Vikings' turn on top

Your day is done so go back to pushing the broom, probably the only thing you can handle without hurting yourself.
The small window of opportunity just closed on gb.
Farve gave you that window, now he is relaxing in Mississippi.
We wrestled the NFC North title from you hicks without ever playing a game, which means you losers were replaced with winning Viking fans.
Farve knew that if gb didn't make it to the Super Bowl last year, it might be another couple decades before it happens again, and even he can't play when he's 58.
The quarterback controversy has already begun in cow country, and I'm going to enjoy every minute of it.

100 yards IS containing AP! lol Just ask the Chargers. It's the big play that you try to stop. That's your strength--along with run defense. Trouble is you guys play in a dome on fake turf and just look at passing yards vs passing yards allowed--ouch! It's nearly 2 to 1. Bring that closer together and you'll start to look like champs. In the end though, injuries have a lot to say about who wins. GB was pretty healthy last season.

Not once did you hear me say the Vikings are going to win the SuperBowl. If the sports analysts want to 'crown'(Denny - lol) us the Divisional Champs, so be it, that isn't my problem. I'm a Vikings fan through and through, but I'm realistic too.

Actually Digger, Holcomb started and finished that first game. Yes Holcomb, another backup not the starter. Also, there were only 3 games of 8 last year that risked being blacked out and those would be games against Atlanta(w/out Mike Vick), Oakland(nuff said) and I can't remember the third off hand, but it wasn't that great of a team. But none the less all the rest were sold out with no problem. As for the upcoming season, with the moves that have been made, I can gaurantee you there will be no worries of blackouts again. So again I say come back when you can talk about football and have some knowledge of the game.

Realistic....its a very fair statement that you had backups playing...but at the time was Jackson the true starter? I know he started the year but struggled mightily his first few games...I know there was lots of talk about putting in Holcomb not because Jackson was hurt..but ineffective...just a point to consider. I know QB is the most important position on the field but injuries happen all over the NFL and to use injuries as an excuse doesnt fly. I am sure Rodgers won't play the full 16 and I will not use his absence as an excuse in any Pack loss

Who was talking about putting in Holcomb if Jackson wasn't hurt? Not the Viking coaches, maybe some disgruntled fans. Just a point to consider.

If the Packer's D is so solid, why did you lose the NFC championship game? Nice "solid" pass defense there with your corners, right? You lost Corey Williams now too, there goes some extra run-stuffing.
Speaking of the run, I would love for you to point out in which game you guys "contained" AP. Was it the first game where he ran against you for over 100 yards, likely even more if he hadn't gotten reduced carries in the second half, or was it in the second game when he was getting over 4 yards a carry before getting injured? If that's your idea of containment, then football as a whole should be thankful you aren't a defensive coach.
In regards to having the worst QB in the division aside from the Bears, let's see how Rodgers plays in a game he starts before you start crowning him, huh? Right now, Kitna is the best QB in the division. Rodgers isn't even close. And you may think he did well in the Dallas game, or maybe you're just spitting out what other people have said, but I don't know if you actually watched it or not.
Dallas started playing relaxed and sloppy as soon as Rodgers came out. His TD was the result of poor tackling on Dallas' part. Afterwards, they started to actually play, and you never saw Rodgers throw close to the goal line again.

It's possible, but that deal looks ripe to unravel up there. Don't think the guys in that locker room aren't whispering about it.

wow. i love when people like this start talking just because it gives me the opportunity to make you look like a moron. i just wait for my chance to pounce and here it is.
the bears have no chance next year. why? well its their entire offense. lets start with the o-line. THEY ARE GETTING TOO OLD!!! they have no WR's. they lost berrian and muhammod and brought in lloyd and booker. berrian and muhammod are both better than the two they brought in and they couldnt get the job done in chicago so why will the new WR's. they have no running back. they made a huge mistake in taking chris williams over rashard mendenhall. the bears need a running way more than they need to replace the o-line. mendenhall would of been a perfect fit for the bears offense because of his running style. and the guy is a beast just by looking at his arms. yeah they drafted forte but he will never do anything in the nfl i dont think. just by watching the little bit of film i have seen of him in college. hes horrible because he so SLOW and has no power. they have no QB to throw the ball to and your WR's are only as good as your QB and the bears recievers suck like i said earlier. as for the defense. lets go back to 06' when they went to the super bowl. that year they were unstoppable. they lost ron rivera and the defense went from the best in the league to one of the worst. so rivera was definitely your defense. but if he wasnt then explain to me how you go from being able stop goliath to not even being able to beat a seventh grade football team. they need a FS because mike brown cant stay healthy. they could use an OLB because hillenmeyer isnt the greatest but he just looks decent next to urlacher. they could use another DT. tommie harris and brian urlacher are wanting new contracts and jerry angelo is saying their getting em'. you guys just need to get angelo out of office because hes a horrible GM. you have to make a player like urlacher happy because hes one of the greatest players to play for the franchise and he is the best MLB in the league. and he is having neck surgery this offseason so that cant be good. i think they could use another CB because i dont think tillman is that good. and they could use a SS because manning is decent but not that great.
GO VIKINGS!!!

M.M. is ovewrated and Barian is decent, and its not hasrd to replace them but yes oline and qb are prob. in Chicago, but any team that plays tremendous defence has a chance to win it, it all depends on Urlachers neck health contract and health in general,,they have mike brown but hes the ben sheets of football

Uh, I'm not a Bears fan and you just proved my point... so I'm the moron? I was responding to the Bears fan who insisted they were coming in 1st. I do appreciate your Viking enthusiasm though.
