    i watch it, The Packers need to lay the overtime bogey and get the job done before Rodgers gets to old, one ring is not enough for one of the best QBs who ever played the game

    Good win for the Vikes opening the stadium last night.

    Despite struggling with the Packers best 2 players, pass interference and uncalled offensive holding.

    we were crap tbh, long season ahead unless the offence starts firing, looks like the nfc north could be poor division this year

    TBF tho you were only as good as our D allowed you to look. Hopefully we can follow the Broncos model with stifling defence making up for a below average offence. Still a long way to go in the North, Packers get 4 straight at home now, I will be happy if we end up with matching records after those games.

    Packers offence has been off for over a season, If Nelson gets back to pre injury form and Rodgers gets his mojo back we will be ok but two big ifs, ps your offensive line looks very ordinary and you've lost your RB to serious looking injury, tough times ahead for the Nfc north, still could be worse, could be a Bears fan

    Our O line has been horrible for years and is by far the biggest weakness on the team.

    Hate to say it but Peterson being out may be a blessing in disguise, he looks like age may have caught up with him.

    Without him teams will stack the box less and open things up, it will allow us to go with more shotgun and spread looks, when Peterson was suspended 2 seasons ago Asiata and Mckinnon combined for a decent amount of yards.

    played for the Redskins, nicknamed diesel because he wasn't the fastest but he was strong and hard to stop, lots of torque

    That's him
    William Perry was another of the same ilk but he looked twice the height and weight.
    Riggins I remember being the man for Washington as Dan Marino was for the Dolphins.
    With all the sports and footie on these days, especially Sunday, I don't feel the enthusiasm to watch the NFL any more except perhaps a couple of the playoffs and SB is always a spectacle.
    Once you start to watch a few games tho it becomes addictive.

    Who are your tips for the SB this year Packerman, assume the Packers of course?

    Re: American football?

    I'd sooner watch The Real Housewives of Gilfach Goch or similar shite than American fecking football.

    TV fans of a sport played thousands of miles saying 'we' and 'us'. Worra load of bollox!
