Vikings win again

Ugh, another heart-breaking loss to the Vikings. It’s mostly heart-breaking because we lost to our most hated rival, the Minnesota Vikings, and the fact Brett Favre now plays for the enemy.

Thumbs Up

Clay Matthews looks like he’s going to be a really good linebacker.

I thought rookie LT TJ Lang did a pretty good job against a really good defensive end in Jared Allen.

I liked the intensity of the defense. They seemed to be playing with more passion than I’ve seen in the past.

Thumbs Down
I’m going to give Aaron Rodgers a HUGE thumbs down. I think he’s actually regressed. He appears scared to throw an interception and would rather take a sack than throw the ball away. He even appears scared to squeeze the ball into a small space. The coaching staff needs to address this immediately.

Special teams were atrocious. The Vikings were repeatedly starting with great field position due to Percy Harvin, while the Packers had Ahman Green returning kicks.

McCarthy abandoned the running game. Yes, the Vikings have a great run defense, but you have to keep them honest, and it would help Aaron Rodgers out immensely.

Mike McCarthy. I’m also giving Mike McCarthy and the coaching staff a thumbs down. They make adjustments way to slow, and this has been going on for a long time. I also think the coaches are responsible for all of the penalties. He needs to light a fire under these players asses, or get out of coaching. There should have been a coach right in Johnny Jolly’s face after that stupid head butt penalty.
