We beat Green Bay

I am hoping that whatever happened at halftime during the Vikings/Packers game on Sunday will end up being the turning point for the whole season. I was very down on the team up until that point but in the big 2nd half comeback they looked like they were supposed to look all year long. I know that Green Bay is a horrible team but for those last 30 minutes of football it looked like a game between a championship caliber team and a horrible team. Daunte was phenomenal but I am still very hesitant to jump on the bandwagon, the true test will come this week when the Vikings play a tough road game at Carolina.
Now lets focus on the important thing. We beat the Green Bay Packers, no matter how bad they are that always feels good. I love seeing the look of defeat on Brett Favre's face and I would have loved to see the looks that some of the cheeseheads present on Sunday had. To me there is nothing more satisfying then a victory over the Packers. Given the circumstances, I would probably put this game in the top 3 games that I've seen against the Pack just behind the win at Lambeau on Monday Night in '98 and of course the playoff upset last year. As happy as I am to see the Vikings finally play well I am just as happy to see Green Bay sitting at 1-5 staring at 4 almost certain losses on the schedule. Can't wait for the Monday Night game at Lambeau later this year.
