The “Red” series movies are good.

I do find it interesting they havent extended Kwesi yet.

If you look at his drafting record, it might be the reason he hasn’t been resigned yet. You can’t be a contender without hitting on some draft picks which are much cheaper than signing higher priced veterans.

Is Darnold signed?

No, and that’s the beauty of it. We will probably sign Danny Dimes for $10M a year, have him outperform your $55m/year QB, again. Before turning it over to our rookie franchise QB, who will probably outperform your $55M/year flop also. But yes congrats on the SB 14 years ago, and 28 years ago with 3 Franchise QB’s over 35 years. GrEaT SuCcEsS. I will give you credit on your consistency of one point of smack talk.

I will take GB’s SB success (4 count them 4 SB trophies) over the Queen’s SB success any day. How many trophies in your SB case. Bet it’s a big FAT ZERO. So where are the stat’s on your franchise rookie QB. How many games has he won? Oh that’s right, he’s won as many games as KOC has won playoff games.

Yeah, by a wide margin, and ours was a journeyman fill in, while yours is the Franchise QB for years to come!

Is Darnold signed? As far as I know he is a FA or gonna cost you $40M+ a year to sign. Well there goes your salary cap LOL. Guess you could always start the one legged rookie QB, and then if you’re lucky enough to make the playoffs next year your HC will be 0-3!!! Chokers always gonna choke.

It’d be a nice step up from their current QB!

And the Vikings QB is better? Heck of a playoff game he had!!! Vikings one & done again, and your HC is 0-2 in the playoffs!!!

I don’t think anyone is naive enough to believe you will be getting $$ coming your way, when we are in debt like $39T. It’s about getting our national debt down and end the wasteful spending.

It’s time to figure out how those in Congress can become multimillionaires on a yearly salary of $174K. Must be magic!!! Now you see why they go into politics and stay forever.

Congrats EPG. I have know too many that retired too late, and never got to enjoy life. I encourage everyone to retire as soon as you possibly can. One of my best friends only made it about 9 months after he retired and passed away and my BIL had a massive stroke just about the time he planned to retire and now can’t use his whole left side and is wheel chair bound.

Lately my in town garden has had more trouble with deer then rabbits. Was thinking about using 5 foot cattle panels for fence. Are they bendable?

The cattle/hog/handy panel that my local L&M or Tractor Supply sold are not bendable. The ones I installed around my garden were like 4ga or 6ga wire and had to cut with a cutoff wheel or grinder. They are about 48” to 50” tall and came in 16ft length. I have a raised garden and the panel sit above the raised bed so the top of the fence is about 60” off the ground and have kept the deer out.

Don’t care who wins, just hope the commercials are good. Been a long time since they had awesome commercials throughout the game. Will watch since it’s a long time before we can watch live games again.

35 years in the Electric Utility, retired 5 years ago. Fishing, napping and doing whatever I want when I want. Was going to retire 7 years ago but the union made the last 2 years of work to profitable to retire.

His post said 30” or 30 inch not 30 feet.

I wouldn’t worry about it and use it like it is since you are new to ice fishing. It’s not a bad shack, I have a Frabill Fortress XL and it’s a decent shack, no issues with it. I would use it and this will give you a better idea what type of shack you would want in the future if you get into ice fishing more.

Not a Chief’s hater, but it sure seem they get more than their share of favorable penalties either called or not called. Not sure why Kelce wasn’t flagged for taunting in the end zone when Mahomes scored. On the last 4th down at the end of the game by the Bills, it sure looked like Allen was thrown to the ground. Wonder if the roles were reversed and the Chiefs losing and Mahomes got thrown down would it still have been a non call?

New worst team in the NFC, and I don’t feel one bit sorry either.

Most recent NFC Championship Game appearance (season)

Washington Commanders – 2024
San Francisco 49ers – 2023
Detroit Lions – 2023
Phildelphia Eagles – 2022
Los Angeles Rams – 2021
Green Bay Packers – 2020
Tampa Bay Buccaneers – 2020
New Orleans Saints – 2018
Minnesota Vikings – 2017
Atlanta Falcons – 2016
Seattle Seahawks – 2014
New York Giants – 2011
Chicago Bears – 2010
Arizona Cardinals – 2008
Carolina Panthers – 2005
Dallas Cowboys – 1995
To make matters even worse for Cowboys fans, their team’s most recent appearance in the NFC Championship Game came a full decade before the next “worst” team, the Carolina Panthers.

Will be interesting to see if the Lions coordinators will be hired as HC’s now that their season is over. All three NFC North team were one and done in the post season. Wonder if all the Lions injuries finally caught up with them. Just hope the Chiefs go down next week.

Just be glad Chicago didn’t draft Jayden Daniels!

Knowing Da Bears, I bet Daniel’s wouldn’t be playing like he is if he had been drafted by Da Bears.

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!!!!

Joe wrote:

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.

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.

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 may want to add “and have never won a Super Bowl and probably never will”.

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

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.

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.
“The Vikings I assume are aware they’re down 18 points.” – Joe Buck
“I was kinda thinking the same thing.” – Troy Aikman
“I mean they’re running the ball, they’re slow to the line.” – Buck

BigWerm wrote:

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.

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

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