The Packers won by 9 points, mission accomplished.  I think CaptainWimm pointed out in a post, that the Packers have fared pretty well when leading by 7 or more in the second half.Will Pettine and the Packers make some adjustments because of this game, sure.  Will they panic because of it and never go into "prevent defense" again?  Probably not.  Quite honestly, I am more concerned about the Packers defense and their ability to stop the run, something that the Vikings didn't really attack after the first half.  I'm just fine with running scores way up and then only winning by 9 points because our defense was instructed to not give up the big plays.</blockquote>
