    In all honesty, injuries have killed us. Very reminiscent of our championship team :emoji_wink:

    Vikings are probably the most injured team in the league yet they're doing alright so far.

    Imagine this packers team if Rodgers goes down. :'(

    They'd be fighting for the top draft pick at that point.

    Rodgers is probably responsible for more losses than wins this year

    True but he's also the only realistic chance they have to do anything.

    We're a game behind you guys. And we're gonna win the division. That's all I've got to say

    Lol so in other words you agree with me that they'd completely f---in s--- without him. It may have been a slight exaggeration to say they'd be fighting for the top pick but they sure wouldn't get more than 6 wins max, probably more like 4.

    Also you're technically 2 games back, Vikes got the tie breaker.

    up until last night........it had been like 12 games since rodgers had 300 yards or more..........he broke that streak last night.

    but he had FIFTY-SIX passing attempts.......that's too many. they aren't going to get too far if they keep that up. too predictable

    my head hasn't gotten too big about the vikings (yet). i like this team a lot, but its still kinda early and road games are usually tough. plus, the eagles are coming off 2 losses, so they aren't going to be in a good mood.

    our defense is legit, but the offense, at this stage, is OK at best. on top of that, most of our injuries have come on the offensive side of the ball and its NEVER a good thing when you've had as many o-line injuries as we have.

    i watched the eagles last game in its entirety. they didn't look good on defense at all. the redskins pretty much ran the ball at will on you guys. but the redskins have much more firepower on offense than we do.

    carson wentz has been very impressive, especially because in my view, the eagles don't have much around him. in other words, its not like he's got a stud RB or WR. no disrespect to guys like ryan matthews, jordan matthews, and nelson aghlor.........but they aren't stand out players and yet wentz has still performed beautifully.

    but i think him being a rookie QB and going up against a defense as good as ours....will be a bit too much for him to handle. however, i don't see this being an easy one and i think the vikings will squeak out another win by the score of 17-13

    I don't expect for us to win but I'll never pick against us so I'll go 20-17 Birds. You're guys defense is special, gonna be hoping for a few fluke plays to score. Hopefully our fans can get in Bradfords head. I think it'll be hilarious if they chant "We want Wentz" whenever Bradford is on the field like they did all preseason when he was still here.

    haha yeah, i noticed you never pick against eagles in pick ems. JMG is the same way with his redskins.

    i think one of the most important matchups will be brian robinson versus that rookie right tackle that is replacing lane johnson. he struggled last week against ryan kerrigan. but that's sort of expected because kerrigan is a pro bowl player and you guys right tackle is a rookie

    Their defense is amazing this year which is why I find it funny everyone is throwing the "you should have kept Bradford" at me although he is doing his job. My gut tells me to agree with you and that the vikings are going to stomp us but my head is saying otherwise. Im hopeful that the defense will throw away that god awful wide-9. Coming off of two losses, playing at home against the QB we traded away to allow our rookie to step in and shine... I want to think we are hungry for this one and going to go out and get it. I guess we will see.

    hopefully they give him help this week. Doug has done a great job stepping in and coaching but that was one of his worst decisions to date
