Here we go!

The Joker couldn’t have said any better. Five=and-a-half hours from now the Minnesota Vikings and Brett Favre will enter Lambeau Field for the biggest regular season game in recent NFL memory. Certainly the biggest non-playoff game in head coach Mike McCarthy’s coaching career. A win by the Packers could be the turning point in the post-Favre era would certainly give Aaron Rodgers new respect from all his doubters. A loss and the Packers are right back to being an enigma, and worse yet, fighting for wildcard berth at best.

I’ll be there and doing my part by screaming every time Favre steps under center, making it just as difficult to operate as the Packers faced in Minnesota last month. The Packers are at home, they are getting better on both sides of the ball, and should be able to use the 12th Man to their advantage and garner a win. It is a going to be electric in Lambeau today and I can’t wait to get there.

By the way, Packers 24, Vikings 21.

    The packers better win this game

    GO PACKER WIN BABY WIN

  • ChrisAZ

    LETS GO PACK! How about a blowout..I say 31-10. Better here the boos for Favre before and during the game too, but I hope the fans are classy and applaud him after the game no matter the outcome.

  • dd

    Man I cant wait for this game to get started

  • justawake

    For all of you who are confused:

    Proper Packer etiquette:
    Cheer Favre when he comes out before the game.
    Scream “Take his head off!, Kill him!, etc…” while he’s under center.
    Cheer the battered and bruised legend as he limps of the field after the Pack wins.

  • justawake

    limps off* the field

    If Twitter stays up today I’ll update from the stadium. Packernetblog is the name.

  • Mark Troy

    I guess it’s the Packer’s Superbowl?

  • just saying

    I dont wont them to hurt #4 but I do wont them to KNOCK THE DUST OUT OF HIM

  • Steve Cheez

    I agree, JS, no need to hurt the ol’guy. But I sure would love to see SageVarius JackenFels under center because BF just threw his fifth pick.

  • just saying

    I just cant wait until all of this #4 drama is OVER it is what it is and the packers have moved on and I hope #4 will move on as well I hope the packers get the job done so the packers fan can move on

  • dd

    WHAT THE HELL RODGERS dont start falling apart know we need to win this game

  • Dan

    Good to see MM chewing Rodgers out on the sideline for not running for the easy first down.

  • Dan

    Great play by Pickett!!!

  • Dan

    Jolly you idiot.

  • dd

    jolly needs to be slap for this one and rodgers needs to get his head in the game and get us a TD

  • http://www.yahoo.com SN

    This team is so undisciplined. Jolly cost the Packers 4 points.

  • Dan

    How many games before we stop making stupid penalties?

  • dd

    I hope MM bench him for this mess jolly you messed up MAN

  • http://www.yahoo.com SN

    Do the Packers have the worst pass rush in the league?

  • Dan

    Favre seems to be reading our defense by doing a hard count and seeing if Matthews is coming or not.

  • http://www.yahoo.com SN

    Pretty pathetic effort so far. Doesn’t look good.

  • Dan

    Great stop by the defense

  • Oddball

    14-3 is livable. Good job D!

    Now move your ass offense!

  • Mike from Arizona

    14-3

    Penalties are killing the Packers…………..

    Rodgers looks bad, too many sacks, get rid of the ball…………..

    Offensive has no continuity… Not even 75 yards in the first half.

  • dd

    This is one sad game are the packers even trying to win this game they are going to let this old fart beat us at home WHAT A SHAME

  • http://www.yahoo.com SN

    Hopefully they can make some adjustments at halftime. It could be a lot worse than 17-3. Rodgers can’t play any worse than he did in the first half.

  • 4205

    Agree – haven’t seen Rodgers make so many poor decisions.

  • packer_bob

    Anybody else have any doubts yet?

    Fortunately, I have “Won’t Get Fooled Again” save on my hard drive. Saves me the trouble of having to download it for the 17th time.

  • jonnyfootballhero

    Still hoping they can pull it off, but confidence is not high at the moment…

  • http://www.yahoo.com SN

    3rd and 17 conversion. Three man rush. Unbelievable.

  • jonnyfootballhero

    Cue up the music pb….I’d love to hear The Who right about now…

  • http://www.yahoo.com SN

    Wow. What a horrible performance by the Packers.

  • packer_bob

    Hey, on the upside, we do have the 3rd ranked defense in the league right now.

    When do we get to play Cleveland again?

  • dd

    GAME OVER AND IM DONE WATCHING THIS MESS

    talk to you guys next week maybe the packers will be ready to play some football

  • Mike from Arizona

    So they beat up teams who suck…. Big Deal.

    Can they beat a team with a winning record this season?

  • jonnyfootballhero

    Red Zone – do I see another Field Goal in the near future?

  • 4205

    another mental mistake – Rodgers is lost!

  • jonnyfootballhero

    I’d like to send several dozen cupcakes decorated in the colors of the Lions, Browns, and Rams to the Packers.

  • 4205

    Throw the damn ball!!!!

  • just saying

    he could have ran in for the TD why rodgers why did you not run

  • packer_bob

    How about that Mason Crosby? Good as Gould.

    That guy is dead on accurate from 7 yards away.

  • just saying

    it might be time to sit rodgers

  • jonnyfootballhero

    Nice throw Rodgers!! Who is this Havner guy?? And why isn’t he more involved in this game?? What a great catch… Two weeks in a row!! Awsome catch guy!

  • packer_bob

    Havner may have saved me. What a great catch!

  • 4205

    You can’t sit him – he has to learn, but….how about some 3 step drops!

  • jonnyfootballhero

    Was that a screen pass??

  • Dan

    Here we go, come back time!!!

  • Dan

    4 point game. Just don’t give up a big return and were in great shape

  • just saying

    the packers then came back from the dead

    go packers

  • jonnyfootballhero

    Who is this team?!?!? How can they play so shitty one half, and then completely light it up during the second?? Again to Havner!! This guy better get a game ball to go along with the beer shower he just got!!
