+1. Action shots are prefered.

The Packers still looked shaky in multiple aspects of the game, but it was a W they had to have. Unreal win by Minnesota. I went to drop a deuce and I come out just in time to see the final score. Freakin' Queens.

Is it just me or does the win today feel really empty cause of the Favre Td

It feels empty to me because we still didn't play particularly well.

Agreed. I fear for Rodgers' life next week.

Yup.

I was watching the game with two god damn Viking fans too. When the 49ers got the ball back I was screaming at the TV. The Vikings have the best run defense in the league, the 49ers have a beat up O-Line and minus their star runningback. One first down and the game is over. What do they do? Three straight runs. I was begging for a bootleg option run/pass.

Instead they punt and as soon as that happened everyone looked around and agreed that of course the Vikes were gonna go the length of the field and win. To to it in that fashion.....ugh.

As for the Packers, I don't think they looked bad. The offense woke up in the second half and the defense hunkered down when they had to. I thought the play-calling finally got better once they stopped running on first down. Bishop made his case to get on the field more. Next week is gonna be a war.

We've had two RB's rush for over 100 yards the last two weeks and now we face the best in the NFL, who's coming off a subpar game. Going to be a tough one next week.

It has totally tarnished my day as well. In addition to utterly despising the Vikings more than any other professional sports team, one game in the NFL can make such a huge difference because of the short schedule. If we are fighting for the division with the Vikes (that may be a big if given how mediocre we have looked), this game could really hurt us.

Like I said above, having the 'Queens win in that fashion is almost as bad as the Pack losing.

I also don't like that now they are going into our game next week on a HUGE emotional high instead of coming off a disappointing loss.

[MickeyDavis]

Bengals/Steelers game is great.

[MickeyDavis]

Freakin' Bears are going to win too.

[trwi7]

Now I don't feel so bad about losing to Cincy. Bengals just took the lead with 15 seconds left. Steelers will score on a fluke play as time expires.

[Simulack]

The Bears are very lucky to be ahead, the Seahawks have blown so many scoring opportunities.

[LUKE23]

Bengals look pretty good.

[Ayt]

Benson looks like a new man.

As far as the Packers, I'd love to see Barnett benched in favor of Bishop this week. I don't care if he's still coming back from an injury, his poor play has been crippling to the team.

[rilamann]

Yea,watching the Bengals beat the Steelers made me feel a little bit better about last week as well.

A Vikings loss could have really topped off what would have been a great day,but with a Packer win and the Bengals beating the Steelers it's still a pretty solid day for us.

If we can beat the Vikings Monday and be on top of the North at 3-1 going into the bye we'll be in a solid position to still make a run at more than just a wild card.

[Ayt]

LMAO. I just realized it was Mark Roman guarding Lewis on that last second TD for Minny. What a worthless play by him.

[Thunder Muscle]

I think the Pack have things to clean up, but overall it was a nice bounce back win. Really never felt at any point that they were going to lose the game. It was good to see the offense get going a little bit.

The Vikings game was gross. I almost wanted to throw up watching the ending. Overall Favre was sh*tty today though from what I heard. And AP was held in check for the 2nd straight week - which could be a bad thing for us. I really hope to beat these guys next week, but its gonna be a tall order.

Well is everybody ready for the circus this week...?

[mnstinks]

anybody notice how the Steelers DB's were clutching and grabbing the Bengals WR's on the last drive? No flags. If Chuck and Al did that we would have been flagged a bunch of times in that game.

Yeah I noticed that. In the end zone Ike Taylor clearly grabbed Henry (I think) twice without a call.
