    3 hours of life i will never get back , special teams bad , no doubt. But how many 3 and outs did the offence have ? Packers got lucky in a number of games this season to get to the play offs . Luck ran tonight , Packers over rated ? Most definitely !

    Hopefully we will see less of Rodgers in those awful State Farm commercials.

    I wonder what Aarons excuse will be this time.

    Probably woke cancel culture.

    Couple of fun games yesterday! Football is more fun to watch in the snow too. Tough night for Rodgers and Lafleur. Basically no offense after the first drive. Rodgers didn’t target another WR besides Adam’s until part way thru the 3rd. I wouldn’t anoint Jimmy G and Shanahan either, they didn’t do much either with Deebo/Auyik/Kittle, but they did enough on the last drive and special teams won the game.

    I read that Green Bay hadn’t played a team with a winning record since November and hadn’t played at all in 3 weeks. Tough to stay in playoff game shape when all you play is poor opponents for a month and a half.

    Interesting that both teams that had a bye looked sluggish.

    I had picked the Pack but only because they had a quarterback. I knew the San Fran defense was good and they had a good enough offense, I just didn’t think much of Jimmy G. Still don’t.

    The special teams cost Green Bay the game at home. I’m happy Erin swirled down the pipe again. Even had they won I truly believe they would have gotten beat next week by a better team, either Brady or LA.

    Packers get to tee ’em up now. Maybe they can play a few rounds with the Vikings guys.

    My last prediction I’m sticking with is this was Erins last game as a Packer. The Love fest starts next season.

    That was the first game jimmy played below 40 degrees, and it was well below 40, I think it was 7. I didn’t watch the game I took the kids out to the movie theater. And got updates.

    Pack should have won that one, AR has seemed moody and mopey all season. They of course play in an easy division, everyone thinks that’s such a great advantage but when you just cruise control your way to the playoffs you probably do not have quite the right mindset to put away tough teams.

    I disagree. The division is tough enough. Not playing last week hurt. But, don’t forget the Packer offense walked down the field like a hot knife through butter that first drive. San Fran adjusted and with Bosa they have the better defense of the two teams although the San Fran secondary is suspect. I only remember the one long pass to Jones where they took a shot deep.

    It was a well played game with a couple of special teams mistakes that turned the tide.

    It’s -25 this morning here on the border, but life is good today!

    After a week of having to hear every pundit rave about how awesome Rodgers and the Packers are in the cold…well…they weren’t. You can only lean on the playing conditions so hard.

    All credit to SF, it looked like a blowout in the making during that opening drive, but then they totally locked it down.

    The Central is tough enough Dutch? The pack is the ONLY team with a winning record. Detroit (who the pack plays twice) has a winning percentage of .206. With everyone playing everyone in the division its hard to believe all the teams but the Pack are below 500.

    When the North division play each other… any team can win. They were 1-1 against the lowly Vikings this year.. and the Lions beat them !

    Poetic – Aarogant Rodgers one and done. Great game by this years MVP pick, not. He will win MVP and its not even one of his own top 5 years. That award is ridiculous.

    NFC North is soft, but that’s not an excuse. Brady played in the worst division in football for 15 years, and he managed many Superbowls, and wins.

    Pack is $45M over the cap, see you later, the run is over.

    I’ve been saying that for 30 years…never happens..Rodgers will be back with the Pack and they’ll be winning division titles for the next 5 years.

    Pains me to say it, but the Packers are just a way better organization than the Vikes are..

    The 49ers didn’t even draft Aaron Rodgers and he still gave them 4 playoff wins, amazing. rotflol

    I only really caught the first half of the Bengals/Titans game, but while everyone was excited to see Derrick Henry return, it’s almost like Cincy knew that too and schemed for him. Seemed (in the parts I saw) that they kept the box pretty full and by the time he was hitting the line of scrimmage, second-level defenders were already there. Had to see that coming, Tannehill his been adequate but you scheme for Henry and make Tannehill beat you. Worked out well for Cincy.

    That game itself was a fun defensive game to watch, as the Titans were just getting after Burrow all game. The Bengals made a big splash by drafting Chase but they’ll certainly need offensive line help to sustain their success.

    Pack is $45M over the cap, and Rodgers is going to make somewhere near $45M next year against the cap. Keep the team together and go with Love, let Aarogant go to greener pastures, ha ha!!!!!

    I am not saying the Vikes are in any better position, they are like $11M over the cap with an under .500 team and talent holes all over the team. A new coach and GM cannot change that either.

    well that was about as disappointing as being a Viking season ticket holder.

    You sure about that?

    Dating back to 2011 after rodgers won a SB the packers regular season record is 118-57-2 and they went to the playoffs 9 times.

    During that time the Vikings were 90-85-2 and went to the playoffs 4 times.

    Nearly every single season the packers were favored to win it all and they have had one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game.

    Whats more disappointing when your genius child who has all the talent in the world becomes a drug addict and throws his life away or when your your other boy who never had much potential does what we pretty much expected him to do anyway?…

    I wonder in Rogers kind of “intentionally” didn’t play his best to stick it to the packers organization?? Makes you think. He’s surly got nothing to lose.

    I don’t think his ego would allow that.

    While I doubt he would throw the game on purpose he doesn’t impress me as being much of a team guy.

    Him walking down the tunnel after the loss with NOBODY around him I thought was telling. Other than business friends (Adams) does he have many teammates who would be considered friends? Cousins gives me the same impression.

    Apparently the Packers only had 10 players on the field when the Niners kicked the game-winning field goal?

    Makes it a little tougher without a full team playing. Considering the Niners had already blocked a FG and a punt, that seems like a huge blunder on their part if they wanted to block a kick themselves.

    From a Vikings fan, that sounds like a something the Vikings would do, not the packers! Haha

    Quite a finish in Tampa. Rams blow a 20-3 halftime lead and then tally a walk off FG.

    So far all the home teams have lost this round on final second field goals. Makes for some entertaining football.

    Fun game.
