No, not The Republicans, this...

Wetlander might be right - Brady may be the only one to save us from another Pack SB.

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

From making it? Yes. Last time I checked the champs are still in it and they have the best QB in the league

I am with you. Been worried about this since week 14 when it was almost certain they would have home field advantage.
I dont see how they don't make it to the Super Bowl. The way their defense played yesterday I give them a more than 50% chance of winning it.
I desperately want to be wrong.

Packers winning the Super Bowl is best thing for Vikings fans. Puts more focus on the 44 year absence from the big game for this inept franchise.

"We" will find another excuse to be satisfied with mediocrity... You know, we have won the NFC North more than any team in the division and even won it twice the past 10 years! So we are doing great and "have the pieces in place"

No it won't.  I'll get slapped by my Packer buddy if they win another Super Bowl before the Vikings do.

I also think the Packers will be the NFC rep with a good chance of beating either the Bills or Chiefs.  

Before the Playoffs I bet:

Packers vs Chiefs and win $120
Packers vs Bills and win $350

Of course I hate the Packers but I saw how well they were coming together and had to use my head not heart.  So Ideally, it is a Pack/Bills Super Bowl (I win my $350) and the Bills smack down Rodgers and Packers.  That is my ideal end to this god-awful year/season.

My son said to me, if the Packers win do they fire Zimmer. I said no because they are sticking with him. But it shows the importance of the qb position when you see who is left in the playoffs. You gotta get that right and you have to have an OL. I want so badly for them to get beat, other than that whatever.

Yep and this loaded QB draft with 5+ 1st rounder this is the time to get that QB.  They don't come along when you want or when you need.  Seize the moment...........but we obviously won't.

And Zimmer supporters will sing the praises of continuity, talk about how bad Detroit is, and remind us of the scary days of Les Frazier...

Its scary to think that the only teams who have not made the super bowl longer than the vikings are the browns and Lions.

Now that made me laugh out loud. Insightful thing to say for a kid.

Because there are literally people out there whose evaluation of Zimmer rides not just on how he does, but on how the Packers do.

They looked really good on Saturday. Dynamic offense. 

Rooting hard for Tampa Bay to take them out but with the game at Lambeau, it will be tough. Hoping Brady has some more magic in him. If not, that’s gonna be a loooong 2 weeks leading up to the game. I’ll use the time to morph into the biggest Bills/Chiefs fan in the country.

He is very insightful. His record against the Packers is not good. You have to win the division games.
