Agree Idiot Fan. I just spent/wasted over 4 hours of my day watching what I believe is football but I have to question that now. Win or lose as a fan you just want a fair and honest outcome. Today we didn't come close to fair. The Matthews hit on the qb could be the straw that broke us the fans' back. The game should have been over at that point. Shame on the NFL if this is the product they want on the field.!!

Yes....exactly. I would like the NFL to tell me what IS a legal tackle and how this was any different than what happened to Aaron earlier. Also, i would like to see some of their bleeping lawyers tell us all how you are supposed to tackle without following through.

This happened in other games I watched this year and i'ts atrocious! I can't watch anymore of this and hear their BS explanation.

I agree some bad calls, but they're all subjective. I would hope that as the season goes on the refs improve.

I celebrated a win 3 or 4 times in that game, refs killed us. So did MM.

. Hope King is ok, we obviously need him

. Or OLBs are a mess

. Our D looked absolutely horrible in the 4th quarter ... 3 TDs and a 2 pt

. We can go 5-0-1 before the bye, unless our D collapses again

I paid $300 for Sunday Ticket. Still haven't been able to watch a game yet.

Is the NFL going to put a red Jersey on the QBs next?

After being a fan of the NFL since the early 70's I never thought I'd be there with you Idiot but it's starting to happen to me too. Sports is all about the highs and the lows, but the highs should stay highs and the lows should stay lows. Now after every play I find myself hesitating, rather than immediately cheering or cringing, as I wait to see if there is a penalty, was there a timeout, will it be overruled on the replay, etc.. Sports isn't supposed to be like that, I might as well record the game and watch the highlights, the instant drama is gone. I find myself having no interest in watching any other games that don't involve the Packers, and I used to be good for 5-6 games a week, and every single playoff game. Think about that Goodell.

You keep making good points like this, we’re gonna hafta upgrade you to Dummy Fan. ;)

Thought the same thing Idiot. After the CM3 call I thought to myself why am I even watching this? I turned the game off in OT .

It's a farce all to often with the outcome predicated by the whims of the refs who will call the same play one way and totally different the next time.

About mid-week we'll get a mea culpa from the NFL on the call leaving me to wonder why do I take any of this seriously.

BOZO NEEDS TO BE GONE and take MAThEws WITH HIM ROADS WAS BETTER T HIS

CPIT

MM .........wastes timeouts, passing with under 2 minute and 1st down and a lead, having QB f—- around and drawing penalties from both teams and wasting timeouts, retaining an inept ST coach, and giving absolutely inane press conferences.

Mashed Potato Mike is a bad coach. He should be terminated.

Yep, running the ball after the 2:00 minute warning, would have at least taken away two time-outs, but I agree that we needed a touchdown. Thought the best time to throw and go for the touchdown was when there was 2:05 on the clock and a 1st down. But, I don't blame MM here.

We went for the clincher and it did not work out. We should have won the game anyways.....but oops, forgot refs control the outcome in the NFL.

King looked really good in coverage to me. Hope his groin injury is minor.

In the first half Toomer seemed to be making a lot of tackles. I will be interested to see how he grades out.

Kenny Clark is a beast.

If the NFL is concerned about it's ratings, maybe let the players determine the outcome.

FACT. We were the better team today. The Vikings are exposed, they are who we thought they were. I am not afraid of the Vikings anymore.

Disagree on the defense. I think they played solid and made enough plays to win. There's nothing they could do about the officiating. It was 11 vs 18 on that field today. I found it interesting on the Adams TD pass from Rodgers that was called incomplete the refs had absolutely no problem with Harrison Smith drilling a defenseless receiver who made no football move in the helmet with his own helmet and shoulder pads. I promise you if that had been a Vikings receiver they would have called a personal foul.

You are correct, anyone watching knows the Packers were winning all day, those calls were crucial. It was like they were trying to keep it close to make up for all the expert predicting that Minnesota was going to win this. I realize calls can go either way, normal game bla bla bla...but that particular officiating group were worse than college refs.

Worst officiating in a Packer game since the Fail Mary. Seriously makes me wonder if the opening of gambling in all states had an effect on the calls. I'm usually not a conspiracy person, but if you want to affect a game, you don't get to the players, you get to the refs.

Usually these things even out over a game, but today the refs really leaned toward one side in every call.

I was so disgusted with the ref's roughing-the-passer call on Clay Matthews and non-calls on Aaron Rodgers' being roughed up a few times by the Vikings that I lost interest in watching the overtime. I just turned off the tv and found something else to do instead.

Does the NFL mete out punishments for the refs that perform badly? There should be a system of postgame evaluation of the refs that don't do their jobs properly.

The thing is, if MM had run the ball three times, people here would be furious saying, "typical MM takes his foot off the gas! He's got to go!" If Adams is able to hang on to that pass in the endzone, the game is over. Here we often want Mike to be bold and go for it. He went for the win there, and it just barely didn't work out. I was actually ok with it.

I concur, the NFL is imploding!

Are we seeing “rampant dumbassery”??

The thing is CM3 broke no NFL rule(s) on the roughing call. Just total overreacting by a boot-licking ref probably overwhelmed with trying to make sure the new rules are enforced.

Horrible judgement call on a play that need no adjudication.

So much for Pettine being our defensive savior.

Yes, Lphill....all in the last 4 minutes...

Lmao, when you sack him and pick him off and the refs give it back to them what do you expect. Get a realistic perspective. How many fu***g plays do you expect the defense to make? The refs gave the queens 2 TD's while saving Cousins @$$ several more times giving him plenty opportunities to pad his stats. Kirk Cousins is a good QB when you force him to make a mistake it has to count, he's not gonna keep making them over and over just because the refs bail him out on his previous ones.

the "vaunted" Vikings defense gave up over 350 yds. Do they suck too?

That's what I'm saying. The Packers' defense always makes every opposing QBs look like a future HOFer.

That, and the offensive line.

Gilbert, Brice, Alexander, King, Ha Ha and Jackson looked pretty good to me today.

MM didn't throw the flag on Matthews' legal hit on Cousins. MM didn't throw the flag on Lane Taylor, negating the Graham TD. MM had some iffy play calling, but when the refs are the problem, they should be called out. Bad officiating makes the game looked rigged.

Again, the refs are at fault. --- Give it a break.

Amen to that!!!!!

I wod be a great idea to have a tracker with video clips to show how inconsistent this is.

Regardless who made those play-calling decisions, they were simply bad calls. At that point of the game the Packers needed to run time off the clock and force the Vikings to use their timeouts. Calling pass plays helped the Vikings.

You are spot on sir!! an average Head Coach.

Hindsight doesn’t fix poor execution.

I don't think MM is a genius, but I don't think there's 16 head coaches who are better than him, either.

Mercedes Lewis has played 7 snaps. 11% usage vs. Kendericks 33%. Why the hell didn't we have him helping our OL against one of the best DL in football? I have 0 faith in MM's playcalling ability.

If Rodgers is changing MM’s good calls, maybe MM should manage his bad calling QB? MM is the problem either way!

Yes, they made a new rule.
Yet, No that should not have been roughing.
Lawyers.

He just does not care if he's fired. He just goes back to his normal 9-5 job.

I signed up for the NFL Sunday Ticket subscription today but I think i'll cancel. If the NFL is going to have officials dictate the outcomes of games what's the sense of watching?

That play was a doubled edge sword. Not only a 15 yard penalty, but took points off the board. Also wretched a beautiful Lambeau keep.

Let's be honest, your friend is lying to both you and himself.

No one is quitting the NFL because of a shitty call.

MM will drag this team down during season 2018 & then be fired. ... Finally.

DOM CAPERS!!!! (made you look. heh heh heh..............)
