Refugee Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 1 hour ago, Leader said: Conjure this for a bit...... In theory....with defections etc....Lazard could become our WR1. Yes but under that scenario 17 and likely 12 are not here. We would be foolish not to get compensation, maybe historically high levels of compensation, for those losses.

Was just pointing out how thin the position is with regard to play makers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leader Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Bradbury's back....but in his weakened state, he should be even more of a push over than usual......

ProFootballTalk - Vikings take Garrett Bradbury off COVID reserve list, put Josh Metellus on. There’s been some chatter that Cole may be the guy moving forward. Zimmer’s comments regarding Bradbury’s return haven’t been very glowing, certainly sounds like Cole may have bought himself another week as a starter. Will see what he does with it, but he’s played really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanedorf Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 from The Dope Sheet Green Bay enters this week with a franchise-record 7-game winning streak in road division games that is also tied for the longest current road divisional winning streak in the league with Kansas City and Tennessee. The Packers have a 30-29 record in away games against the Vikings, including wins at Minnesota each of the last two seasons. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Not sure why I think this.....but I feel like our passing game will improve indoors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect you're correct Leader. Rodgers has always loved playing in the ideal conditions indoor facilities provide. With a solid week of reps, after his bout with covid and subsequent shutdown from practice, I expect the Packers offense to find some much needed rhythm and success. Keep the Vikings off balance, their defense thrives when they can make their opponents one dimensional and they struggle when they have to divide their attention between the run and pass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAM Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Huge opportunities for both teams. A Packers win pretty much seals the division crown and is another step in the quest to bring the road to the Super Bowl through Green Bay. A win by the Vikings keeps their slim hopes for winning the division alive and a serious wildcard playoff contender. Whereas, a loss essentially kills their division dreams and puts them behind the 8-ball for a wildcard spot. A loss may also seal Mike Zimmers fate as Head Coach of the Vikings. For Vikings fans and current players this game has Super Bowl level importance. Packers fans can take comfort in remembering Vikings 0 for four chokes in Super Bowls. 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A loss would have them tied with the Eagles current record. Certainly not the way they would want to go, but remember, there are 17 games and 7 playoff slots now. Being 4-6 is not a death sentence here. They still have games against: San Fran, Detroit, Pittsburgh, and Chicago (x2), where I would favor the Vikings. They also have a head-to-head tie breaker against Carolina, who currently hold the 7th spot. But I do tend to be the Packers fan that has the softest stance on the Vikings, I hate the Bears, Chiefs, and Seahawks more, and probably the Rams.

Leader Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 (edited) We cant lose this game. With the upcoming contest with the LAR - we need to maintain our winning ways. Actually......it would be nice if we could WIN a game convincingly. We've not done that in awhile.

One play goes the wrong way and we're behind. I had something in mind where we actually score a lot of points. The offense looking like its actually clicking on all cylinders and the scoreboard matching. Last weeks game was more appropriate for a CHI/GB game from years back.
