Well, it sounds like there’s no reason to play any of the games during the season. Let’s just pick two teams randomly and have them play the Super Bowl.
Games featuring two teams which will not make the Super Bowl are.
Nevermind. Got you and that other guy with a 5 word name mixed up.
But what the hell are you talking about? Where do you see me saying any game is meaningless?
Superbowl chances aside (and both these team’s chances are as good as anybody’s), it’s still a game for control of the division, and it’s still Vikings-Packers. Add in the fact that it’s Brett Favre’s first game against the Packers and it’s easily the most interesting game of the week. ESPN has been hyping it like it’s a playoff game. The only way it could be any more interesting would be if it was being played at Lambeau.
Hey, butthead, wrong quote.
And you call yourself a football fan? Maybe you’ll find soccer or women’s golf more to your liking.
He can’t be serious. He’s gotta be saying that just to be a little snot here in the NFC North thread.
I didn’t saw the games were boring or not worth watching. I’ll certainly be watching, and hoping Rodgers eats Favre’s lunch. I just find it annoying that ESPN is hyping this game as though it were Colts-Pats in Week 14.
ETA: I am a little snot in all threads, TYVM.
This may be true. It’s going to be a long, slow suckfest for Brett Favre tonight, but it’s as meaningful as a game can be this early in the season in such a competitive division.
Well, alright. I guess given the last few Super Bowls you can’t rule out any winning team now.
Um, they hype football games. Once a week they hype them, you may have noticed. This is as big as game as a Week 4 game can be. Perhaps they should be talking about the week 16 Baltimore-Pittsburgh game instead?
Why? Neither of those teams is going to the Super Bowl either. 
I know you’re being a smart ass, and so was I, but I think it illustrates the flaw in the argument about “meaningful games”. Hell, even in Week 16 we may not be able to confidently say if those teams are contenders or not. With very few exceptions every game is equally meaningful unless you can predict the future.
Brett saves by a bogus interference penalty.
That was a good call. He totally grabbed on, and he wasn’t looking back for the ball.
How about that bullshit extra play they gave the Packers at the end of the half?
Wow, I actually think you believe what you type.
All the Favre haters can seriously PLEEEEEEEEEEZE shut the heck up for now. The man is playing very good football right now.
Thank you.
That said, I’d hate to play the Packers with a healthy O-Line, and hopefully we’ll get them again before they’re fully healthy. Rodgers is a hell of a QB with a lot of weapons at his disposal.
GB did a great job bottling up Peterson, but unlike the last two years, that isn’t enough to stop the Vikings offense. That is the difference Favre brings to the table and tonight we witnessed a game we would have most likely lost prior to his arrival. Thinking about it - last week was like that, too. 
Other thoughts:
I’m pissed about the bonehead bomb attempt on the 3rd down play near the end of the game. It added completely unnecessary drama to the end of the game.
Sidney Rice had his best all-around game as a pro tonight.
I couldn’t be happier that Winfield and Allen are on our team. They’re both bad-asses.
I agreed with the announcers that Kampman was rendered impotent in the 3-4 scheme. What a waste.
Peterson’s fumbling isn’t at the Culpepper level yet, but I’m getting whiffs of it. In tonight’s case I think it was just a hell of a play by Matthews rather than anything Peterson did wrong.
4-0 going into a road game at St. Louis. Let’s not overlook a crappy team.
Dude, you are insane. That was a crap call on the interference, though it’s moot since there was a offsides on the same play. And the play at the half was pretty obvious when they showed the endzone view, Grant was down with a tick left and Rodgers was calling the TO the entire play.
If you watch carefully on the replay, the DB had his hand on the WR’s back hip. As the ball is in the air, the receiver mysteriously turns his back to the ball and stumbles a bit as the DB pulls his hand around to make the play on the ball.
That might have been coincidence, but I doubt it.
It’s really a moot point as the other defensive penalty would still have been in effect.
