Game 16: Vikings @ Packers - Sunday, January 2nd, 7:20PM CT

[sarcasm]You know what I look forward to most about SNF? Chris Collinsworth talking condescendingly about stuff he’s only like 70% accurate on….[/sarcasm]

 

You'd rather the ESPN crew were doing this?

 

I like Collinsworth.

 

Only my belief that Tirico is a fantastic PBP guy keeps me from despising the fact that I have to have the sound on the TV right now.

[Underachiever]

What will Aaron do with three weeks off after tonight? (Okay, he’ll have to practice some that third week)

[CheezWizHed]

Collinsworth has gotten better over the years, though. And he is still better than Troy/Buck.

 

Granted, I was yelling at him earlier when he said "Lazard just earned Rodger's trust" and I was reminding CC that Lazard has had it for a couple years now.

[wallus]

Love time.

[wallus]

Tough way for Minnesota to get knocked out of the playoffs but oh well.

 

Pound Dillon the rest of the game.

 

you obviously don't live in or near MN. I'm enjoying it.

 

Went to school years ago right near the WI/MN border and we enjoyed talking noise if our team won. I'm just saying it would be rough if we didn't have Rodgers in a game we needed to win.

[wildcat83]

Rodgers and Adams should be done, and other key starters shortly behind them. Minnesota is not scoring 4 times, if someone important gets hurt in the 4th quarter of this one it's going to be pretty hard to explain.

[RobertR]

This game is well in hand. The Vikings have shown nothing on either side of the ball tonight. I'm expecting a lot of Jones and Dillon in the 4th quarter.

 

Just don't turn over the ball.

[stalton]

Crosby is quietly up to 9 for his last 10

[OldHeidelberg]

Getting the bye in the NFC was surprisingly easy

Im hoping for no Jones/Dillon, they need to be benched too.

[PeaveyFury]

Someone get Zimmer something to cover his nose before it seriously falls off from frost bite.

[yourout]

That might be the best run after the catch I've ever seen from a center.

[young guns]

Stokes wanted no part in trying to tackle him lol.

[yourout]

Now the starters will get one more series for sure.

[wildcat83]

Crap, now you probably have to keep starters in for a drive. Stokes sure made a business decision on not tackling their center, jeesh.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Took Mannion 103 pass attempts to throw his first career touchdown pass.

[DuWayne Steurer]

No Collinsworth, those boots are also for shoveling pig crap....

[OldSchoolSnapper]

I must be the only guy in the world that has no issue with Buck, Collinsworth or Aikman.

[yourout]

Was really hoping Savage would take a step forward this year but if anything he took a step back

[CheezWizHed]

Yeah, me too. And I live in the MSP metro area. I've dealt with enough "the refs favor the Packers" and other whines that I'm OK with their season being crushed.

[DuWayne Steurer]

I must be the only guy in the world that has no issue with Buck, Collinsworth or Aikman.

 

I don't mind Buck and Aikman.

 

Collinsworth just says a lot of things (as pointed out by Peavey) that are factually incorrect. Like, a lot. And it's annoying.

[PinaMadness]

I must be the only guy in the world that has no issue with Buck, Collinsworth or Aikman.

No, you're not the only one. I don't understand how people can get all worked up about announcers.

[CheezWizHed]

I must be the only guy in the world that has no issue with Buck, Collinsworth or Aikman.

 

I have less of an issue with Joe Buck, but Aikman (for being a HOF QB) says a LOT of stupid football things. As in flat wrong, stupid things.

 

Still, the all-time worst announcer I ever remember was Jerry Glavine. Wow was he bad. And don't hate me... but Madden/Summerall the last few years on the air was brutal also.

[FVBrewerFan]

I mean, Phil Simms didn't even have the down/distance right half the time.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Nobody did a tv game like the legendary Keith Jackson. Let's hopefully agree on that.
