He drove the length of the field twice in 4 minutes do you think
Though Peterson bowled over a guy and ran for like 30 yards ?
but yeah Brett did it all
yet when its a fumble for a TD it isnt his fault
:viksux::happy0005:

No, it is that he had a huge roll in the way they lost yet you refuse to acknowledge it2 years ago you guys would stand in line for hours to sniff his jock strap but now he sucks. You Packer backers crack me up
Do you want to talk football or do you want to talk cheerleading rheteric. The problem is you got abunch of packer fans who act like kids with the vikings sux crap and favre sucks crap. I have posted many positives about the packers but all the garbage talk draws it out of me. It is football and we all love it so I am way to old to get it into with a 110 pound kid who is a badass on his PC posting that garbage. With My size I would bet most of these tough kids would be quiet as a church mouse standing next to me. So if you want to talk football I am here if you want to talk garbage I am here until Longtime guy kicks me offThis has nothing to do with the game. It has to do with the way you address people here while posting. Is there a need for the disrespect?
How did they lose? they racked up 440 yards of offense to the top ranked defense in the league the last 2 years. Brett favre had 340 yards or so in the air. Big Ben picked up 175 yards in passing and they had no running game. the Vikings lost but to say that they didn't outplay them is crazy. they were outcoached as childress is a bad coach and I have always said that. It was great game with 2 very good teams. I never said the Vikings would beat Pitt in Pitt but they had their chances. That is one that got awayNo, it is that he had a huge roll in the way they lost yet you refuse to acknowledge it
And off topic, but you need to stop the name calling..This is the last time we mention it I hope
Here is one of those 110 pound tough guys now. Do you think Aaron Rodgers would of stepped in between those Steelers? your dreaming because he would of got his *** kicked. You guys are so cool with vikings sux signs. What are you 18 or 19 years old?I'll be here all day to take trash to a queen! Lets begin with this awesome play and tackle attempt by your "great" qb!:viksux:

You clowns got outplayed as you were down by 17 with 3 minutes to go so cry all you want the whole country saw the packers get the ***** kicked on Monday night. The Vikings and steelers game was a good game. the packers vikings game was over at halftime, BTW you forgot your cool Vikings sux sign on your last post.Arent we told time and time again so what if you have 500 yards passing and rushing, its the W that counts....
Just get over the fact the Vikings lost, I know its hard but stop blaming the refs, and this or that...
What ifs do not matter!
That is what YOU said after the Monday night game
So stop the what if game.
your so cool and i bet your a badass long distance as well:viksux::viksux::viksux::viksux:

Yeah with that 400 yards of passing that Big Ben has been doing not to mention Super Bowl champions on their own turf, your right they suck. They have lost 2 games both by 3 points so your right Steelers are terrible and they are nothing special. Your a moron. They are are in the top 5 in offense and top 10 in defense and the Vikings who you have repeatedly ripped for haveing a terrible defense shuts them down so to strengthen your arguement it is because the steelers are nothing special? Gotcha Gotcha king cheesehead
The game at Heinz Field was a great game ... despite the fact that the Vikings lost ...
Steelers played pretty solid at defense ... and as a team the Steelers have a rep of playing to the level of their opponent (especially at home it seems, regardless of level ...) - The Vikings managed to contain the Steelers offense as well ...
Personally, I think that game had most of what most (football) fans would want ... intensity ... (relative) solid play overall ... It's not like the Vikings got blown away ... far from it ...
I think the game proved that the Vikings are infact a pretty good team this year, and much better than most critics would like to admit ... And lets face it ... a Vikings loss was probably the "best" thing that could have happened regarding "build-up" (in terms of fans and media) for this Sundays rematch in Green Bay at Lambeau ...
Losing to the Steelers at Heinz Field wasn't as "catastrophic" as alot of "experts" (analysists) and fans are making it out to ... The Vikings are 6-1, and it was an out of conference game as well as on the road, so the impact it will have will most likely be minimal, no matter how you look at it ... And probably meant more to the Steelers than it did to the Vikings ...
I can't help but smile, when some people insist on that old Greybeard caused the loss, but that same thing will happen every time he either loses or throws an interception ...
The Steelers are a pretty good team (especially at home), however, most people seem to (conviently) forget that ...
The Dolphins managed to put a "scare" into most NO fans ... and was playing pretty well against the Saints, untill they "Ran out of Gas" ...
Not to mention Atlanta Falcons that were (also) brought down to earth in Dallas by the Cowboys ... - Romo played pretty well in that game, but I guess he didn't have much to do with that win and was just lucky ? heh ...
As I've said before ... this Sundays game, by all accounts, should be a very interesting one, and also one that will get alot of attention.

Yes, and the same thing happens when old greybeard throws one up in the air and one of his receivers miraculously come down with it when it should have been a pick. So it works both ways, and the world has to listen about his miracle throws where he won the game singlehandedly one hell of a lot more than his "picks" that are of course never his fault.
Not exactly ... - I've watched more than enough games to be able to see when he does "throw it up for grabs" versus when he does not ...
However that is besides the point really, and the funny thing is ... I'm pretty sure most will agree ...
So far in this season the interceptions haven't really been his fault (aside from one in my opinion) ... - And I've pointed out earlier (also on this board) that the line between "Genious" and "Boneheaded-play" is thin ...
If you make the play, you are "great", if you don't you are a "fool" ... The thing I'm pointing out is, whenever it's about Favre, it's "always" his fault, no matter what ... regardless of who his team is playing, never mind the fact that the Steelers actually played pretty solid on defense (as did the Vikings) ...
Fact is, Favre is (currently) playing very well ... Will it hold up ? - Who knows, however, I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts :happy0005: Incidently ... - the same can be said for about every other quarterback in this league and beyond ...
Favre isn't flawless, no one is saying that, heck, old Greybeard even said afterwards that he held on to the ball too long on occassions ... - Which is more than can be said of alot of other quarterbacks in this league ...
I agree with some of your points but as much as people want to claim Pittsburgh is a great team, I don't believe they really are. What they are good at is forcing teams to play their style of game and the Vikings took the bait.
I'll agree Minnesota played decently, but at the end of the day, they lost by 10 points to an inferior opponent and Favre was mostly responsible for the 14 of the points the Steelers put up. There is no way Minnesota's secondary plays like the NFL's top-ranked - on the road - against one of the best passing NFL offenses - minus their top cornerback IF Pitt doesn't happen to be a tad overrated.
From what I've seen of Favre in 20 years is that he seems to mentally play out certain games with certain opponents in his head beforehand and if he feels he can't win, he almost lays down and he plays so much differently than he usually does - I think it might be advancing age and the loss of the carefree attitudes of youth. He's always had trouble with Pittsburgh and yesterday he really seemed out of sorts in the pocket. I'll admit, he's getting less comfortable in the pocket with each passing year, but yesterday he was jerkin' around like he was amped-up on Red Bull and most of the time there wasn't a defender near him. And, when he gets skittish, he's not as loose and fumbles and pick-sixes happen. He's really gotta watch some game film because the film won't lie - he is being well-protected and he needs to relax.
Minnesota is a pretty solid team, but they're proving to have serious issues putting an entire game's worth of offense/defense/ST together. Early, the running game was fine and the passing game sucked. Now, the passing game is great (save yesterday), but the running game sucks. The defensive front four are great, but the secondary sucks. Yesterday, the secondary was solid and the passing offense was extremely inefficient (6.5 YPA will not cut it on the road) and the running game was yet again abysmal overall.
It might take more time for Minnesota to get the "dominant" **** in their walk, but until they do, they're gonna continue to play inconsistently.
Honestly, the reason you are going to hear alot about his picks this year is because everyone is getting truly sick and tired of hearing how every single thing he ever did and does is so much more wonderful than anyone else. The sports world has had to listen to nothing but Favre, and of course are starting to look for and jump on any mistakes with glee. He can make the same exact play as another QB and you don't hear about them, but Favre's get replayed and replayed til you want to puke.
I think he does that, but I don't think it has to do with age. I think it has more to do with his personality, and the lack of control he got in green bay after Holmgren's departure. As much people try to make a case that Favre was allways a "gunslinger" and that was just the way he played, IMO it's not the case. He had that trait in him all along, but with Holmgren, it was contained, for most of the time.From what I've seen of Favre in 20 years is that he seems to mentally play out certain games with certain opponents in his head beforehand and if he feels he can't win, he almost lays down and he plays so much differently than he usually does - I think it might be advancing age and the loss of the carefree attitudes of youth.
