i think ponder just needs to get timing down.

4) Vikings make playoffs

Another 1 and done in the playoffs makes no difference to me. I want Peterson to get to the record. 207 is possible, 102 better damn well be a guarantee. I will literally freak if he comes up short of 2000.

TBH, that's pretty sad. You're probably that guy who sat next to me at the dome checking fantasy stats on the scoreboard rather than watching the friggin' game.

53.3 percent completion? One touchdown? 174 yards?

SLOW the MVP TALK EVERYONE! Ponder is coming up!

That's so arrogant. I'm guessing you didn't see the game.

I can't believe the improvement Ponder showed this week with his footwork and presence in the pocket. At least we know he's capable of playing in a big moment, those bonehead plays are still there though.

So? This is a Vikings-Packers thread. If you can't handle trash talk, you shouldn't be here.

Everyone who participates in discussion of this rivalry understands whats going on.

I give Bears and Lions fans equal (if not more, Stafford sucks, amirite bdubs? ) crap for their teams.

[sljock53]

ok in all honesty... Jay Cutler will always be a little whiny Bi*tch thats all...

Yes, the Pack has SBs and a good team again, so I guess Vikings fans will have to settle for having only a few things Pack fans don't: educations, all their teeth, and dignity.

Can't attack the team so you have to attack the fans... sounds about right.

Hey, I have two of the three things you described...

[oldgoldy97]

There was a funnier one, but it was too offensive.

[freethrowtommy]

Too soon?

[oldgoldy97]

I expect nothing but failure so that any success is a happy bonus.

That's quite the generalization.

Did you really read the whole thing? I lost interest about 1/4 of the way through. Yawn....

I think the flask and you are talking about the same game. It was for the 1998 season but occurred in 1999. Both right.

Umm, no, I would rather Peterson accomplish something that will stand for ALL TIME than have a playoff run that lasts one quarter of one game for one year.
