MacReady Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I hope Jackson doesn’t win MVP because MVP winners never win Super Bowls. I’d love to see the Ravens win a Super Bowl (after us first obviously). Packers, Saints, Ravens, Chiefs... I’d rather see the Seahawks win a Super Bowl than the Patriots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday's game was a gift for your team going against a qb starting in his 2nd nfl game. A missed 42 yard field goal and a horrible interception right before half was just enough for a sneak by win. Credit them for a comeback but if playing a decent team and it was toast time. Not impressed by the last 3 games, loss at KC, win at Dallas barely and this one against Denver. Not a trend to be thrilled with Leave out context and then spew ignorance on the subject; they WERE playing a decent team. The Denver Broncos lost a few games by less than three points and their defense has proven themselves to be an elite defense in the NFL. Maybe no. 1 pass defense, but we were gifted a 20 point comeback win? We played terrible the first half and flat out torched them in the second, primarily because of Cousins. Without what may have been his no. 1 receiver and Kline. Our offensive line’s inability to stay consistent also affected Cousins in that game yet he persevered. We weren’t gifted anything. I am as harsh on Cousins as anyone, but this year, I can’t say much. I’ve tried to, and he has come up big time mostly. I still won’t say he is worth his contract fully but for me to be blind to what he has done so far this season, is a mistake. What were you watching without bias? We are going to pretend like your team isn’t always gifted some nonsense bogus calls simply because your the Packers? Please. I also don’t believe anyone really cares if you’re impressed. I don’t see any Vikings fans asking you if you were. I also can’t see why he took the time out to try and discuss with you any type of football related point in a professional manner. You’re obviously not having it. This is the Green Bay forum though, so.. maybe I shouldn’t have expected too much. We lost to KC and Chicago. We gifted you a win earlier in the year. What trend do you have to be thrilled with? You played a similar close game to KC and came out in top. That doesn’t prove you’re better. You also lost outer division games to the Chargers and the Eagles. One of them at home... You guys are not THAT impressive. I don’t understand how you’re able to play it off as if your club us something to behold... In the nicest way possible, I personally look forward to the game against GB later in the year more than I do any other game on the schedule. I feel more confident in that win than any other. Luckily for us, no top team so far looks to be head and shoulders better than anybody, and with a decent drop off after those caliber teams, it is going to be fun to watch this sort itself out. I wish you Good Luck on a healthy season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May I ask where any of my points were incorrect? You didn’t really splinter a nerve, more so just reiterated things that were so untrue, they absolutely called for a response. In essence, Cousins has played well this year. I do agree that he hasn’t yet played up to the contract afforded to him, but the reasoning given was terrible.

I wish you Good Luck on a healthy season. - We beat those two teams! Interesting! - Thanks for the gift! Is it similar to the two 'gifts' you were handed the past two weeks or do gifts only happen when the Packers win? - You do realize when we meet in week 16 we will likely be 12-2 and you'll be no better than 10-4, losing to Seattle in Seattle. Meaning, the division and first round bye are likely secured for Green Bay. Our only motivation will be to knock you out of the playoffs. Might not be in our best interest because we actually want Cousins extended and getting Mahomes money after his extension! - Just one caveat. I heard the loser of the Super Bowl is going to receive a trophy in the spirit of today's political correctness. They are naming it "The Bud Grant Trophy!" Unfortunately, the Vikings will not receive 4 of them retroactively, so your trophy case will still be empty!
