Pretty hard to stop the GB offense when they are allowed to hold I don't see anyone beating them sadly

Whenever Chad Greenway is near the ball, bad things always happen

Just like the roughing the passer bs call on brees in the saints game. That no-call on the holding for that Rodgers run killed the momentum and busted the game out of our hands.

Unbelievable how they on this same drive called a weak #### holding call on munnerlyn, then blatant holding that directly lead to the run with an official LOOKING at it and it isn't #### called.

But at the end of the day, we need to score more than 13 points every week to be competitive. Even if we manage to get another score in before the games over, that play just solidified the loss in my mind and everything else is just garbage time (would take a miracle now).

Number of plays is pretty even though. 55-51 in favor of GB.

Oh well, they made it interesting for 3.5 quarters, which is much more than I expected

I think they have a shot to win the next 2 games, we'll see

I wouldn't give up just yet. It's still just a two score game with 8 minutes left. They need a TD here and quick.

Honestly, I think that last game in Chicago was complete BS. The NFL should investigate it cause too many things happened there that blatantly favored the Bears.

This Vikings team isn't nearly as bad as that result would suggest. They aren't great, either, but they should be capable of taking anyone down to the wire and we're seeing that today against a very potent Packers team.

Nah, man! I'll admit we get a lot of BS calls against us, but nobody on our team was ready for that game. We played terrible and didn't deserve to win.

I think we played terrible cause the field was spiked and the Vikings players couldn't get their footing. That was just my impression, but if you can't get your footing, you can't cover and can't get separation. If the other team has their footing and you don't, it would look like one team wasn't ready and the other was.

I guess IMHO, the Bears just aren't that good, and in that game, they were SO much better than they've been all year that it wasn't just one team being ready and the other being not ready.
