    No Kool-Aid required. We beat Chicago and Green Bay with terrible draft choices. You better hope the Vikings can never draft or you will be back in the 70’s shooting your coaches dog.

    At least you can admit your front office sucks at drafting. Not worried about the Vikings ever winning a SB. The last 2 times you made the playoffs the Vikings were 1 and done. That’s pretty awesome!!!! moon

    So do you pack fans actually trust the front office to draft a wr? I mean how many have they drafted that can’t catch or stay healthy? Your best shot is getting adams back. Even then you got love throwing errant footballs all over the place.

    I would trust the Packer front office to draft a WR, long before if I would trust the Viking front office drafting any player at any position. Have you seen the Vikings last 3 drafts. All I can say is woof!!!! The Vikings 2022 draft netted 0 decent players, the 2023 only netted Addison, and Turner in this last draft can’t even get on the field. But keep drinking the purple kool-aid and getting your hopes up for next year just to be let down again.

    Vikings hate the Packers so bad, they refuse to play for the Lombardi trophy. rotflol

    That’s hilarious, but oh so true. 60 plus years in the NFL and nothing to show for it LOL. 14-3 this year and couldn’t make it out of the first round of the playoffs against a 10-7 team. The worst part for them was not that they lost, which was awesome from my perspective, but how badly they lost. They got blown out the whole game. hah yay

    I’m curious to hear from fellow GB fans, at this stage in the early post-season, if you could personally make one major personnel move what would it be and why?

    For me I’m saying adios to Rich Bisaccia. For the first time in years (assuming we keep McManus) our kicking and punting spots are finally solid. Cool. But the rest of the special teams continue to be a cluster. Our punt return guys still field punts they should let go and let catchable punts bounce by. Our kickoff return operation doesn’t appear to have a strategy beyond “return it if you see an opportunity” which means we are constantly giving yards away. In addition to all of that, I believe his role as “assistant head coach” allows MLF to second-guess himself too much. It’s time for Matt to put his boots on and take the next step to leading this team.

    Agree on the ST coach. Don’t forget if they ever do return a kickoff and not fumble, it seems like 7 out of 10 times there will be a holding penalty. I always figured it would be yards ahead to just down the ball and start at the 30. If it were me I would make a play to move up in the draft for a top edge or wr. Those are the 2 positions I don’t believe we currently have on our team IMO. This is already the youngest team in the nfl so how many more younger players do we need? Use some draft capital to move up in the draft for a blue chip player since at pick #23 it is more of a crap shoot. I would use the draft over trading for a veteran for salary cap purposes and the fact most teams are unwilling to part with those type of players.

    Yes – Vikings are done, but as Thumper noted … we can at least relish in the fact that we swept the Packers.

    You guys need to look at the bright side.

    The Vikings broke records this year, the most notable and recent is no other team has lost more playoff games than the Vikings rotflol

    Also the only time in “the his-tree” to lose a wildcard with 14 wins

    X2 I hadn’t realized the Vikings made history last night. Good for them. toast

    Well math must not be a strong suit for Viking fans.
    Jones 7M for 8 TD’s = $875,000/TD scored.
    Jacobs 11.325M for 16TD’s = $707,812.50/TD
    Just stop.

    One played on a team that had 3 more overall wins, 3 more divisional wins, and beat the other both times they played this season. Just stop.

    And yet both teams exited in the first round of the playoffs. I guess the Vikings should have won their game being the higher seeded team one would think. That was some great coaching at the end of the game though. Even the announcers thought so.

    Jacobs had 125 more total yards on 31 more touches, and 50% more money. They are both really good players. Jones was a better value. Just stop.

    Forgot to look at the TD’s scored? Jacobs scored twice as many TD’s and those are points on the scoreboard. Just stop.

    Thoughts??

    Just threw up in my mouth a bit. However IF he would be a good mentor to JJ and didn’t cost us that much, and would promise not to whine like a school girl every play that doesn’t work out, I might think about it, maybe.

    The Viking would also have to sign the rest of his buddies too. whistling

    I was so tired on Sunday for some reason I’m not sick. I missed all of the first game. I didn’t get up for the Packer game until after the Eagle’s first TD. All I can remember from the game is it seemed like Packer players were dropping out injured left and right. They lost, and Love didn’t play well. I ended up going back to bed before the start of the Bucs game. I did get up and watch a little bit of it, but soon after, I went back to bed. I didn’t look to find out who won the night game until after I was back from rehabbing my hip in the afternoon. I know next to nothing about the Washington squad besides they have an amazing rookie QB that is money under pressure. If Washington has a D that can get stops, the Lions are beatable. Wouldn’t that be something if the toughest Division in the history of the NFL all went one and done in the Playoffs? I wouldn’t be shocked if it happens.

    I wouldn’t be too shocked either if all 3 NFC teams lose their first game in the playoffs. Detroit looks to be better coached than either the Vikings or Packers, but how soon will their luck run out with all their injuries. Not sure how many players they might get back for their next game, but one would think sooner or later all those injuries should catch up with them. If they keep winning with plugging in backups, you can expect both of their coordinators will be head coaches somewhere next season. For the rest of the NFC North, that might actually be a good thing.

    What’s Lafleur’s playoff record again?

    Looks like KOC is going to catch him.

    How is KOC going to catch MLF in the win column when he is 0-2 in playoff games? MLF doesn’t quit with over 6 minutes left in the game, unlike KOC.

    ^^^^ But the Packers manhandled the Rams in LA.

    Funny how some teams do better against others, and every year is different.

    The Vikings won “their” Superbowl this year (against the Packers), but in the end it doesn’t mean squat because they’re both golfing on the big day mrgreen

    Just like Lovie Smith with the Bears. Their season was a success if they beat the Pack but lost every other game they played. woot

    Well maybe, both our teams are out of it. I would think a Viking fan would be a little pissed off at the coaching at the end of the game. It’s like KOC gave up with over 6 minutes left in the game. Not a good look to his players I would.

    Co
    Coming from a guy that got swept by 1 year QB. rotflol have fun with that 220 million who’s completion percentage was below Danny dimes.
    Pretty sure Lefluer is getting torched right about now as well.
    Pot meet kettle.

    I will take our QB situation over the Vikings QB situation any day of the week, I have to laugh at all the hype the Queens fans are heaping on McCarthy. First off he has even played in a NFL regular season game, and you already anointing him a franchise QB. Same thing you were all saying about Darnold a couple of weeks ago LOL. Most 1st round QB never make it and looking at the other 1st round QB’s taken last year what are the odds McCarthy makes it. Slim and none IMO.

    laser does the pack even have a top receiver?

    Nope, not since Adams got traded. Got a bunch of #2 and #3’s though. Don’t think the Vikings do either. How many yards did the Jefferson and Addison get yesterday by the way? So how much good did it do to have a supposedly #1 receiver? The Vikings did score 3 FG’s yesterday against a depleted defense. Was a heck of a spanking last night by the Lions.

    Was an ugly game for sure. The only bright spot was we didn’t play all our starters the whole game, but MLF clock management at the end of the game cost us the game but it shouldn’t have come to that point though. Not going into the post season on a high note, that’s for sure. At least our top receiver didn’t go bragging that nobody could cover him like the Vikings top receiver did and then go on to catch 3 passes for a whopping 54 yards after probably being targeted over a dozen times. The Lions are the team to beat in the NFC. Not sure how you can lose so many players and still put an a** whooping on any other NFL team like they did to the Queens tonight. That Queens/lions game was sure a fun entertaining game to watch from my perspective.

    I like and can shoot my Ruger Commander .45 (1911 frame) with iron sights more accurately than I can shoot my 9mm H&K VP9. Not sure what going price is now on the Commander. I know people that had Kimbers and loved them and others that hated them and sold them.

    The Vikings have played in 4 NFC championships in my lifetime.

    I can recall 1998, 2000, 2010, and 2018.

    Yes they did lose all four.

    So what you’re saying is the Vikings are a 4 time loser instead of being a 1 time loser? That sounds soooooo much better, LOL. smash yay jester

    Couple years in Green Bay will make a guy want to quit, I can understand that. Well that and the $40 million he made in his career.

    I’m sure the Vikings will sign him, seeing how they like to sign all of the Packers castoffs. hah smash

    See DeVondre Campbell made the news again. Sounds like last season wasn’t a fluke. Embarrassing for how much these guys get to play the game and then quit on the team. Campbell surely has some issues and now will probably be out of football. What team would take a chance on a roster spot for him.

    San Francisco 49ers linebacker De’Vondre Campbell refused to enter the game when Kyle Shanahan attempted to put him in on Thursday night, Shanahan said. Campbell instead went to the locker room.

    The incident happened in the third quarter. Linebacker Dre Greenlaw went down, and Shanahan attempted to put in Campbell to replace him, but the veteran refused. “He said he didn’t want to play today,” Shanahan said.

    I’m much like riverbassman. I have my UHD93sv mounted on the console in my boat with the black box mounted on the inside of the console. I bought extra power cable and network cable and base for my Livescope setup for my ice fishing shuttle, that way you don’t need to remove and rerun all the cables in the boat when I reinstall in the spring. It takes about 30 to 45 minutes to switch from the boat to the shuttle or to go from the shuttle to the boat.

    I lived in AK for 15 years and most of the guys I worked with, including myself, the 10mm was the caliber of choice if they carried when fishing. IMHO the 10mm has better ballistics than the .45acp when looking at protection from a bear. So if one of your main reason for getting either a .45 or 10mm is for protection against a bear I would look at a 10mm. I also own a .45 Commander but if I carried when going into bear territory I took my Glock 20.

    As a completely unbiased spectator with absolutely no care about either team, I officially declare the Packers living rent free in the Viking fans head. Calling it like I see it.

    Isn’t that the truth. Vikings been in the NFL over 60 years and have squat to show for it, but somehow want to try and downplay the Packers SB wins. You can feel their pain though when talking about the Packer HOF QB’s, when they can never draft and develop a QB of their own in the past 30 years. Ponder, Bridgewater, Culpepper all in the first round, and now McCarthy. Looking at the NFL law of averages of 1st round QB’s being drafted that actually make it, McCarthy doesn’t have a very good chance at making it. Especially when you factor in how well the rest of the 2024 QB draft class is looking so far, but it is too early to really tell. They are so jealous of the Packers success and that is why they have to troll on the Packer posts since the Vikings haven’t achieved anything.

    I’m sure there’s plenty more to the story that we don’t know yet. They said they found DNA, so it won’t be long until they know the identity of the assassin. If ANYONE even remotely close to him in his family has ever done a 23 and me, Ancestry.com, etc he’ll be easily identified.

    That comment is so true. I sat on a grand jury case where this exact thing happened. It was a cold case homicide and they had dna evidence from the murder, and every year they would run the DNA to try and find a match. One year they got a match because the brother of the murderer did a 23 & me. So somehow all this DNA profiles gets shared with the government. According to the DNA expert that testified at the grand jury trial they can tell the family because both brothers had similar DNA. According to the DNA expert they could even tell that one of the grandparents was Native American, which happened to be true in their family history.
