@brewdogg, you can be as bitchy as you want, but facts are facts. The packers are 11 against the run. Saying we “can’t stop it” is a little asinine.

I’m never even said Peterson wouldn’t get 100 yards.

Reading comprehension classes are worth it. Try one.

you guys are funny.. the Giants didn’t dominate the prior NYGvsWAS game. The Redskins running game of Alfred Morris (forget RG#) was far more dominate than the Ahmad Bradshaw show. Neither team has a shutdown corner so big plays will occur. There’s a reason it’s a big deal on a Monday night, bragging rights & NFCEAST standings. Both teams have injuries and weakness in the OL. Redskins will win this one by a 3-7 point margin, (35-27) no blowout unless Eli gets generous which he’s due for.

HTTR!!

Interesting analysis, contra.

So the 11th best team against the rush “can’t stop the rush”?

Wise. So wise. People must take you so seriously in real life.
————————————–

Oh yes, congratulations on containing the #30 Arizona and #31 Jacksonville ground games….. Of course, the Packers then gave up 110 to #25 Detroit and then let the Giants go for 147 last week. While accolades are in order for the performance they gave against Arian Foster, the fact is that they have faced 4 of the 8 worst rushing offenses in the league. SF went for 186, Seattle for 127, and Indy for 119, all Packers losses.

Do you really think they are going to hold Peterson under 100? Do you really think that the Packers are that much better than Chicago, Seattle, and Tampa against the run? That’s 3 of the last 4 defenses that he has faced, and it has been 5 weeks since he finished with less than 100 yds and 6 yds/carry.

Im see the Vikings/Packers game as one that may come down to the kickers. Packers can not stop the run and Vikes struggle against the pass. Fortunately the Vikings have Blair Walsh while the Packers have wide left/right Mason.

I’d love to think that the Packers will crush the Vikings, but that isn’t going to happen if the Packers’ D can’t stop the run. They sure couldn’t do that last week. They’ve got a big problem on their right side with a starting DE who may not play, Matthews who probably won’t play, and CB Williams who doesn’t want to tackle anyone.
If Jennings comes back and is okay I think the Packers score just enough to win, but I think it’ll be uncomfortably close.

Nobody gives luck credit because stats show that the colts are the worst 7-4 team in history. They have a negative scoring differential -11 I believe. The kids good but he hasn’t played like rg3. Put luck in shannys offense and I feel he does better than he’s doin in Indy though

“Once again it’s all about RGIII, while Andrew Luck’s accomplishments gets pushed into the shadows. No shot against Detroit, eh? I’m not sure what it’s going to take for him to get respect here, but Indy’s getting healthier and Luck loves challenges.”

The Patriots were a challenging team.
We all saw how that Colts-Patriots game went.

Tampa is going against Peyton Manning and the Denver receivers with two third string corner backs?

Other than this mis-match the two teams actually line up pretty well against each other. But Manning will have a field day, 4TD’s and 340 yards.

“Florio thinks with his heart and not his head.

The Vikes will roar against the Packers by scoring early to quiet the crowd and then playing great defense to seal the deal.

Vikes make the playoffs, packers go play golf this year.”

Only a Minnesotan would accuse someone else of emotion-based thinking and then base his prediction and how loud or quiet the crowd is.

The amazing RGIII & the universes best coach in Shanny will destroy the Giants. When the great RGIII gets done with the G-men we will all induct him immediately into Canton along with his mastermind coach. Lest we forget Morris the worlds best running back! The Giants will be no match for the Redskins! Hail to the Redskins…

Just a warm up to voiceofreason guys…

Vikings fans are hilarious.

Headache won’t be effective, even if he plays, Ponder can’t make plays, and that means the packers just have to concentrate on shutting down Peterson.

Packers 49
Vikings 6

Hope you’re right about the Falcons / Saints. I hope they’ve come up with a way to slow Jimmy Graham down and maybe even pressure Brees. We’ll see.

@thehuckster404,

id be careful about what you say, that probably will happen. Only though, if gailey has a sudden epiphany and actaully gives him the ball more than 10 times. So actually, it probably wont

Man, where did all these redskins fans come from? I agree, they have improved, but settle down. If someone just awoke from a coma you would think the Redskins were 10-1.

“The Dolphins will win if the sprinklers come on again. And if the are loaded with hydrochloric acid and aimed at the eyes of Tom Brady and Bill Belichick. Otherwise, advantage Pats.”

A really lame joke has absolutely zero chance of being effective if you can’t compose an intelligible sentence.

Stop smoking weed; the Adderol isn’t counteracting the effects.

I think the Rams will upset this weekend. Redskins will beat the Giants. Raiders over Browns.

Glad to see the Jets are favored over the Cardinals, we need to start getting them wins so we keep Ryan and Sanchez around for another year. As a fan of (1) the Pats, (2) slapstick physical comedy, and (3) people who swear like sailors into their headsets every single time their QB runs a play, I need these. This is important, people.

I think the Packers loss at the Giants may have a more unsettling effect on the Packers. Let’s face it, their last 4 wins were against the worst teams in the league, and they haven’t played well for at least a couple weeks- the performance against the Lions was lackluster at best.

This Packers team does not have the sync and rhythm of last year’s team- which everyone knew was unsustainable. Part of that is because opposing teams adjust, and part of that is because the Packers haven’t countered.

I have the upmost respect for the Packers QB and WR corps, but defensively they’re missing their playmakers. Offensively they’re missing their OL and running game. It’s tough to take charge of a game that way.

That opens it up for the opposing team to do so, and take the win in the process. The Giants did last week, the Lions failed to the week before. The Vikings will have their chance this week, but it’s really about the opposing team seizing the opportunity the Packers will provide, not the Packers outplaying or outclassing their opponents. They have too many holes to do that.

Once again it’s all about RGIII, while Andrew Luck’s accomplishments gets pushed into the shadows. No shot against Detroit, eh? I’m not sure what it’s going to take for him to get respect here, but Indy’s getting healthier and Luck loves challenges. Watch out Lions. Colts in an upset (though to me this is a pick ‘em game).
