Allen will play
November 9th, 2008 – 10:50 AM by Chip ScogginsDefensive end Jared Allen will play today. The teams just announced their inactives.
Allen will attempt to play through pain after suffering a third-degree sprain of the AC joint in his right shoulder last week. It will be interesting to see how effective he will be with that bad shoulder.
The Vikings inactives are cornerback Marcus McCauley, tight end Garrett Mills, linebackers Erin Henderson and Dontarrious Thomas, tackle Marcus Johnson, wide receiver Robert Ferguson and defensive tackle Letroy Guion. John David Booty is the third quarterback.
This is the second consectuive game Ferguson has been inactive. Judd reported on Friday that Ferguson has asked the team for his release. We’ll see how his situation develops over the next few days.
The Packers inactives are cornerback Pat Lee, running back DeShawn Wynn, linebacker Brandon Chillar, defensive end Jason Hunter, linebacker Danny Lansanah, tackle Breno Giacomini and guard Allen Barbre. Brian Brohm is the third quarterback.
– Defensive end Kenechi Udeze is expected to be on the field for the pregame coin toss. Udeze underwent a bone marrow transplant in July after being diagnosed with leukemia last February.

That’s excellent news about Jared but I just read Jugg’s story titled “Frerrote Enjoying More Freedom”. But it says Gus has only been allowed to audible “twice — in 390 plays. An underwhelming .005 percent of the time.” OMG, that should be reason enough just by itself to fire Chili. No matter what he sees on the line of scrimmage he’s not allowed to switch to a draw play or screen pass even if Chili had those plays in his menu. Unbelievable.

I meant Judd’s story.
[…] Jared Allen is going to do the tough-guy football warrior thing today and attempt to play through a 3rd degree sprained shoulder. This will prove either heroic or foolish depending on how he holds up the rest of the season. I’m guessing that, if it weren’t the Packers, he wouldn’t be playing. In other news…Robert Ferguson has been deactivated for the second straight week, a move that will only make him cry harder to be let go by the team. Apparently Robert thinks he has a chance to catch on somewhere else. There’s a big market out there for muscle-bound 4th receivers?

Jay- This sh!ts for you biatch!
Im really happy for Udeze, keep on fighting man
If Childress goes 0-6 against the Packers he should be fired.
Keep on living in the past Bardrunky.
Wasn’t that Brett Favre who through that pass Bardrunky? He was the MVP runnerup last year wasn’t he, whatever happened to him? Oh yeah… BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAHAHAHAH…
Chances of victory? Unkown. Chances of booing Childress - 100%

thevikingage,
0-6 against the pukers is not a big deal to management, because this Klink is their coach.
Unfortunately he could lose the remaining games against the Bears and the Lions and keep his job
already in field goal range. That’s all we need.
TD Vikings!!!!!
I wouldn’t have called that, Chili out smarted me.
Two guys looking very good on opening drives….
Rex Grossman for Bear
Ricky Williams for the Fin
Vikings 27 Peckers 24 Bartender pees his pants, Chili has friends again
Jay- Don’t even go there. The Packers quarterback situation is a million times better than what the Queenies have. You continue to reach new levels of loserism.
Nothing is as good of a sight as a pucker in the turf. Esp. Rodgers.
Bartender, GET ME A BEER, NOW!!! Two franchises going different ways. Remember all the “we’ll be better off without Favre” talk. Hilarious homerism. You have to be kidding me. Best part? Favre hates the Peckers and the Peckers hate him. Just about the money, nothing else.
Was Fererotte hit as he threw?
Ha-ha!
AJ Hawk has girl hair.
Ever see the Lameboo Leap, cant remember who, getting his junk grabbed, BY A DUDE???
Why did Longwell, Sharper, and Farf leave Green Bay? sausage perty. yag.
Make that sausage party. as in no women.
Hey Barftender!!! GIMME A BEER!!!safety
Ouch. I hope Charles Gordon can come back next year - that foot isn’t supposed to bend 180 degrees backward like that. At least it wasn’t a Packers injury bounty hit that did him in. Get well soon, man.
So go Vikings - kick some Puker butt. Bonus point for making Aa-Rod look like the second coming of Dan Orlovsky in the end zone. Nice pass, dope.
Judd and Chip -
How many times does Childress have to demonstrate his complete inability to grasp basic football strategy before people in the media start calling him out?
Seriously, what he just did coming into the 2 Minute Warning shows, beyond any reasonable doubt, he has no clue how to properly manage a game.
take a knee coach!! Great clock management!!!
God you people are never happy. YOu ahve the lead morons.
Klink is allowing the pukers to hang around and will lose this game for his inability to manage the two-minute drill.

Barftender-constipated loser.
