Green Bay Packers comeback bid comes up short in short-handed loss to Minnesota Vikings

Jordan Love made his return, carried the offense, but also threw three interceptions as the Packers fell to the Packers 31-29. Green Bay trailed 28-0 at one point, fought valiantly to get back but made too many mistakes to overcome. We react to it all LIVE on YouTube after the game.

Packers played a flawless second half. Good for them.

[festushaggen]

Lets be honest fans here. The Packers stunk for 3 quarters and blew the comeback with turnovers. The Vikings played much more disciplined on both sides of the ball and took advantage. They were the better team today.
No excuses. Let's hope for a better Packers performance next week.

[kitfistosdentalplan]

Such cope. Greenbay never had a chance to take the lead in this game after their first drive. You said they had every opportunity but thats dishonest. They’re lucky they didn’t loose 34-7 like the Texans did to the Vikings, Greenbay only moved the ball when the Vikings went to prevent situational defense. 6:40 the team that beat the Packers was the Vikings going up 28-0 in the first half. Better get used to chasing games against Minnesota

The kicking statistics are almost unbelievable. GB is the only team in the league so far to miss a FG under 40 yards. Only one other NFL kicker has missed two FG’s under 50 yards. Our kicker has missed four. It’s killing us.

[garytheprogressivelibertar]

I feel like there should been benny hill music playing in this game everytIme the packers had the ball !

[davidschurman]

GB pass rush in the first half, non-existent. The quarterback picked GB secondary apart.

[michaelgray]

Why can’t we find a kicker who can not miss so many FG in 1 game this is awful 6pts would have won the game he’s freaking bad, and you can’t expect Nixon to cover JJ Jordan Morgan was a wasted 1st round pick they should drafted a CB, Morgan would have been there in the 3rd round

Coulda woulda shoulda is virtually every game every weekend in the NFL. Best team won on Sunday. I suspect Wk 17 will be different.

[bthome]

There is a 6:13 flight from Green Bay to Phoenix. Connect through Chicago on American Airlines. Should I book that for Mr Narveson?

[BobHunskor-udux]

Vikes backup punt returner gave Pack ultimate gift right before half otherwise game is 28-0 at half.
Darnold interception when Vikes inside the 10.
Vikes were their own worst enemy. If not for hurting themselves, Vikes beat Pack by at least 20 points.

[izik]

So tired of bukowski every year spreading propaganda about how great the defense is going to be during training camp and heading into the season 😂😂😂😂

[jonathanhawks]

Lol, as a packers fan, MLF was outcoached. You don't go down 28-0 at home and get to say you WEREN'T outcoached

[tomwanner]

Also, Love made some bad decisions and throws but catch the damn ball. Wicks had 4 balls hit him right in the hands.

[eightiesbaby]

Just like you guys say a play here or play there you could have won we can say a play here and a play there it's not even close.. Woulda coulda doesn't matter.

[VietTran-dx]

That’s the coaching staff fault. Two games with Jordan Love holding to the ball forever and they couldn’t script it any better to get the ball out of his hands quicker? What happened to all the motions?

[SanguineCamper]

Time to bench Rashon Gary. His production in the last 11 games fell off a cliff. He's out of excuses. Peter, devote a story this week to Gary's disappearing act.

[adamdavis]

Packers Win - this is the best team GB has had in 30 years. MLF can out coach anyone. Best team in the NFC!

Packers lose - Love sucks, trade him. MLF can’t win in the playoffs. Gary is a bust. Trade everyone for picks.

[Darkboi]

No no no I can’t hear about the defense not getting critical stops. Vikings go 3 and out after the half the offense does nothing. Defense gets a pick after that the offense does nothing. The defense forces another 3 and out the offense finally gets points now it’s 28-14. Defense gets the TO again they score it’s 28-22. They should have won after that but 2 silly TOs was the difference.

[RyanRudominer]

Can Daniel Whelan kick field goals? Asking for a friend.

[Steve-Loring]

Once again DERPY PACKERS FANS. “Should have sat Love”

Deeerp. He had a decent game with some bad plays. Big deal. Still almost won with an amazing performance in the second half.

Just sit down and watch the game. You know nothing.
