Golfman Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) Game of the year, no doubt! Win and we likely get a first round bye. Lose and we're the 3 seed in all likelihood and have to do it again at Lambeau in 2 weeks. You've got to read some of the comments from people about this song! Priceless!

MacReady Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Kirk has never won on Monday Night Football, Rodgers has never won in that stadium. That’s the biggest storyline and Monday Night Football gonna be all over it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that note, would the Vikings hang a banner in US Bank if Kirk wins on MNF? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably but they won't have a Lombardi with him at QB. Edited December 17, 2019 by Golfman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lodestar Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 If you're the Vikings, are you selling out to win this game or are you holding anything back knowing we could be playing again in two weeks? If I'm the Packers, I'm doing everything I can to get the W and ensure a bye, but the Vikings (knock on wood) probably don't have much to gain by winning. If they could eke out a win with, say, 80% effort and then come into Lambeau with a bunch of unscouted looks in their back pocket, that's pretty ideal for them.

If we win we likely wouldn't face them until the NFC Championship game. We'd be the #2 seed in all likelihood and they will be #6, locked in so that doesn't seem like a plausible strategy. Plus, a rivalry game, they want to put it to us and vice versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfman Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) Week 17 just got a lot easier! Matt Stafford put on IR and his year is over! Next year's two games as well as Patricia and Quinn are both coming back for Lions. Edited December 17, 2019 by Golfman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what about the scenario I described where they scrape out a win with 80% effort? They've blown us out at that field before so it's not like they necessarily have to show everything in order to beat us. Worse case for them, they lose and no big deal.

Yeah, teams don't win in the NFL with 80% effort. We'd have to implode if they were giving 80% effort. I don't see anything but their best shot on Monday night! They need to be building momentum as well going into the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
