Just spreading some green bay gospel for y'all. Any other packers fans around? Since the regular season ends in like 3 days, I can't be bothered to read all 149 pages of this thread!! ^^;

Slaughter? I think Green Bay will win the game, I think it will be highly contested however. I don't see Adrian going for 200 plus so thats not exactly setting the World on fire with that prediction.

Well, the slaughtering will all depend on Crosby's foot, I suppose. We will definitely have more possession time and do way better in the red zone. Score could be something like 34-10 I reckon.

We shall see. Score could be something like 9-7 also.

Your guess is as good as mine, all I can tell you is that I'm mad excited about it. ESPN America (Europe style) is playing the game at 11pm where I am, and god knows I'll be downing coffee and eating a million slices of pumpkin pie to deal with all the stress. I just can't bear a loss right before the playoffs, especially if we have to play the goddamn 9ers.



Note: I erroneously presumed this game would be in Lambeau, which has since damaged my extreme optimism...

Are those the same guys that let him rush for 210 last game? I know 8-9 in the box didn't work out so hot last time.Repeat performance of that and he has the record.

I don't know why your sure packers will win time of possession. Vikings have home field advantage and really only throw it on 3rd down.

Going to come down to who scores first. If the pack gets to an early 14 point lead the vikings aren't designed to come back from a deficit and will lose, but if vikes get ahead their pretty hard to beat. Didn't allow the texans one touchdown last week.

See my previous note. I was all hyped up thinking it was a home game for us. But yeah I'm still sure that we will win. And I sure as hell wish I could watch the game with someone other than my clueless Turkish roommate. At least there's beer.

Yeah you sure called that one....

Anyway I'm just disgusted with Dallas and Romo and Garrett. Its the same story every year and it stays true to life today. On the biggest of stages Tony Romo just can not execute and chokes every time. I dont care how many of Aikmans or Staubachs records or franchise records he breaks, he is a choke artist. Rg3 playing hurt showed more poise and mental toughness than the seasoned vet Romo. Shanahan out game planned Garrett and his team executed pretty well mos t of the night. The blitz killed Dallas all night long and the option RG3 was running was just confusing Demarcus Ware and the rest of the Dallas D. They couldn't really find an answer for Morris and it just opened things up for RG3. Its time for Dallas to make some big changes and I'm not sure what good it will do as long as Jerry Jones is the owner. However it needs to start with aquiring a new QB and head coach and GM to overlook the process. Get rid of Miles Austin and Rob Ryan while your at it. Its just embarassing to be a Cowboys fan anymore...its pathetic.

I think Cowboys go out and get a nice rookie prospect to groom for the future this year. Romo train is coming into the station. How may years of Romo choking can a team actually stand? Swallow your pride and get a new QB Jerry.

[Bloozcrooz]

Yeah they need to somehow look into getting some first round picks and try to draft a franchise QB. The Romo era has been a disappointing failure for years now on in. See what you can get for Miles Austin and Sean Lee and some of the other Dallas pansies that cant ever stay healthy or perform well anymore.

However congrats to your niners on making the post season.
