You were handed the game on a ridiculously, inexplicably bad PI call, but that isnt your players fault, they played hard tonight for that W in Minny, see you later at Lambeau.
Don't whine about the officiating. A defender can't grab a receiver's jersey and turn him like that. It was a textbook case of pass interference, as Collinsworth explained.

Your Packers got beat. It's as simple as that.

We got called for several of them that had the same amount of contact, and yet you and many other Packers fans are gonna single out that one call as the reason you lost. But I'm sure the ones against us were good calls and only the one against your team was a bad call...

Bradford/Diggs and our defense won this one, not the refs.

Not only did Collinsworth explain it but he went on for like 60 seconds about how good the call was lol

Good God, can you Packers and Packer fans EVER stop whining? It was a good call. He grabbed the jersey with the back hand and turned Diggs. Hell, your own team didn't even argue the call, which is pretty much unprecedented.

You got beat. PERIOD.

SKOL!!!

I have stuck up for you the entire time you have been here. But this whole game all you did was argue about the refs. If this was my board, you would be banned next time the Vikings play the Packers.

We'll just pretend the 2nd call on Newman prior to your early TD wasn't a ghost call that could be called on every play too, or would you rather pretend that was legit?

Packer tears are so tasty!!

They didnt even make contact, Diggs was 'wearing' him because he was in perfect coverage.

If its the call im thinking there was a clear arm bar, but we could do this all day, the 4th down that was ruled first down then changed by a different ref etc.

The important part is that you guys won, so you have the inside track on the division right now.

As good and strong as AD has been , I would agree with this. I really hope it isn't as bad as it looks, but it sure did not look good.

It was a ridiculous call, he barely contacted him at all, he didnt grasp any part of him, why did the call come so late I( wonder??

That was an absolutely amazing performance by Sam Bradford tonight. I actually called for Shaun Hill to start. I was afraid that Bradford wasn't ready and would make mistakes. Instead it was Erin Rodgers fumbling and throwing picks in the clutch.

That TD pass to Diggs was straight money, guys. That's arm talent, and a great read to boot.

Guys, we've got ourselves a quarterback.
