  1. This game was nothing like the week 4 game other than the Vikings won by 2….the week 4 game the Vikings blew out the packers in the first half and then the Packers blew out the Vikings in the second half. This game the Vikings absolutely dominated the entire game until the last 6 minutes and the Packers went into desperation mode which the Vikings didn't handle all that well. Either way the better team won both games. The Vikings are getting better every week and if Darnold can avoid throwing picks they will be really hard to beat in the post season. SKOL

  2. Please tell me that Sam didn't really not know what "LFG" stood for? lol. And why was Tom Brady interviewing him remotely when they were in the same building? Weird.

  3. Super frustrating as a packers fan. We have such a high ceiling but it’s like every week in some way we just can’t put it all together. Darnold and Goff are both statues in the pocket yet we can’t get any pressure on them whatsoever.

    Sam darnold was third highest this week in time to throw which is absolutely insane considering he had 43 pass attempts. Number 1 was Lamar who only had 15 attempts.

    43 pass attempts and we got 1 sack. He was just hanging out in the pocket all game. You can’t beat an offense like that if you can’t get any pressure on these statue QBs whatsoever.

    All of our games against Minnesota and Detroit we’ve had double digit deficits in the first half, EXTREMELY slow starts. Yet against bad teams it seems like we’re up 10-0 or 14-0 immediately. Just super frustrating because these are the teams we’re going to play in the playoffs. Losing the 6th seed is worst case scenario. Wild card weekend in Philly is trouble that I don’t think we’re ready for
