I hope Winfield will be able to start and finish that game. Sherels isn't up to handling it. Jefferson didn't look very good. _________________ http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/9633/av5e.jpg |

I'm thinking Robinson will get looks inside at practice this week. _________________

i'm thinking Frazier could suit up and play better than our backup CB's. i mean, did you see him sprint out on the field after the officials on McCarthy's challenge flag incident? _________________

| Quote: | I hope the Minnesota Vikids come to play on Saturday. The real team only plays well in Minnesota. Its like watching a highschool team when Minnesota is on the road.
Our WRs suck. Michael Junkins is good for 5-8 yard passes, Devin Aromashadow is no good. Its literally like throwing to a shadow. Stephen Durrrrrrrrrrrton can only block, not catch. He has no field awareness at all. Jarius Wrong is no Percy Harvin, and Jerump "really high" Simpson is no more than a #4 WR in the NFL, and thats why he's our #1. (There are 2 reasons why Jerome Simpson is Jerump "really high").
Other than that, we field a pretty solid team, minus QB, DT, OLB, MLB, Opposite Safety to Harrison Smith, CB, 2nd string TE and Tobias Gerhart.
This game will come down to who turns the ball over less, and when Christian Ponder is your Qb, you just never know. |

It was weird seeing Frazier show any kind of emotion. I'm so used to the Leslie Frazier stare at this point. _________________

Hoping not to offend anyone by saying this, but I feel that changing peoples' names to make fun of them or to diminish them in order to make a point is childish, immature, and stupid. If a point cannot be made without attacking someone's name, then perhaps the point needs to be re-thought, reconsidered, and clarified before being expressed.
P.S. The message above that I'm referring to was an unattributed quote and I'm not going after anyone in particular. This happens a lot in everyday discourse about news, politics, and government, too, and I loathe it equally there. _________________

| We've got to find a way to slow down Rodgers, we can't expect to score 37 points again. |

Our special team tackling needs to be better
Our DB tackling needs to be better & the cover-2 cant allow that big throw.
I want to see more AP next week on the potentially tricky surface.
All this is doable. _________________

Will winfield be available this game?
Never really settled down enough yesterday to hear the reason he wasn't playing...
Was it more precautionary? |

it is going to be COLD on Saturday night, which definitely gives us the advantage.
AP and Gerhart need to combine for 45+ carries. (30+ for AP) and Ponder needs to run for what he can. If we can run the ball like we did yesterday and the defense plays like they did, we will win this again. _________________
