All the guys who got injured came back in, thank Heavens.

Good job, guys. You're clearly the cream of the NFC North crop.

[Nitschke-Hawk]

I wish we would've traded up somehow for Adrian Peterson.

But Childress looks to be pretty dumb. Peterson killed us in the fist half, over 100 yards on only ten carries, then he has a big kick return, and he gives Peterson 2 carries in the 2nd half. WTF?

[JF4]

Not that great of a game by the Packers but good enough to get the win which is all that really matters. They let the Vikings hang around for way too long and gave them an oppurtunity to get a win they didn't deserve.

We were consistantly able to move the ball down field but we just couldn't finish drives. I keep saying that if we want to do something in the playoffs this is gonna have to change. That and we're gonna need to develop some sort of run game. Deshawn Wynn was unimpressive today and i'd like to see Vernand Morency get some more touches next week. Hopefully a combo of Jackson and Morency can be the answer.

Shout out to Jon Ryan for that fake punt. Stick him at RB.

Just another reason he needs to be fired. Just like the Chiefs game last week. Great first half, invisible second half.

Yea very stupid indeed, now I see why most Viking fans want him fired.

I really like how our defense is stepping up and finishing games for us with takeaways. That's the mark of a really good defense.

Yeah I would agree that Morency should get some more carries next week. But think about it, maybe it was best that he barely got any carries today basing that off the fact that he isn't 100% yet(I'm assuming) and that their stellar run defense would just endanger his near future.

And that fake punt was amazing, all of the guys that I was watching it with were going nuts during it(including the Vikings fans...).

A win's a win and it was a good one, but I need to see a little more to know we got it.

Grades and analysis
QB- A+ Favre played another great game

RB- C Things could get better with Morency, but not yet. Grant and Morency made a few good plays recieving, but that was it.

WR- B+ The recievers did their job.

TE- B+ Donald Lee played great IMO and Bubba almost caught a tough pass.

OL- B Same story the last 4 weeks in a row. Good pass. Bad run

DL- B+ Great pass rush, but the run could have been better. There was good penetration, but we allowed AD to cutback too much.

LB- D I thought they played terrible. Especially Brady and AJ.

DB- B- Outside of Bush, play was solid. We got lucky that we didnt lose Al, Atari and Collins in one night.

Im looking forward to the packer-bears next week. I hope all those bears defensive players are still out, though I would be curious to see how the 2 teams match up when healthy. Its starting to look like the division match up to see will be packers-lions. The pack would stick a fork in the bears season with a win next week and it would be nice to have them out of the way pretty much for good this year. Then it would be on to the lions. One game at a time though. Im sure next weeks game will be tough enough.
8 IN A ROW EVEYBODY....EXCELLENT. Theres no fluke with that.

Yeah you can definately tell they're trying to ease him back into the lineup.
