Packers get huge win but their weaknesses have been exposed

According to oddsmakers from online sports book Mybookie.ag, the Vikings are 1-point home favorites versus the Packers after Green Bay opened as 1-point favorites.

Bridgewater threw for 296 yards, his highest total since Week 6 against Detroit, in Minnesota’s 30-13 loss to the Green Bay Packers.

Jones and his hoodie came up huge for the Packers offense on their next offensive drive, making three big catches that capped an 80-yard spurt for Green Bay. Adrian Peterson, on the other hand, had a rough night, carrying the ball 13 times for 45 yards, one touchdown, and one lost fumble.

Bridgewater was briefly knocked out of the game with a left shoulder injury in the second quarter when Packers outside linebacker Julius Peppers sacked him and Packers defensive end Mike Neal landed on his non-throwing shoulder. “This line has been all over the place, opening at Chicago -1, moving to a PK, then Denver as high as -2 and then Chicago -1.5”. Peterson had 203 yards on 26 carries with the lone touchdown.

The Chargers (2-8) lost their sixth straight. “The only thing I’m focused on is just when I get an opportunity, make the most of it”.

Tight Ends:Coby Fleener, Indianapolis Colts: Fleener might be Matt Hasselbeck’s favorite target. The Broncos still have a three game lead in the AFC West, but there’s little room for error as both the Chiefs and Raiders remain in striking distance. Over that same same spell he has still thrown eight touchdowns and just one pick – he is Aaron Rodgers after all – but the fact that the chemistry between quarterback and receivers isn’t quite there (he has the lowest completion rate of his career in 2015) may cause trouble come the playoffs.

Crosby connected from 42, 47, 40, 42 and 52 yards. McCarthy said Montgomery, who has been out the last three games, didn’t finish practice Thursday…. “I’m lucky to be teammates with that guy”.

The Seahawks improved to 5-5 to keep their wildcard hopes alive, and Rawls had a field day after being moved into the starting line-up when Marshawn Lynch was declared inactive before the game with an abdominal injury. “We’ve got to find a way to finish one of them”.

“I was so impressed”, said punter Tim Masthay, who is Crosby’s holder. “But the excitement is always there”.

The early-season optimism brought on by two convincing victories should have faded when quarterback Tony Romo sustained a broken clavicle, but instead it persisted as a result of the N.F.C. East. Cowboys players and fans steadfastly believe that there is no hole so deep that Romo can’t lead them out of. The biggest was a short pass that Frank Gore – no spring chicken at 32 – took to midfield for 31 yards.

Assignment, Adrian Peterson: Suspect at the start of the season, Green Bay’s run defense passed early tests against Marshawn Lynch, Jamaal Charles and Carlos Hyde. “They did a great job of containing us as a group”, Peterson said.

“We knew that coming into this game that was going to be one of their points of emphasis”, Bridgewater said. It can’t get any worse, and they’ll have a chance to right the ship in a hurry if they can win when we watch the Packers Vikings game live streaming or on TV today.

But playing for three quarters, Tretter held up well. He left the game in the second quarter with a left shoulder injury, but returned in the second half. Minnesota’s five-game winning streak is snapped, as they fall to 7-3. He went 18-of-32 for 265 yards, no scores and two turnovers. Kyle Rudolph led the way for the Vikings’ receivers, putting up the first 100-yard game of his career.

The struggles of the offense continued for the majority of the first half. In the receiving end, Stefon Diggs had 46 yards in two receptions.
