Damn.....


I was going to play Minn but now I see Vue is on them. Cannot go with Minn now. If Vue got paid for picking losers he would be a millionaire. Instead like I always say

FADE THE VUE make yourself a millionaire!!!

GB LARGE AND NASTY

This game needs to be monitored right up until kickoff before making a play. Somebody knows something that hasn't been announced yet.
 THAT'S VERY astute of you H.J.

The line is 8 so the question is can Rodgers beat whatever the Vikings field, on a short week, at Lambeau, and by more than a 2-pt converted TD? Me thinks so. GB -8.

you think the line would have moved from 9.5 to 7.5 if bridgewater was questionable? - I think not

Well,TB did practice and is officially questionable now to start for Vikes. .I would not start this kid on a wet field with a bum nakle. He's the future QB. I know this is a divisional matchup but the season is still early,i would play Ponder here n let him take the beating,lol!

NOTE:
70% chance of thunderstorms at game time, with the rain starting in the early-to-mid afternoon and persisting into the early hours of Friday morning.

The Pack will feature the run tonite and not because of the rain. Historically Rodgers has been ineffective against Minnesota Coach Mike Zimmer's defensive scheme. Both Rodgers and McCarthy have said they will feature the run tonite because the Rain (convenient excuse ?) Zimmer has Rodgers number and knows how to shut him down. In my opinion one of the main reasons he got the job as coach (hire the guy that can shut down the best player in your division) Just my opinion. We will see. I can see Lacey having a great game if he can hold on to the ball

So....just woke up and decided to make a tiny first half play.....-5 1/2 on Packers......kind of a lot of points but everything seems like it's pointing to a Green Bay blow out.  I'm pretty certain GB scores on first possession make up the points right away......unfortunately for me.....I was sleepy headed and choose Minnisota by mistake(awwww)....but the NFL is tough and it's not like Minnisota are the RAiders or some terrible team....GB hasn't looked that great except for last week and they always beat the Bears so let's just take that game out of the equation....:).....I could just go the other way bigger and lose the juice but that goes against my principles!....lol.....soooo......let's go Minni + 5 1/2(first half)

Caution: Aaron Rodgers is 0-2 against Mike Zimmer and lost last year 34-30 with Zimmer at Cincy. 
Minnesota has a great running game and Green Bay has a terrible run D.
Rain in forecast all day and into tonite will make for a sloppy field and may cause fumbles or missed tackles
The factors mentioned as well as others points me in the direction of a high scoring game.
Best Bet: OVER

Green Bay - 34                                   Minnesota - 20

Packers -8                                       over 48

The home crowd is waiting to see a dominating Packer win. It could happen tonight. The colonel will be chilling up 2 bottles of Troeg's Hopback Amber Ales  Plus on the menu will be French bread pepperoni pizza with a side dish of extra spicy chicken bites.  Bring on the Purple people eaters,

Packers - Over

ColonelJim, do you still stick with your total knowing its a 100% chance of thunderstorms? Would like your opinion. I'm torn on the O/U which usually means stay away but I'm a sucker for parlays

Teasing down GB   

 

Idiot, ever try and catch a wet ball?

Green bay has worst run D in the league.....if it is raining, I see it being a run heavy game. I'm on Minny +9

A rainy game doesn't mean heavy run.  It's tough for running backs to get their footing and make cuts on a muddy field.

Although I jynx myself with every pick I post in here, I'm going with packers -7.  (15-9 record on the season so far)

Receivers don't make cuts? Rogers throws it hard and fast, His "Cannon" arm might not work so good in the rain. We will see lockasaurus. Nice record tho.
