Vikings at Packers (1 Viewer)

[Donnybrook]

OMG. A forth offside penalty against the Vikings this half. As if that's not irritating enough, the Vikings committed a PI on the free play so the Pack gets their cake and get to eat it.

Sometimes the cake is not a lie.

Call it even refs.

Was just following the game online a bit and on here yesterday before I left for the 4 hour trip back to my house. Ended up watching the game some today.

Id think by reading posts like this early on and the crying from the Vikings fans that it was that lopsided.

Funny how none of you mention the PI on Nelson on that first Packer drive on the offsides free play.

Nor the facemask on Cobb missed.

Nor the ridiculously weak holding call that brought back what should have been TD #2 to Jones? Lang did not "hold" Robison until the ball was already out of Rodgers hands...even then it was a weak call to say he even "held" him.

FYI, I was referring to the no call when Packers DB has arms around him Aromashadu like Devin was wearing a cape. It was on 3rd and 4 and the hold prevented a 1st down. Next Packers drive Raymond gets called for PI when he brushed up against Cobb when he going for the ball. Of course that was when the game was close and before Ponder went into total meltdown mode.

2 things...the one on Aromashadu was as bang bang of a play as the one on Cobb. The difference was the angle of the ref.For the Vikings...the ref sees no arm around the WR...and the play broken up.

For the Packers to get the call...the ref saw it from behind...where it looked like the DB went over his back (and the ref even used the words...over the back when calling it I believe). In addition...I believe there was offsides on the Cobb one anyway. The real issue there should have been the poor spot.

I don't think the refs called anything in favor of GB given the missed calls they already had...and there were some very ticky tack holding calls against GB that I have seen not called so many times...both on the TD to Jones that got called back...and another run later in the game.
