Chargers seem to be legit if they can play like that against the 9ers.

Now...if only the refs wouldn't have jiped the Packers in the first quarter of their game it might have actually been fair.

Aren't the Packers #1 in the League right now? 8/1 or something?

For their (Vikings) second touchdown, there was a call on Tyrone Williams for Pass Interf that kept the drive alive. They called it even though it was questionable. In the Packers next drive, a Viking defenderd did the same types of things Williams did out in the open; no flag.

There were two false start flags in a row when the Packers were backed up around their own 20 yard line. The Vikings Defensive end was jumping into the neutral zone and Earl Dotson was simply reacting. Replays showed the Viking drew Dotson off-sides both times in a row. You'd think the refs would be smart enough to see it the second time. Farve was visably hot.

There were a few other not-so major calls that didn't end or keep a drive alive that I was pretty hot about.

The Packers are now 8-2. It might have actually been a close game if the refs didn't go 0-8 in the first quarter on calls.

dont forget about the 3 interceptions, and the almost 2 more interceptions. the good -ol-brett threw. But the still have 8-2 record so i guess he cant complain or anybody else for the matter. but i got to give it to brett for that tackle on the one though doesn't look like he takes any s*** from anyone.

the niners/chargers game was cool all the way up until cortez blew that kick. that guy sucks!

[doctorgonzo]

I don't think the Packers have much to argue about, considering the fact that the Vikings were flagged for roughing the passer whenever they breathed on Favre, and they were awared a fumble near the end that replays show Culpepper fell on.

It wasn't bad calls that doomed the Packers. Favre just doesn't play well in the dome. They lost last year there to a bad Vikings team, and they lost to a bad Vikings team again this year.

Favre just doesn't play well in the dome.

That does hold true for Favre. He's not himself in the dome. Get him in Lambeau though, and he's arguably the best QB in the NFL today. If I were building my own team from the ground up, he'd be my starter with no hesitation.

Pity they had to lose to a team with one of the worst players in the NFL (Moss). I wouldn't hire him for dog catcher.

[TimPoet]

He's my starting quarterback in my Fantasy Football league :D
So is LaDanian Tomlinson... :) :) :)

At least you guys aren't Redskin fans. We were up 17-10 and managed (somehow) to let the Giants kick 3 field goals in a row to come back and beat us 19-17. :( Then, to top it off, our kicker has a chance to win it in the last part of the game. Does he make it? Noooooo. His foot (supposedly) slips slightly so he doesn't get enough air under it and the Giants block our last hope. Aaaarrrrrrggghhhh! And everyone was saying how Spurrier was gonna turn our team around this year. hehe yeah right. We suck just as bad as we always have; since the early 90's anyway. Oh well, I'm not gonna throw the book at Spurrier until he has at least 3 or 4 years coaching to get his system going. If we still suck after that time, then it's "Joe Gibbs, please come back to us" time. :)
