They are acting like this defense is the next coming of the 85 bears. Yeah sure they played good week 1 but let’s be honest, trubisky was pathetic. And I don’t believe it was all because of that defense. I just don’t think trubisky is a good QB. I mean the Bears were 21st in total offense last year and were largely carried by their defense. It’s not like the packers just held the rams or chiefs to 3 points. It was the fricken bears.

No less I just about threw up when they gave Rodgers “player of the game” last week. He had 1 play that gained the majority of his yardage. He missed throws all night and threw a junk TD pass to jimmy graham. It disgusts me how much the media is obsessed with that team and Rodgers. They haven’t been relevant in a few years now and Zim is 5-1-1 against them since 2016.

In a way I’m glad we’re underdogs because we play better when that is the case.

My newborn son says 24-13 Vikes and I agree!

Yesterday, I tortured myself by listening to Colin Cowherd on Fox Sports Radio. He had some doofus on there doing "The Headline Before the Headline." Basically, it's a prediction segment using "creative" headlines before the games are played.

This idiot (can't remember his name), a so-called expert, picked the Packers to "win big." Check out his reasoning ... "I don't see how this Vikings team, which disappointed everyone last year at 8-7-1, can hang with Aaron Rodgers and Green Bay on the road."

Never mind that the Packers were 6-9-1 last year and 7-9 the year before. Somehow, that's immaterial, even though Erin played all 16 games last year.

My dream is that the Vikings not only win tomorrow, but embarrass Green Bay, much the way we did in 1998.

Lol what a joke. It blows my mind how some of these guys actually get paid for crap like that. I feel like many of us on here could make good money being “experts”. Because I can tell you we know more than a lot of those guys.

No less we 100% “ran” with GB last year on the road and had the game won if it wasn’t for our kicker. 2 of their tds came off a blocked punt and drop by Treadwell. And cousins drastically outplayed Rodgers in that game as well as the one at home. And like you said, they were 6-9-1 last year WITH Rodgers all year. But let me guess, they would use the excuse of “Rodgers wasn’t 100% in that week 2 game last year because he had a sore knee”. Give me a f-ing break. All they do is kiss that guys as# and I don’t get why. The “best in the game” and he’s been to and won ONE Super bowl in 12 years now, going on 13. How is that “the best in the game”? He’s past his prime and not the hero the media thinks he is. The best QB in the game should be able to get their team at least to the playoffs no matter how bad the team is. He didn’t even come close and he had plenty of weapons.

But regardless, yeah let’s blow this defense up because they held the 21st ranked offense in the NFL to 3 points.....what an accomplishment How about the Vikings defense holding the #6 offense to 0 points up until the 4th quarter? Let’s talk about that!
