Vikings vs Packers: Pre-Game Thread

Bradford is already making throws Bridgewater can't.

Or at the very least hasn't. He certainly has a much better arm though. Bradford has looked pretty good at times in this game so far.

Interesting first half. I don't have any real amazing thoughts except I got a kick out of the back to back commercials with the Bo Techno Bowl commercial and the old guy telling Peyton to keep working as long as he can. Lol

I'm pretty sure that throw to Diggs leading to the FG is a throw Teddy couldn't make.

Injury history on Bradford is one of the biggest concerns many fans have. And we already had a scare with his left hand.

Bradford has looked pretty good so far he looks lien the best QB on the field...so far...

Jared cook has a chance to be a nice player for the Packers. He has talent and experience.

This Diggs Bradford thing looks good which is especially good with AP not looking good with an injury.

That was a quite the game.

Bradford and Diggs...wow

Waynes ended up with an INT after some real struggles which was great.

I was very happy for Waynes. Some of those calls were rough, but they were going at him. Such a great game. I guess we were preparing for life without AD but not this soon. Good so far on the Bradford experiment.

What a show they put on at the new stadium last night, and a great win! We don't know the extent of APs injury, but frankly with as poorly as he has been running the ball, the loss doesn't seem as big as it would have in previous years. I recognize defenses will play us differently with Peterson out, but Bradford seemed as capable last night of making plays whether AP was in there or not. He may have to be more than a "game manager" if this offense is going to be successful (and he was last night), but ultimately this team will go as far as its defense takes them.

And the defense was stellar last night...if healthy, they can challenge for top defense in the league. What was most heartening was the two CBs who had the worst games (Neuman with his penalties and dropped interception in the end zone, and Waynes with his loose coverage), made the big plays on second and third down with the game on the line. We still need Rhodes to come back, but those plays were really good to see.

Yeah, their defense is something special. Think about the three other fumbles they forced and didn't recover! It could have been even more dominant.

Their O-line was terrible though. I mean, they were literally shoved around like a bunch of rag dolls by the Packer D-line, so I can't even tell if AP has lost a step or not because there were literally no holes to even get through. Either way, he's 31 years old and it's just really hard for a RB that age to be anything more than average. Perhaps taking him out of the picture opens up the playbook a bit and makes the offense less predictable.

Bradford was amazing. The accuracy and touch on his throws were impressive. And Diggs is looking like the next great Vikings WR.
