What a great year to be a fan and to go to these games as well. 

USB was rocking all game, playoff energy. 
Fewest Packer fans I have seen there - maybe ever 
My hats off to Flores who put together a plan that made Love look pedestrian most of the game. I think he had 60 or 80 some passing yards into the 3rd. 
I sure wish we could run the ball better 
I was more impressed with Packer D then their offense
That game should not have been as close as it was at the end. Vikings are clearly the better team
Darnold has now outdueled just about every other QB he has played
116 QBR with 3 td's today - amazing 

Jeffersons catch should have sealed the deal
God bless Akers for that shoestring catch at the end - incredible
Hopefully Jones is ok

14 wins and 9 in a row....I dont think they have won more than 9 in a row since 75?

Go 9'ers!! 

SKOL Vikings!!

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

Awesome you were at the game! The energy definitely felt like a playoff game! Great to hear there were less GB fans than usual, definitely could not hear them much.

Agree on all your points! The Akers catch ended up saving the game, was nervous when they got the 2 point conversion thinking of how it could come into play so to not give them that chance was so huge.
Major props to KOC for being aggressive and going to win the game in the 4th quarter instead of trying to run clock.
Did not see any kind of holding on the Jefferson catch and they never showed it, pretty questionable.
KOC said Jones had a thigh injury in first quarter, but he kept playing, wonder if he was unable to go or if they were concerned that with the injury that ball security could be a bigger issue.
Great to see Nailor step up and have a great game, really makes a huge difference to have the 3rd WR threat.
This team has a lock of character on both sides of the ball and really resilient. Much more balanced team than what we went into the playoffs in 2022 with.
Love their attitude and focus, they don't seem to care what our history is, creating their own history.

I don't think I've ever heard the Bank on TV for a Packer's game as loud as that one....wowzer. When Gink and Cashman got the sack, the place exploded. What a fun game, although of course a little unnecessarily stressful at the end. But the good guys prevailed and so did the better team. A sweep.

I was at the Minny Miracle game vs Saints. It was close to that. 

I read where Flores moved to a shell D at the end of the game...Just keep everything in front of you thing. 

I hate when they do that.

I like KOC's week to week mantra - go 1/0 this week. ITs worked all season.
