on this thread. . .

Clifton is just a superior holder. ESPN highlighted his blocking with 3 clips. In 2 you could see him holding Allen's jersey. The 3rd clip was the arm drag take down that he got flagged for. ESPN highlights his blocking by showing a play he was flagged for! Not very smart editing by their production crew.

Bottom line I saw was Allen bull rushing Clifton who struggled. What saved his but was the very quick release of Rodgers. I was impressed at how quick he got rid of the ball. Think back to the game and try to tell me plays where he hung in the pocket with lots of time. You can't! The pocket was quickly collapsing each time but Rodgers saved the Olines butt. Normally a QB buys diner for the line. This time they need to divvy up the week with each guy taking a turn buying him dinner all week.

Rodgers, not Clifton got the better of Allen

hate to tell you guys this but while we are having a pissing contest between the vikings and packers,the bears played better and looked better than both of us. we will split games with the packers but the bears worry me

I couldn't agree more. If Childress or whomever is doing the play-calling doesn't change we'll be fresh meat for the Bears ("3rd and 1. Jackson from the shotgun!" ... give me a break!).

being a Packer fan living in Mn every year the same Vikes on top blah blah blah. better hope andrian peterson holds together. with jackson still iffy and Gus "bang the head in end zone" ferotte don't get too excited yet. remember atlanta a few years back. 1 loss for vikes then down in the dome. that was with Randy "i now have no QB" Moss and retired Dante"love boat" culpepper

Yep, see you in November (In the Met, on turf, not that soggy cow pasture you guys call a field.)

And like always, we'll kill ya!
lol

Vikings 28
Green Bay 21

McCarthy played it way too conservative the last couple drives. Way too conservative. They were ahead by one score with like 4 minutes to play.

Biqueens, paper champions of the off season.

All this trash talking, excuse making, and senseless stats, the bottom line is the Queens are 0-5 over the last two and now 2008 seasons. Why don't you simply wait until the BIQUEENS prove it on the field and then come back and talk? It might be a very long time but it is the most sensible approach.

Let me guess, A Raider fan?

LOL you viking fans are hilarious

every year you guys read an off season article and its always the same thing "OMG we're going to the super bowl becuase a writter said so"

and the "just wait till we play the packers" then when you guys get beat its "just wait till next time"

every time is just wait till next time... just face the facts...articles dont win you football games...and obvisouly getting every top free agent during hte offseason doesnt either AHHAH

GO PACKERS 2-0 and in first place

vikings 0-2 tied for last :D

I told you all along. Jared Allen has a long way to go to the 20 sacks most of you predicted he would have playing the with Williams' boys. You are hacks.

That same flux capacitor also have new england going 0-16 and had Tavaris Jackson winning the season MVP?

Definitely time for a QB change. The Vikes played great. Their inability to pass & move the chains cost them the game.

Not a Raider fan, are you still a BIQUEEN fan or are you going to upgrade to a professional football team. The Queens are 0-2 in case you missed today's game

0-2

Minnescrotum Viqueefs
Pre-season Superbowl Champions
1967-Present

THIS JUST IN....."The Vikings bandwagon is preparing for major evacuations as the possibility for even more disappointment is forecasted for the remainder of the season." I can see a complete meltdown down by the Vikes fans if they go 0-4 which is looking very possible right now!

I am not surprised to see them 0-2 and I won't be surprised to see them 0-4 if that were to happen. They have a tough schedule right now and just can seem to make enough big plays to win games. The Vikes are not horrible just in the midst of an identity crisis or something. The secondary still sucks for the most part even with the pressure on the QB and where the hell were Berrian and Rice--NO CATCHES?
