streaming device install and stay connected with your Minnesota Vikings and local news with Fox local from fox9 he's the analyst Ven and of course KFAN Pete bich joining me now Pete watching film room again one of my favorite shows throughout the week on the ven the Vikings Entertainment Network you talk about the Packers and their underneath coverage and how jiren Hall can maybe take advantage of that oh yeah underneath meaning you know between the hash marks and below the safeties and and um you take a look at what Baker Mayfield was a was able to do he had eight completions that totaled 189 yards and a touchdown and these these eight completions were all on the linebackers period all in the linebackers across the middle so you know Quay Walker struggles in zone coverage he's an unbelievably good run Defender and a very very good Blitzer uh but they just don't do I mean this game I watched this film two weeks ago and I said I'm going to I'm putting TJ hackinson on 10 receptions and and 100 yards with a with a couple TDS in this game so the middle of the field is just going to be absolutely there for the taking and you know hopefully jiren Hall and that you know for a Young quarterback that's probably where you want him to keep the football is short in the middle of the field and they're going be some I think there's going to be a lot of big opportunities there tonight Packers run defense 30th in the NFL now Tai Chandler had a great game a couple weeks ago just 17 yards total net on the ground for the Vikings last week do you think this will be a big game on the ground uh it well it could be and here's the thing with this packer defense is that their defensive front especially the starters uh Preston Preston Smith Devonte Wyatt uh TJ Slayton uh who's been he's a little bit nicked up Kenny Clark ran Gary they're good those five front those guys Five Guys up front are good Devonte White's been struggling as of late and then you get the the rookie Lucas vaness in there so you you have your work cut out and like I said before Quay Walker very physical he's good against the Run Isaiah McDuffy is uh probably going to be playing tonight because dandre Campbell's out so mcduffy's been playing better so running the football is going to I think be a necessity to open up the Play action and the things behind the linebackers uh but if we can get a good if that running game can get going uh for Tai Chandler it's it's again it's not going to be that easy I think to run against this front Pete real quick one here for you the matchup denil Hunter versus Rasheed Walker that definitely feels like Victory towards Hunter yeah well either way if you goes the other side it's Zack Tom and then on the other side it's Rasheed Walker so yeah we def we definitely need some wins there all right Pete burett thank you so much buddy appreciate it and happy uh New Year's Eve to you as well Vikings football Sunday continues coming up next

Kramer and when you finally got here what was it about Bud Grant that you that stood out to you how was what was it like playing for a guy like him well I bet you that half of the people that he ever coached he never said a word to him we've heard that before he was uh a quiet leader but you knew who was the boss oh yeah but he told me he said whatever you need to do to keep your hands warm I'll look the other way so when you finally got your opportunity to get in you know you had some NFL action in 77 what was uh what was that like when you finally got your opportunity to get out there and and play tarington broke his ankle I think against uh it was 24 to3 in the fourth quarter to San Francisco three touchdown passes later you win the game 28-27 I think that's the game where Tommy Kramer's name became synonymous with two-minute Tommy and everything else that went on because that was a game to remember at met Stadium oh yeah that that was a hell of a game I mean that doesn't happen it didn't happen back then because the game wasn't quite as crazy as it was now and then you had a guy named Ahad Rashad also joining the team at that point and you seem to have a connection that eventually led to the 1980 Miracle at the Met play but uh talk about Ahad a little bit in your relationship and and Scott studwell too because those are two your favorite teammates yeah we all three of us kind of live down there in Lakeville MH and so I'd take Rashad over to the school that's right across the road and I've said okay they if you see this coverage and then we don't have the plate for that then this is what I want you to do you know just move it out of the way and so sure enough we get a touchdown right Tommy one of one of the questions I have is what do you remember about the Miracle at the Met what what about that game-winning play and what was your mindset leading up to it because it's really iconic uh yeah it's it's all about winning you know and that's all it is and so you go in and call the play and all right we're going to play Squadron right Squadron hook and lateral and that's when censor bounce it back to Teddy Brown he's coming in a wheel route underneath here and then he's Teddy looks it up at the clock got to get out of bounds now three or four seconds that was it so I told but I told them before that these boys are scared of us of I'm telling you MH and sure enough they go out there Loft it up there give them a little time to get it towards the end zone so I just threw it higher and's going to come down and right around the goal line that's Tommy Kramer's skull stories with Pete bich and Mark Rosen you can catch that on Friday 6:30 p.m. on KF you can catch Ben lever on KF a bunch of times throughout the week we're going to be

football heard here on FM 100.3 KF the a fan welcome back Vikings football Sunday I'm mus here we are at US Bank Stadium up here in the broadcast Booth that's where I'm located and down on the field Ben Liber which by the way he'll be on the sideline throughout the game brought to you by US Bank the official Bank of the Minnesota Vikings and Ben I'm going to guess that between the injuries and turnovers the Minnesota Vikings can't wait for 2023 to be over I know I I hate to look that far ahead but I mean that's the reality is man we are a banged up group you know the thing is that we still we still have an opportunity man we still got an opportunity to win this game win the next game and get in the playoffs especially with the Seahawks losing yeah absolutely let's talk about the blitz cuz everyone loves talking about that with B flow's defense how we're almost at like 50% but the thing is is that does it actually generate enough pressure at a uniquely High rate not really when you look at the pressures that the Vikings are able to get on what's happening there well that's that's just it you know I think that a lot of offenses have kind of figured us out at least at least block us up a little bit so we don't have the quarterback pressures and we're not harassing the quarterback and yeah we might get there a little bit late but by that time the ball's already been made uh made a decision down the field and and they're completing passes so we we have to do a better job of disguising you know stimulating pressures dropping back you know just confusing them versus always having to get pressure because that's the thing when you look at Geor Love in This offense they're awfully good these last few weeks about picking up the blitz knowing exactly where to go when they see the team is blitzing and I actually think that he has a harder time when you simulate the blitzes you go up to the line of scrimmage you have all the spaghetti on the plate type of stuff and then you drop back post Snap that's where he really struggles and I hope if we start off the game with that mentality mentality he can throw us an early pick all right Ben how about this how about the Vikings offensive approach is it going to be yeah we got Justin Jefferson of course Jordan Addison is going to play that's according to a source that he will actually play today you got KJ Osborne obviously you're without TJ or is it going to be against the Packers run defense they're 30th in the NFL so do we get Tai Chandler in the ground game going which way do you think we'll probably lean towards well I think we have to get Tai going a little bit more you know the ground game has to be a big factor because you can't it's just not fair to jiren Hall to come into this game on a Sunday night and and expect to throw the ball 40 45 times this game to win that's just not fair to him you have to attack this defensive front this defensive front is built to rush the passer they're not built to stop the run we have to take the pressure off of him attack them where the mo where they're the most vulnerable and that's on the ground all right how about this last one less than a minute here for you Packers dline they do a lot of stunts and loop around they love to set up o lines and get clear shots at the quarterback how do you feel that that's going to go here tonight well as long as we can just stay ahead of the chains I mean that's going to be the biggest thing is look they don't have a lot of depth much like we don't have a lot of depth in the defensive line they're very young on the defensive line and like I was saying they want to rush the passer versus stop the run so as long as we're not in a lot of second and long and third and Longs and we can stay positive ahead the chains I don't think that's going to be a factor now that's all well and good it's I mean it's easy for me to say this but um hopefully during the game we limit the third and Longs limit all their twists and stunts and all that stuff and uh and we can sustain drives and wear those guys out Ben you're the best and happy New Year if I don't get to talk to you from now until then ah you do the same must happy New Year all right thanks Ben Liber their former Minnesota Vikings linebacker of course here on Vikings football Sunday New Year's Eve Edition and coming up next Ben guestling from

Minnesota sports leader is FM 100.3 KFX Bolis the fan welcome back Vikings football Sunday New Year's Eve edition of must I'm here at US Bank Stadium up in the booth and tonight's Health Report is brought to you by twins City's Orthopedics TCO the official Sports Medicine provider of the Minnesota Vikings Christian Watson for the Packers he is out Eric Stokes the cornerback he is out as well ker Alexander won't play tonight cuz he's been suspended for the Minnesota Vikings Byron Murphy that one's a big one he will be out again this game Jordan Addison though he will play today that is tonight's heal report it's brought to you by Twin Cities Orthopedics TCO the official Sports Medicine provider of the Minnesota Vikings trusted care pro approved and Ben guestling from star tribun star tribune.com joining me now the uh Jordan Addison report of him playing tonight that's going to be big for jiren Hall getting a start here with the Vikings yeah it is must I mean especially with with this Packer secondary being as depleted as it is because of injuries and the g Alexander suspension jiren Hall needs a number of different weapons to go to here you know they're going to put attention on Justin Jefferson they're probably going to put a safety over him and double him and and do different things there but without TJ hackinson in there it's important for Jordan Addison to give him that second target give another place for the Packers to have to think about in coverage because if he can find places to throw I think you can have a lot of success in this secondary we've seen it in the past with Joe Barry and those deep shell that they like to play they will give you room to throw underneath hit easy throws and let people have space to run we've seen Justin Jefferson do that here in the past and certainly if they play with those coverages and they have different places to go with the ball I think Jared Hall can have some opportunities against this group well and Ben the good news is for Vikings fans especially how things have been going lately the uh turnovers and everything Packers defense uh for interceptions they've only had six that's 31st in the NFL yeah that's not really something they do I mean it's been interesting with them because for a lot of the years with the Packers defense it's they give up a lot of yards but they tend to bail themselves out by getting a lot of takeaways this group has not been able to do that and I think some of that as you've seen a lot of turnover in that safety position with Darnell Savage being Hur at times and and Jonathan Owens being in there uh you know not Edan Amli they've had in the past so I think the takeaways haven't been there for them and and it's it's a group that can get a lot of pressure their front seven can cause a lot of trouble but if you can protect Jared Hall there are places to take advantage of the secondary I think in a lot of different ways all right Ben thank you so much appreciate it buddy you got it must enjoy the game yep you as well B guestling from Star Tribune startribune.com you can hear him throughout the week on KF as well Vikings football Sunday New Year's

take on our arch rival Green Bay Packers um Josh Oliver tight end is joining us for a minute just before the game and Josh you had I can't imagine the emotions that you're that you've dealt with this week um you know you lose a teammate in TJ Hockinson and then you know that you are the one that needs to step in and fill whatever that position might entail what do you what do you expecting for today and are you excited about the opportunity yeah I mean losing TJ I think the whole tight end room was devastated with that um but knowing TJ and knowing the competitor he is um you know he'd want nothing else but the next man up mentality and for you to go out there and play for him now you haven't you haven't had any receptions against the Packers in your career yet but you've had seven multiple catch games today and little do people know at San Jose State 98 receptions over a th000 yards receiving only the fourth in school history so you got you got that about you you excited to show it off a little bit yeah I feel like I still got a little bit of that to me um I mean my R has been primar primarily blocking but um always excited to show off my catching ability and you've been you've been especially uh important for this team in the Red Zone what is it about the red zone and uh with tight ends what what do you need to be what do you have to do to be good in the Red Zone man uh I feel like tight ends are like extra basketball players out there they can go up and get the ball um your eyes get bigger when you're in the red zone and you're always looking for the opportunity so this the Green Bay defense um you know they theyve a lot of focus on them Joe Barry their coordinator but I think up front they still they still have a a really good front F that they can put out there and you're going to be going against guys like you know Preston Smith ran Gary what have you seen on film with this group um uh defensively yeah I mean they're a physical group um they've got some guys like you said um we've gone against the on so we got a little bit of familiarity with their game and everything but uh we got a a hands full um with this group yeah and then guys like Kingsley enk bar Lucas vaness um pretty deep at that defensive end kind of outside linebacker position right yeah uhuh their defense is uh they got a good defense and they're stacked uh so looking forward to the challenge you looking forward to running the football what do you think of uh with the way that Tai Chandler has been running the football lately oh yeah man you'd love to get tie tie the ball cuz something explosive is about to happen so anytime we're blocking for tie we we're block with the heads down now you're getting a little bit more of the counter power game in there we're going to see you pulling and kicking out maybe sometime soon get you get you pulling with the tackle the old Ty yeah man I love the power game so anything I could do put me in there I'll get to it um Alexander Madison he's on the mend uh we'll see you know how he's involved today how what is he what about him as a runner uh makes him special and in in with in I guess as a teammate in the backfield of Tai Chandler what the what differences do they have yeah I mean they they compliment each other very well Deuce I mean he's he's a hell of a player too um his just his ability to put his head down and get some extra yards and stuff and make those explosive plays too like you saw against Oakland or I mean Los Vegas and uh just those type of plays you see happen with both of them you excited about the being in front of the fans again one last time for this season here at US Bank what's it like playing at home you you know you you you've played with Jacksonville ball more uh what's special

Minneapolis St Paul the sports leader it's US Bank Stadium it is the final home game during the 2023 for the Minnesota Vikings and here's Kevin oconnell head coach of uh said Squad and um of course we know they're all big and in the regular season you only get 17 of them uh those guys over there that's absolutely as you know the team all the fans in the stadium want to see their favorite team beat the most so offensively what would be some keys to uh to getting by Green Bay today yeah I think uh PA we're going to have to be a efficient on early downs and efficient meaning let's get the Run game going a little bit let's see if we can get Tai and Alex you know some some uh you know consistent stack some runs uh stay in the manageable D and so we're not in those third and Longs we're not in those second and Longs those things are going to happen and and when they do uh we've got to find a way to you know try to thrive through those Downs convert and stay on the field I think it's going to be a game about sustaining some uh momentum throughout the game offensively um and seeing if we can get some chunk plays seeing if we can get some explosives and not need 12 14 plays every time we drive but also understanding that their offense on the other sides playing good football um we want to make sure we don't have our defense out there all day uh really play complimentary style and then have our kicking game jump in with some positive plays as well a jiren hall with a second start truly how deep up your up your sleeve can you get uh given the situation yeah I think anytime you're you're playing a young player and whether it's a young player a guy without a lot of experience expence uh you want to try to get him you know comfortable early uh but the other side knows you want to do that too and if you uh you know you also want to have that guy gain some confidence as the game goes on early on by giving him some opportunities uh to make a play and and Trust his arm trust the skill set trust the fundamentals and techniques and when I look at it PA you know jiren is going to be prepared for this game it's going to be a matter of can I you know take all that preparation handle the moment the energy in the stadium and just go out there and do my job and for us right now at the quarterback position uh we're looking for a guy that can throw completions uh run the show and ultimately with jiren's ability I think his athleticism might have an impact on it too being able to extend some plays off schedule uh but when we do those things uh let's make sure we maintain possession of the football and uh live to fight another down and uh you know as we like to say sometimes every possession should end in a kick of some sort U whether it's Ryan Wright putting it for field position Greg taking a shot at three or uh maybe get an extra point after a big time play uh your left guard Dalton Ryner um H what do you like about how he works with the rest of the Minnesota moving company he has been um from the first day we brought him in here I mean it's been a whirlwind for him uh ends up you know playing a really really significant portion of the season for us and playing every snap uh what I love about him is just what he brings from an energy standpoint I do think he's one of the better pass protecting guards really in football when you uh really take a look at what he does and he's imp improved in his fit in our Run game and uh I think he's growing each and every day I think he loves being around his teammates that old line culture that o line room uh is is one of my favorites and uh hoping to keep that group together as long as we can because they're growing every single time they play we've played a lot of guys up front this year uh overcoming some guys you know missing a game or two but what we've done is really tested our depth but grown our chemistry and culture in there to go play well together regardless of who's behind them at quarterback regardless of who's at the running back position so looking for them to have a big day the line of scrimmage is going to be a huge part of this game always is when you play a talented front like Green Bay um lastly you guys flumix love when you beat him at Lambo field what what are some defensive keys for this one tonight given uh the way I would assume he's matured since the last time you saw him yeah he's definitely uh I see a guy that's incredibly comfortable back there you know going through progression standing in there he's made some big time throws you know in the face of pressure uh and then ultimately you know he's still showing like he always has that ability to extend a play and find one of those good young receivers uncovered in the end zone or critical third down conversion to keep drives alive he'll use his legs they'll use him in the Run game when they need to uh he's become uh really probably everything that they hoped he would this year uh with all this valuable experience he's gaining uh I know when you flip on the tape you see a guy playing the position the right way and and continuing to get better and better so we're going to have to play really well defensively we're going to have to tie it all together between rush and coverage and pressure looks and uh Max coverage looks and try to keep him on his heels try to confuse him when we can and uh see if we can get some oppos at the football and uh if we can do that make them uncomfortable especially you know offensively I think that bodess well for us as a defense uh an early happy New Year to you and your family and have fun tonight okay thanks Pa Kevin oconnell head coach of the Minnesota Vikings and I'm Paul Allen it's the Border battle it's the Vikings and the Packers next on the KFA and

today's game the voice of the Vikings Paul Allen all righty let's close 2023 with Minnesota Vikings football against the Green Bay Packers it is border battle 127 and Green Bay leads the alltime series 65583 Minnesota won at Lambo week eight but the victory cigars were Bittersweet given that was the game cousins popped as Achilles your analysts in this game Pete bich and Ben lever faced the Green Bay Packers 18 times during their careers and finished a combined seven and 11 what well I didn't say who had more wins you were Ben that's got to be F uh the uh Green Bay Packers won the toss and elected to take the ball so Jordan love and that offense elected to take on Brian Flores defense right out of the gates a defense that will be down Byron Murphy Jr starting Corner misses his second consecutive game and also DJ wanham he's out for the season Greg Joseph wearing the purple jersey set to kick it away to keesan Nixon one of the best returners in the NFL and in fact keesan in his fifth year from South Carolina he averages 262 yard per kick return that's best in the NFL he has one kick return touchdown it took place against the Minnesota Vikings at the end of the 2021 season and he got in from 105 Paul sorry to interrupt you but we just had a shirtless Kirk Cousins blow the gallah horn oh wow shirtless he's look at him look screen he's got the KIRO chains on let's go that's fantastic you talk about a guy coming out of his shell holy cow and boom the Minnesota Vikings look to in 2023 with a smile and here comes kesan Nixon out of the end zone to the 5 to the 10 to the 15 to the 20 nii Thompson with other Vikings bring him down after a return of 25 yards and Jordan love in his fourth year from Utah State making his 17th start he has 27 touch downs and 11 picks since we last saw Jordan week eight 16 touchdowns three interceptions in that game against the Vikings a 2410 win for Minnesota love went 229 a touchdown and an interception he a Vikings in the last two losses has allowed 57 points and 11 plays of 15 yards or more empty backfield for Jordan love wearing the white jersey in the gold helmet with the green g he goes out of the shotgun back to pass he's going to go deep Center the field to start things incomplete he overthrew Jaden Reed Harry The Hitman on the coverage so it'll be second and 10 and Jaden Reed is uh one of several outstanding rookies for the Green Bay Packers this is a rookie from Michigan State with eight touchdowns and two uh via land Tucker CFT is a rookie from South Dakota State he has a couple of touchdowns he's a third round pick Aaron Jones is The Tail Back seventh Year from UTEP he had a massive game last week against Carolina H Josiah deu in motion hand off Aaron Jones right side he crosses the line of scrimmage hit at the 21 taken down after a gain of three Peter and it's third and seven Yeah you mentioned Aaron Jones against Carolina he had 21 attempts for 127 yards that's 6 yds per attempt he had a 40-yd run mixed in there the rest of the running backs 10 attempts 16 yds so Aaron Jones He although he's good out of the back field as a receiver lately he's been the B the Crux of their running game the Minnesota Vikings are hoping to sweep the Green Bay Packers for the first time since 2017 on third down love back to pass looks left throws left Makai Blackman slipped and it's caught at the 39y line by Romeo dos in his second year from Nevada and in fact they're going to say he dropped it holy cow he dropped it so Green Bay goes three and out and Daniel wheelen the first year punter from UC Davis is in wow yeah and it was interesting when mikai Blackman came off the field it was Brian Flores that really got all over him really he just kind of gave him a slap to the head and just said hey man you're better than that so you can't have those kinds of mistakes with these corners and with our situation without Byron Murphy we're going to depend on guys like Blackman to make plays wheelen taking the Matt orzac snap and punting to Brandon pal scoreless Porter battle 127 pal identifies it and brings it in at his knees at the 23 we head down to Ben lever what's up Ben well as Pete talked about the start of the broadcast dude Kirt cousins he has this place amped up takes his shirt off while he's getting ready to do the Galah horn with a giant gold J on and the deal meter just went through through the roof I will say this about about that first defensive series two plays in We Did Not disguise we did not show any semblance of Blitz we've just played straight coverage that third and eight right there we get a Jay Ward out of the nickel blitzing off the corner so only one Blitz out of those three downs and now the debut at home for jiren Hall who goes play action rolls out to the right run on his mind crosses the 20 to the 25 saunter out of bounds near side at the 28 yd line that's a 5yd run second and five for the rookie from BYU a fifth round draft pick this is his second start first at US Bank Stadium everybody probably knows the story but in case you missed it we're at Lambo field cousins pops as Achilles in comes jiren Hall immediately there's a Preston Smith strip sack next week he starts at Atlanta gets knocked out by the goal line by Jeff okuda and Kade Nellis in comes Josh dos out goes dos in comes Mullins and here's jiren Hall second and five from his own 28 and he hands it to Tai Chandler the starting tail back to the right side across the 30yd line he's taken down after a threey run by Isaiah McDuffy and now it's third and two yeah that's exactly if how you want it and you would expect it to get this this running game going whatever underneath there he can maybe pull this thing down and run so nice job on first and second down JJ in motion to the left joining two receivers TJ hackinson out for the season Hall out of the shotgun faces a blitz he's going to be encountered from behind throws right into in complete it was Johnny Mt being covered by Isaiah McDuffy and now the Minnesota Vikings go three and out that was manto man and that's something that jiren Hall has got to see and he has to know what his Outlet is and where he can go with that when he does get that manto man up front so decent protection he had some time but then it broke down late you had you had CJ ham in there in the back end trying to help out but trading punts early so three and out both ways Jaden Reed the Michigan State rookie is returning this punt keesan Nixon also returns them and Orion Wright second year from Tain takes a perfect snap and bangs a high spiral sending Reed back to the seven yd line where he lets it roll into the end zone and that is the seventh Touchback this season for Ryan Wright Green Bay

arm to tight end Tucker craft he caught it at the 24 yd line it'll be a four yd gain and second and six for Green Bay scoreless 1222 and counting to go Paul getting Jordan Hicks back has been huge and that was where Jordan love wanted to go he had Malik Heath on a dig into the middle of the field and Jordan Hicks he knows where exactly he wants to go got in that throwing Lane and forced love to throw the outlet so a huge huge play by Jordan Hicks to take away what Jordan love wanted second and five from his Zone 25 in the first quarter and love hands it to Aaron Jones who Sprints to the right side into the awaiting arms of Patrick Jones who brings down the fellow Jones after a gain of two and it'll be third and three from the Green Bay 27 Green Bay 0 of one on third down that Green Bay hurrying up cuz we're substituting on defense so they're going to try to get up to the line and snap this thing quickly although now they're resetting everything so this is all about the communication time for the fans to get loud love shotgun right in front of him to the right Aaron Jones three receivers left and one right 11 and 1/2 minutes to go in the first quarter each team seven and eight if the Minnesota Vikings win their final two games they are in the playoffs play clock down to three Love Takes the Meers snap Mattel is splitz this pass left caught for a first down at the 31 yd line by Romeo dos it was a gain of about three maybe four but just enough to get the first first down of the game well they know that Blackman is is is a little nicked up he had a shoulder injury didn't finish the game a week ago and and right now both of Jordan Love's important throws have have gone his way one was a drop and this one was a first down so we'll keep an eye on that for the game but they may be just trying to find K Blackman they had three drops last game against Carolina Jaden Reed in motion to the left love out of the shotgun Vikings Blitz left throws right caught by that nice tight end Tucker graft and a stiff arm of a Caleb Evans at the 40 was beautiful and he gets up to the 44 yd line for a gain of 14 yards and another Green Bay first down yeah a little bit of a a miscommunication on the outside he just had a slant and a flat behind it and Caleb Evans in and just chasing down the the receiver too far right he's just trying to squeeze down and contact the wide receiver which is a good thing but he has to keep his eyes up and if anything goes to a flat that's on him so Caleb Evans gives him the first down draft Bo Melton and Jaden Reed are right Romeo dos left Christian Watson inactive Reed in motion to the left Jordan out of the shotgun goes the way of the Michigan State rookie and he caught it at the 48 yd line and he is thrust out of bounds by a Caleb Evans that is a 6yd gain for Jaden Reed well for Jordan love big difference Paul between the last game and this game is just the speed with which he's getting rid of the football I mean he had he's dropped into the pocket one time and that was on a deep shot that Harrison Smith had covered very well so everything else has just been quick throw after quick throw wild out of the shotgun on second and four from the 50 heading to the west side of US Bank Stadium Jaden Reed motions behind love out of the shotgun and the handoff goes to Aaron Jones left side stood up at the line of scrimmage and he'll be stopped right there and might be a gain of one Patrick Jones Harrison Phillips a couple in there now third and four from the 50 yd line for Green Bay one of two on third down and nice job by kyus Tonga I mean TJ Smith is up you're going to see a lot of Andre Carter kyus Tonga not a lot of depth left at the defensive line position love after starting o of two four for four now it's third down make it five for five shot over the middle caught at the 33 yard line between the hash marks and that is a connection of 13 yds and the Green Bay Packers third first down on this possession the reception was made by Bo Melton Bo Melton is in his first full year from ruter never has scored a touchdown and it's first first and 10 Green Bay from the Vikings 37 with 8 and 1/2 minutes to go in the first quarter the offensive line for Green Bay left to right Rasheed Walker Elton Jenkins Josh Meers John runion is the Right Guard Zack Tom second year from Wake Forest the right tackle they do rotate right guards with Shawn Ryan love under Center For the First Time toss left Aaron Jones with room 3530 gets to the outside 2520 and matelis walks him out of bounds after another Green Bay Packers first down at the 18 yd line 19 yd burst for Aaron Jones that's some 100% on Patrick Jones now he could say he got held by tuck Tucker Craft on the outside but that you know doesn't matter you can't count on that happening he has to be less frontal and half contained I mean you just really just gave him a big run because you lost contain middle of the first quarter scoreless first down Green Bay from the Vikings 18 two receivers left and right they have two tight ends they're both on the left side Jaden Reed in motion to the left now back to the right out of the shotgun hand off AJ Dylan and Aaron Jones backup heads up the middle for a gain of three yds to the 15 it's second and seven AJ Dylan fourth year Boston College yeah nice job by Harrison Phillips and kyus Tonga again and Ivan Pace I tell you what Ivan Pace has just has such a knack for playing the Run game the ability to know when that running back wants to cut back and what Lane the running back is going to go into so he's been as an undrafted rookie free agent Paul I know we said it a million times but he's been such a huge add to this defense 10th play of a possession that's gone 65 yards and chewed up 5 minutes and change jeromeo dos in motion to the right second and eight love throws left and it's spotted away at the line of scrimmage pass defense by one of the beefeaters and now it's third and eight from the Vikings 16 that was either Harrison Phillips I think Harrison Phillips is the one that batted it down it was either he or Pat Jones so nice job they had love had a couple of options underneath and that's what I you see go back a few plays of a big dig The Big Dig the big throw across the middle to full Melton that was just Cameron bham getting getting there a little bit late so our defensive backs need to settle in Green Bay two of three on third down this is third and eight from the Vikings 16 first quarter Minnesota Rush is five love out of the shotgun sees nothing spins out to the left throws to the end zone incomplete and he had Malik Heath wide open the Vikings just got lucky well Paul it was a it was manto man and they had everything covered so they made love scramble and what happened was that Caleb Evans just took his eyes off of his coverage and you just can't do that he slipped actually and you you just can't do that once that clock goes off in your head and you know it's been a few seconds it it was man man but you have to be ready for that receiver to just plant and turn the other way and dash for the corner back corner of the end zone so Caleb Evans wow been a big mistake Anders Carlson sixr rookie from Auburn with a 34 yd try by left hash snap spot Anders Carlson kicks Green Bay to the lead 643 to go in the first quarter 30 Green Bay

together we can love Beyond this is live coverage of Vikings and Packers on iHeart radio and FM 100.3 KF the [Music] fan welcome back to US Bank Stadium it is Green Bay 3 Vikings Z after a 12 Place 64 yd drive for the Packers now here's the deal going into this game we were talking about Jordan love and his ability to pick up the blitzes and his success against the Blitz and that's the one thing our defense does really well so so far in this game we've shown a little bit of pressure but a lot of it's been simulated pressure only four blitzes in the 15 offensive plays so right now Brian Flores opting to play much more coverage than bring the blitz boom and Libra with the US Bank sideline update Anders Carlson's kick over the head of K Wan wo hey by the way the unreal Vikings Encore release just dropped and might be the best one yet so grab them before they're gone at US Bank Stadium or online un nrl.com thank you unreal so the Green Bay Packers lead 30-0 as nacho just told you and jiren Hall the BYU rookie making his home starting debut one of five out of the gate uh one of five rushing 0 of one passing he goes under Center Jordan Addison to the right hand off Tai Chandler he gets through the line of scrimmage to the left side across the 25 yd line ran Gary and uh Kenny Clark two of the better defensive players for an injury depleted Green Bay Packers defense Corral him after a gain of three yeah and and you know with the struggles that Green Bay's had on defense most of it's coming from their the back end of that the the secondary uh this front seven is still pretty darn good Preston Smith Slayton Kenny Clark ran Gary Devon Wyatt you know Quay Walker is a very very good running linebacker against the runs so here we go the biu rookie goes with an empty back field on second and seven takes the snap back to pass stays in the pocket throws over the middle ball goes bounding off the hands of Johnny Mt and it's an interception for the Green Bay Packers Cory Balentine fifth year from Washburn with the first interception of his career in his 53rd game and Green Bay has turned over the turnover prone Minnesota Vikings yeah wa you you get a Crossing route underneath and and for jiren Hall he had plenty of time but the ball was thrown behind he had plenty of options but the ball was thrown behind he was expecting Mt to settle and Mt kept running so Mt thought it was manto man uh jiren Hall saw correctly his Zone and then the ball ended up going behind batted in the air and then intercepted so our defense needs to step up and Paul like it's if there's one thing that needs to change about this offense it's been the turnover is a plus minus we just can't get out of Our Own Way Vikings now minus 10 with 31 givs Jordan love first and 10 from the Vikings 33 and a 3- lead he's out of the shotgun Aaron Jones flares out to the right Jaden Reed to the left the Michigan State rookie gets the pass left and it's caught at the line of scrimmage but a couple of Vikings led by Mai Blackman stop him and uh that's actually going to be a loss of one making it second and 11 yeah and there's going to be a lot of huddling on the sideline I'm sure with jiren just to go through what they were trying to do and where that ball gets delivered and and you know we we talked about it during the week that losing TJ hackinson against this team with the with the opportunity in the middle of the field it's a big deal and uh we saw that already love out of the shotgun on second and 10 from the Vikings 33 play action to Aaron Jones now Jordan throws deep center of the field Jaden Reed wide open TouchDown touchdown Green Bay Packers a 33 yd touchdown love to read for Jaden Reed his ninth touchdown this season for the strong armed Jordan love his 28 and Green Bay has taken a 90 lead well we tried to show three deep and then went to a cover two type of a look and so you had Maki Blackman at corner going to the Deep half Paul and he didn't squeeze that at all so not sure who's supposed to be responsible for what but when you have one guy up the field and you're playing too deep Mai Blackman probably needs to be that guy to get over there and cover him unders Carlson's extra point is good and with the 510 to go in the first quarter Green Bay has a 10-0 lead this is Minnesota Vikings football if you bleed purple you're not alone at North Memorial

mean special teams didn't even get out you barely got it out to the 20 so we need a big play here on offense or something to spark this team and get this crowd back into it jiren Hall wears number 16 he's 0 of two throwing it's going to fake a pass out to the left and hand off to Tai Chandler who zigs to the left and now he zags to the right across the 25 taken down at the 27 yd line 8 yd run by Ty Chandler second and two and that's a that's a bit of a play that it's a play we've seen a number of times now where they're actually faking the whip screen to the outside and then handing it off so it's probably a check with me depending on how many guys are in the box but again in addition to the counter I think with Tai Chandler you're also seeing some more slowly developing plays you're kind of letting the offensive lineman work to their spots and then let Chandler take it from there and jiren Hall whose only other start was that Atlanta went five for six for 78 yards and 13 minutes he's going to hand it off to Tai Chandler out of the shotgun up the middle across the 35 first down for the Minnesota Vikings their first this game and eight yard run by TC yeah nice job just right off tackle and by alignment you're getting the defensive back you have Darnell Savage who came out who blitzed off the edge just too far outside to get back into it nice block on Quay Walker by Dalton Ryner so good job up front putting a hat on a hat the Minnesota Vikings are trailing 10-0 Tai Chandler four runs 25 yds and he's in the eye behind CJ ham jiren Hall is under Center seven on the play clock first down for the Vikings movement up front Kenny Clark jumped Ed Ingram jumped Dalton Ryner jumped yeah I think that this one's going to be on Kenny referee is Clay Martin I don't know they're talking about it Kenny Clark kind of gave it the encroachment yes Defense number 52 penalty first and five rwn Gary Peter with those nine sacks well ran Gary wasn't the only one they got that one wrong cuz when ran Gary crossed the line of scrimmage Kenny Clark had already pushed our quarterback so that was all 97 they're going have to go back and fix that one yeah Kenny has a couple of years on him you know he does he does he's just guessing I mean that's again this defense Paul they're they don't have a ton of momentum and we just got to get them back on their heels first and five from the 42 of the Vikings trailing 10-0 is Minnesota handoff Chandler right side he spins up a corner at the 42 and then Isaiah McDuffy in the former Georgia product Devonte Wyatt bring him down it'll be a gain of two yards that'll make it second and right around three and when's the last time we've run the ball like four or five times in a row right we haven't we haven't seen that in a while at Cincinnati they started off with those nice runs to open up that pass game for Mullins they did and hopefully it's going to be the same thing for you know for jiren Hall but um Second and about four going shotgun second and four from the 43 indeed out of the gun two receivers left one is JJ he has no catches here's a blitz and Hall so he's going to throw to Jefferson single coverage incomplete at the 30 and no Flags the coverage was provided by Cory Balentine again fifth year from wasburn doesn't play that much but he had an interception earlier on a deflected pass the first of his career and now it's third and four for the Minnesota Vikings o of one on third down when jiren Hall gets up to the line of scrimmage and sees Cory Ballentine one-on-one with Justin Jefferson on the outside you you you have to take it you have to do that and I think if he would have put a little bit more on that football it would have been a catch Daren Hall goes out of the shotgun Alexander Madison to his right Jordan Addison in motion Hall back to pass he pumps now he floats out to the right he's looking down the field throws it and he throws it away Alexander Madison along with KJ Osborne and Jordan Addison all in the V inity and uh now you have a couple on the field uh look at uh look at your guy down there getting into JJ caring and Valentine the seventh round Kentucky rookie who the hell do you think you are are you kidding me yeah they're feeling they're feeling a little confident because of how jiren Hall's playing at the moment so they're trying to I gu trying to get in there get under his skin but I think JJ knows better than that yeah JJ just walked away when this Kentucky rookie was just like pointing at him Ryan rides punt the last was a Touchback back this one is to his left as they continue to work on the directional punting for Ryan Wright and that one goes out of bounds in the neighborhood of the 30 yd line 228 to go in the first quarter Green Bay has the ball and

FM 100.3 KF the fan and early happy new here to you from Minneapolis Let's uh pause for station identification this is Minnesota Vikings football hey it's Chris AI you're listening to Minnesota Vikings football on your home of all things purple FM 100.3 kfxn Minneapolis St Paul The Fan Ben Liber Pete bersuch Paul Allen and Jordan love under center with a 10 Z lead first and 10 from his own 30 love is 7 of 11 73 yds in a TD to Jaden Reed receivers left and right tight ends left and right they're Balan now Tucker craft in motion to the right hand off AJ Dylan with groom up the middle and the big old AJ Dylan goes 30 35 chopped down at the 36 but he falls ahead for a gain of 11 and a first down for the Green Bay Packers yeah just a nice counter up front and they were able to wash our entire defensive line out of there mainly Harrison Phillips and then kick out on our outside linebackers so not well defended up front and that's really the first big run the Packers have had tonight first down for Green Bay from its own 37 yd line Jaden Reed in motion to the left love is under Center hand off AJ Dylan he cuts back up the middle and is taken down by Ivan Pace Jr and for AJ Dylan a gain of one maybe two Ivan Pace Junior two and a half sacks and an interception this year makes it second and eight yeah like I said Ian Bas just doing a doing a fabulous job as far as being able to play that run and having a feel for that so I think with he and Jordan Hicks in there again together Jordan Hicks being the Green Dot guy getting everybody lined up he he is so valuable to this front especially when you're missing guys like DJ W the outside linebackers right now are Patrick Jones and Andre Carter II and on second down love goes back to pass extremely deep draw throws right man uncovered it's B Mountain ONN matelis at the Vikings 37 and Bo Melton in front of a fired up Green Bay Packers bench has a 28 yd reception by far the longest of his career and another explosive play for the Green Bay Packers and that's just another coverage bust and it was either it was either Josh matelis or Caleb Evans one of the two that needs to get that it's just two guys coming up the middle of the field and they just both turned them loose so a lot of me mean a ton of mental mistakes on our on our our secondary so far today love 8 of 12 101 yards and a touchdown AJ Dylan's the tail back on first down he gets the call and he heads right up the middle and runs through Josh Mattel's flag on the play he will grind his way to the 26 yd line unofficially for a run of seven yds this penalty will be offside on the Minnesota Vikings and here's clay Martin upside Defense number 90 lining up in the neutral zone 5y penalty it's first down and five Jonathan Bullard yeah unless they unless they decide to decline it I don't know we'll see good point but uh again Paul it just mistakes in the secondary um and that's not something that we've seen a lot of and we you know had going into this game we had only really we had only given up one play of of over 40 yards and so these explosive plays are just not something that we do well in the Vikings last two losses p not only have they allowed 57 points but they've allowed 11 plays of 15 yards or more Green Bay already has three wow in the first quarter and that's the end of the first quarter Jordan love to Jaden Reed and

FM 100.3 kfn The Fan welcome back to us SP stadium is still Green Bay 10 Vikings zero as the Packers are driving now after a 28 yard catch by Bill Melton and guys I hate to call somebody out here but Caleb Evans who did not have a great game yesterday or last week is starting off pretty rough this week as well had a Miss tackle then another busting coverage then busted on that last coverage on that 28- y as well Ben lever from the Vikings sideline Aaron Jones up the middle on First and five for a gain of two that'll make it second and three from the Vikings 26 yd line yeah you know and the problems have been just some of its awareness with Makai Blackman and in certain situations but for Caleb Evans there have been a couple plays jamming the receiver not seeing the tight end of the flat and then just making mistakes down the field on routes that they need to know how to they should be able to cover so just simple mistakes love under Center Ben Simson motion to the right hand off Aaron Jones to the right side across the 25 hit at the 24 and he falls ahead for two so he'll be just short of the first down and Shawn Ryan Pete is in the game as the Right Guard the Packers rotate guards John R and Shan Ryan they uh they will rotate all game here's Jordan love on a quarterback sneak on Third and short right up the middle I don't think he got it I'm not sure about this one Peter if they put it where they where they're currently marking it then he's short so great job by the defense to to hold up it looked like it looked from up here that he was able to take that snap and dive forward but they're marking it short they're saying it's fourth down so four down looks like Green Bay is going to keep their offense on the field and either try to get us to jump off sides or do it again let's see Green Bay 12 of 23 on fourth down Ryan Flores defense has given up first downs or touchdowns 16 of 22 Fourth down attempts it is fourth and one from the Vikings 23 second quarter Green

Anthony Edwards delivers again hey Pete yes Paul Green Bay's defense the last three has allowed seven passing touchdowns and zero picks to Tommy DeVito Baker Mayfield and Bryce young jiren Hall has zero completions with 1319 to go in the first half but at least we have the ball first and 10 from our own 24 hand off Alexander Madison right side now he'll bump it back to the left to the 26 ryes to the 28 it'll be a run of four for Alexander Madison second in 61 zip Green Bay yeah and a great job by Christian darel by the way but you know getting that win by hooker crook you know you it's as good as having a turnover so our offense gets the football and we can have the opportunity to make this a one- score football game no huddle opportunity for jiren Hall making his first National Football League start at home second of his career he goes out of the shotgun couple of receivers left one right Madison to the left of jiren Hall who takes the Bradberry snap delayed Blitz by Green Bay jiren's great drop throws right caught there it is you want a completion man go to JJ every time against this weak secondary 15yd connection first down Vikings now let's hope that this gives jiren some a little bit of a rhythm and some confidence the ball was underthrown so JJ does a nice job of coming back to it and making the catch sliding to his knees so Paul we know we know that there are opportunities out there and it's just going to be a matter of whether or not jiren Hall can understand understand what he's seeing on the field and then get himself into some kind of a rhythm Jordan Addison SS a catch to the left JJ in motion joins him and Addison is now slot left jiren Halls under Center on First and 10 Madison the tail back first and 10 from the 41 jiren he spins now he goes back to pass row over the middle caught Addison in Packers territory at the 45 he'll turn it up inside the numbers to the 40 and he's taken down at the 37 yd line a 20yd connection a couple of rookies got together and burn Green Bay first down what a great throw and catch let me say there's something about Jordan Addison that I just love and and a bit of it is just he's a small guy but he's just got an attitude man and I and I love that about him as a Green Bay players lay on him and he just stands up and he's like I'm here all night man so what a great catch by Addison first down hall out of the shotgun hands to Madison right up the middle following the blocking of Bradberry and Ed Ingram he'll get to the 3635 and will grind his way for four with 11 minutes to go and counting in the first half second and six from the Green Bay 35 Green Bay leads 10-0 the only touchdown Jordan loved to Jaden Reed and the one thing you want to make sure here Paul is you get nothing in the way of loss yardage plays whether it's a sack or a hold or a penalty cuz you finally got yourself in a field goal range you want to capitalizing all under Center second and six from the Green Bay 35 JJ in motion behind him to the left jiren play action straight drop Lucas vaness on the rush jiren encountered and jiren sacked jiren Hall sacked by not only Lucas NES but kobby wooden their fourth round rookie from Auburn that's his first National Football League sack there's a packer down but enough of this first whatever for Green Bay's defense like Cory Balentine this is his 53rd game he has his first inter reception and for wooden that's his first sack Packer down Isaiah McDuffy third and 16 for the Vikings when we return 10 and A2 minutes to go in the first half 10-0 Green Bay from US Bank

learn more at lifetime. life/ kids yeah you got some ground to make up so you can try to get that getting the first down obviously would be a great thing but getting around that 35 yard line Paul so you can at least end this drive with a field goal attempt yeah that and we just talked about it you know that when you finally get into field goal range what you don't want or loss yardage plays be it penalties or sacks and you know in a play that was a little bit messed up from the beginning yeah you know maybe baging time out there and get that thing right before you go ahead and try to run it jiren Hall third and 16 he's two of six for 33 yds he goes back to pass Green Bay rushes three it's a pass left caught Johnny Mt at the 40 shakes a tackle at the 38 and Dives ahead to the 36 so it'll be a gain of nine for Johnny munt and trailing 10-0 Greg Joseph is in for his longest field goal in quite some time in fact uh field goals of 50 yards and Beyond this will be 54 Reg three of six his last 50 plus try was November 12th versus New Orleans from 54 he missed it last time he made one from 50 or Beyond October 23rd 54 against the ners Andrew deala snaps Ryan Wright holds snap spot Joseph ton of leg holy cow and it is good and the Minnesota Vikings have scored in Border battle 127 that field goal means another donation to field goal for charity courtesy of innovative and posted Brands learn more at bethematch.org svings and Greg Joseph kicks the Vikings onto the board with a 54 yd make it is 103 Green Bay yeah nice response by our offense and Ben lever I I don't know if you saw it but they had KJ Osborne open on a deep seven route and it would have been if jiren would have been able to set his feet and get rid of it I think that could have been that could have been a touchdown instead of a field goal about how nope go ahead Ben oh hey guys didn't know I was open uh look I know that uh we didn't get the ball in the end zone but I I have to admit that jiren on that drive in particular still looks very cool very confident seems like he's in command when he got his first completion there to JJ for that 13 y he saw something pre- snap steps back gives an audible gets everybody in the right situation and delivers the ball to JJ then he comes right back with h Jordan Addison right over the middle and I got to say guys he's I know that uh it wasn't all what what we wanted to get in the ball in the end zone but he's looked pretty good at least on that drive to settle in in take Comm in boom Greg Joseph's kick far over the head of Kean Nixon quite lethal on kick returns so 925 to go in the first half Green Bay leads 103 Minnesota gets the ball to begin the second second half Green Bay won the toss opted to take the ball and went three and out Jordan love is 8 of 13 for 101 yards and a touchdown to Jaden Reed their leading receiver is Bo Malon couple of catches 40 yards Reed has that touchdown Aaron Jones 6 runs 29 yards AJ Dylan three runs 15 yards first down for the Green Bay Packers from their own 25 the outside rushers for the Vikings Den Neil Hunter and Patrick Jones Jordan love goes under Center Malik Heath in short motion to the left tail back Aaron Jones and he gets the call gets through the line of scrimmage left side Jordan Hicks along with other Vikings stop him and there is a flag on the play after the three- yard game well this looks like it's going to go against us as the back judge is pointing our during a run holding Defense number 97 five yds will be added to the end of the play automatic first down that's Harrison Phillips in the inside and you you know you don't you don't see that play called or that penalty called too often and looks like a double team Harrison Phillips just kind of and it's really kind of away from the play so interesting call from the from the back judge nobody in the back field with Jordan love it's empty backfield four receiving options right and one to the left now Aaron Jones motions to The Back Field to the left of J do Jordan love sacked four times by the Vikings at Lambo field hand off Aaron Jones on first down and he'll run right up the middle across the 35 and counter at the 37 and stopped at the 38 for a run of five maybe six at second down yeah and and Jordan love came out firing Paul but I don't you know as of late his rhythm hasn't really been there as Anthony Bar checks in he was upgraded during the week and you know the you're starting to see some arm tackles out there with this defensive front that's that's been battered all year round and time of possession now starts to become a big thing but our our guys up front need to keep those legs moving Anthony Bar standing up as an outside linebacker to the right of Jordan love who's under Center on second down takes the snap goes play action on a very deep drop he'll throw left caught Jaden Reed on a Caleb Evans at the 45 yd line make it the 46 it's a first down for Green Bay it's a connection of 16 yards and with all due respect they are working at Caleb Evans yeah they are and and Caleb just getting his feet getting his feet all tied up and it you know you watch this play and he has safety helped to the post so there's no reason for him to want to squeeze that thing from the outside in and he just overplayed it so some bad footwork and a first down for Green Bay the Vikings down Byron Murphy Jr their best corner for a second consecutive game first down love from under Center back to pass he'll throw left there's Tucker craft wide open at the Vikings 40 lowers the shoulder at the 37 plows everything purple and he'll get ahead for a gain of 12 and another Green Bay Packers first down and and I think this is where love was effective earlier was just getting to the top of his drop and getting rid of the football immediately just looking for whomever's open got the ball to craft before Caleb Evans was able to break on it Paul I think that's like the big thing it seems like our defensive backfield they're not breaking on the football they're reacting too late so they're giving these receivers too much time love 10 of 15 129 and one he started the game 0 of two out of the shotgun first and 10 he'll throw it out to the right side another catch for Tucker Krab this one on Josh matelis at the 30 so it'll be a quick hitting gain of four yds make it five to the 29 second and five for Green Bay with a 103 lead and that Paul that's kind of exactly what I'm talking about it's it's just a simple arrow route or an out route by the tight end and you know for for Josh matelis to get out there make that tackle but then yet still give up four yards yeah you know our guys are just not breaking on the football and halting progress when they make love under Center second and five from the Vikings 29 takes the snap gives it to Aaron Jones he runs up the middle and takes a big hit at the point of attack from Jonathan Bullard but he will fall ahead to the 24 for a gain of four and that'll make it just shy of the first down it's third and very short yeah I've been impressed with the way Aaron Jones has been running the football he hasn't you know really AJ Dylan is known as their physical Runner but as of late Aaron Jones more and more has has given him that power and you don't see the first guy bringing him down in that case it was it was Ian Pace that hit him in the hole and then allowed allow Jones to spin out and get the you know get almost get their first down Green Bay two5 on third down this is the seventh play of a 51 yd possession third and one from the Vikings 24 hand off Aaron Jones Sprints to the first down left side across the 20 lowers the helmet on the Hitman and make that b him and is taken down after a run of eight yds and a fired up Aaron Jones signals first down and the Packers have it at the Vikings 16 well we guessed up front right you had Harrison Phillips looped the opposite way so he was trying to get the old back door on on the guard in front of him looped the wrong way and allowed Elton Jenkins to be really free up to the linebacker and that allowed the running back to get up to the safety so we're taking the easy way out a little bit up front dos left Melton right love under Center two tight ends they're both to the right of right tackle Zack Tom on first down down and it's a toss to Aaron Jones and he runs through it a a denal hunter arm tackle flag on the play gets to the 10 inside the 10 Close to the first down it's a run of right around 10 but the flag came in from the vicinity of offensive holding let's see what's going on here glay Martin legal use of hands to the face Defense number 90 half the distance to the goal from the end of the play first down that's a that's the second penalty on Jonathan buler by the way well and how about this though you had a hands to the face you had holding on the defense as well so it it's not as if it's not as if it's been a one-time thing you know and wow you finally get some points on the board and you're hoping to get a three and out but the last three drives by Green Bay Paul yeah have been substantial I mean well you had one I think in between but they put together some long drives today and time of possessions really starting to get lopsided first and goal Green Bay from the three with a 103 lead deep in the first half that love under Center goes to AJ Dylan he runs away from Sheldon day to the left side then denal Hunter one of two Vikings to bring him down after a gain of one the other was Jordan Hicks so it'll be second and goal from the two now great job by Sheldon day to get penetration he almost got a hand on Dylan but made Dylan have to give some ground to get outside and that allowed Josh Mattel to get in there and make the tackle so up front Paul they're moving those guys around they're trying to stun them they're trying to get to different spots and it was a great job by day against joshh Meers to get him push him all the way into the back field couple of tight ends left now Tucker craft in motion to the right Jordan loves second and goal out of the shotgun takes a quick snap no he keeps it heads to the left side he lunges for the end zone and he missed it by a yard Jordan love with a read option he kept it sprinted left side so it's third and goal from the one with 3 and 1/2 minutes to go in the first half yeah they're saying that they're saying that he was down but he wants a he's saying he was in so he wants to get a replay of it we'll see if M lefor challenges yeah he should because really nothing touched the ground before that ball breaks the plane yeah Flor is challenging yeah he should CU this will probably go down for as a touchdown as he went over the top of Cameron bham and never the first thing he hit the ground was the ball and it was on the positive side of the after crew discussion ruling on the field is a touchdown Jordan love with a rushing touchdown so someone needs to explain to me how can you have a crew discussion no one signaled it a touchdown how do how do they sit there and have a discussion and say he was in well these screens in here Peter are pretty big I know but you can't do that I know because that saves the challenge by Green Bay Green Bay you know what I'm saying you have to make the team challenge that yep so I don't know man I know there's a lot

3531 now Philly is sitting in the fifth spot in the NFC Playoff pitcher back to PA thanks must couple of TDS by Green Bay both generated by Jordan love have given the Packers a 173 lead most recently the Packers go 10 plays 75 yds 526 off the clock Jordan love with a rushing touchdown Here Comes K wanwu to The Far Side three yds deep out in from the end zone to the 10 to the 15 and he turns it up where again former Viking linebacker Eric Wilson the undrafted Eric Wilson from C cinnati he spent a few years with the Minnesota Vikings after coming into the NFL 7 years ago in 2017 Green Bay has the ball now with some chicanery taking place on the field between Quay Walker and Jay Ward and with 356 to go in the first half Minnesota gets the ball to begin the second half 173 Green Bay jiren Hall has one interception it was off the hands of Johnny Mt 185% of the Viking of Vikings drives this season have ended in turnovers that's by far worst in the NFL Brandon poin motion to the left back to the right out of the shotgun play action Jordan love boots out right he'll throw it to Josh Oliver who bobbles it at the 25 then he buries a Green Bay Packer who tried to tackle him I believe that was Eric Wilson or Jonathan Owens 16 yards and a first down I think we all forget Josh Oliver is senior year at San Jose state, yard yards a bunch of touchdowns I mean he was a he was a good receiving tight end in college now with TJ hackinson out he might be getting some more opportunities first and 10 for Minnesota hand off Tai Chandler up the middle right into the awaiting arms of the Packer of the moment Eric Wilson gain of one flag on the play we're going to get a makeup call here maybe holding holding on the defense we'll take it so it'll be first and five after this after this call during the Run holding defense number 97 5yd penalty automatic first down oh Kenny Clark there Peter well I guess if you're 97 you can't hold anybody they just love calling on they love calling it you know it's interesting though the points of emphasis and the different things and how that you know hands to the face by D lineman and now two holding calls on D lineman not something that you that you see that often and we've seen a ton of it already Eric Wilson's problems here was he couldn't cover the pass let's see if jiren Hall can make them pass hand off goes to Tai Chandler right side across the 45 hit at the 45 and stopped at the 46 of the Vikings it'll be a gain of four so that'll make it second and six as we are quickly approaching the two-minute warning the Vikings have three timeouts Matt laflor and the Green Bay Packers have two and it's second and six from the 46 with Green Bay leading 173 trying to play that old end of uh half into the second half game where you get points get the ball then score again jiren Hall fifth round rookie from BYU goes under Center Ty Chandler is The Tail Back JJ in motion to the left where he joins at joins Addison big Blitz on Hall and he goes down he never had a chance Quay Walker with the sack at the 35 I mean Hall turned around to look down the field and that seven was right up in his face third down yeah that well that's that's the running back that's Ty Chandler has to step up and you know as much as Quay Walker has struggled in zone coverages he's really done a good job he's a good Blitzer and you know it's just that simple as a running back you got to take the guy down the middle you can't just run the football you got to be able to pass protect two sacks today for the Green Bay Packers and it's third and 16 for Minnesota when we return it's the two-minute warning Green Bay lead 173 closing in on halftime and the KFA in Minnesota Vikings radio network driven by Polaris if you've got the right tools and the friendly

the radio home of the Vikings golfers and wild Minnesota sports station is FM 100.3 k FN now back to the stadium and the fans Paul [Music] Allen 173 Green Bay hey hey Ben Liber are we putting Jaren Hall on far too many deep drops you know I I don't think so you know we've caught a few boots here and there but um look he's he's flat out missed just a couple people and then that last one on that Quay Walker sack as you guys described it he had no chance at all Hall on Third and 16 back to pass steps up fast ball incomplete he overshot the intended receiver Jordan Addison by I don't know 30 ft and here's Ryan right to pun looked like he kind of second guessed it as he let it go too cuz that was not a spiral that was absolutely a duck that he threw so whether or not he wanted to you know pull that thing down but he did have some opportunities a good job stepping up and look at him it just slipped out of his hand for God's sake I mean you know jiren Hall Paul like you said not all of it's on him but we got a lot of guys that need to pick it up super high punch by Ryan Wright and Jaden Reed called for a fair catch AI Thompson got it but Reed called for that too late man yeah he did I mean he and he didn't get it above his shoulder right I mean Reed right before Thompson encountered him just like waved his hand fair catch I don't know what else he can do and then Thompson hit him I mean this is no that that's that's a penalty onry back I'm well for Naji Thompson he's already on his you know on his way to tackle him there's no way that he can see that and he's absolutely within two yards before he waves that fair catch I mean it was really literally one step before he wait there's no foul on the play as the signal was laid and the tackle had already begun it's first down play Martin his uh his staff calls the most illegal shifts of all official officiating staffs in the NFL uh they've called Nine unnecessary roughnesses that's second most Green Bay is eight unnecessary roughness calls this year second most in the NFL Green Bay also has three unsportsmanlike conducts against it that's most in the NFL the Martin staff officiated Vikings at Philly week two and called just two penalties against the Minnesota Vikings that Thursday night we already have three with 147 to go in the first half Green Bay leads 173 backed up first and 10 from its own 12 Jordan love out of the shotgun Jaden Reed in motion to the left back to the right hand up Aon Jones room left side across the 15 gets out of the outside of the numbers flag comes in cam B him the Vikings leading tackler brings him down after a run of nine now something at the point of attack so probably holding interesting play call by Green Bing offense number 71 one penalty will be forced half the distance to the goal from the spot of the foul replay first down right tell you what it's nice to get a lucky break like that look I've tallied up the last two drives the Packers have had 17 plays and we're not doing ourselves any favors in those 17 plays we've only put them in two third downs and both of those were third one we ha got to do a better job on first and second down to force third long situations 142 to go in the first half first and 16 for Green Bay from the six with a 173 lead love from the shotgun flares it out right flat to Jaden Reed who has a catching touchdown brings it in at the five turns it up to the 10 out of Bounds at the 17 so that's an 11 yd connection love to read second and five for Green Bay from its own 17 yeah right now we're going with kind of a modified dime with three look got three linebackers in there a Brian Austin was in there and he only had three def defensive lineman so kind of a 335 set so trying to keep the ball in front of him love out of the shotgun HEI in motion to the left of Jordan love Jaden Reed to the right they're going to run Aaron Jones with a gun run he turns it up outside to the 20 yd line where he's upended after a run of four so that now will make it third and one clock continues to run the Vikings have three timeouts Green Bay has two third and one from the Green Bay 21 with the Packers leading 173 Packers are 50% three of six on third down and a Jordan love throwing is 12 of 17 for 148 and a touchdown to the rookie Jaden Reed pistol formation it is AJ Aaron Jones behind Jordan love Jaden Reed in motion to the right on Third and one from the Green Bay 21 Love Takes the snap he fakes the handoff straight drop Jordan luck deep shot Jaden Reed incomplete a Caleb held up with him that time yes 47 seconds to go in the first half and a Green Bay and to Daniel weedland are pting that's a pretty aggressive play call you got to Matt laflor must be feeling really good about his defense right now to take that shot deep yeah and be able to give the football back to the Vikings with 47 seconds left in three timeouts it gives you really another opportunity to put points on the board yeah although but if you see 21 singled on anybody I mean with all due respect I got to go there every single time yeah I mean he was single he was he had a little bit of help in the middle of the field but Caleb Caleb Evans played that one well wheelen takes the orac snap bad punt it's going to bounce at the 42 Brandon pal picked it up at the 34 and he will lunge ahead to the 39 yd line for safety Rudy for touches him down so here's the deal Green Bay lead 173 love to read and love on a read option ran into the end zone and it was very close he Dove for the End Zone got the ball over the stripe and a field goal by Anders Carlson Greg Joseph from 54 the only Vikings points we have 39 seconds to go in the first half the Vikings get the ball to begin the second half and it's first and 10 Minnesota from its own 38 Vikings have three timeouts jiren Hall under Center the BYU rookie four of nine 58 yds and a pick he goes back to pass fourman rush he'll flare it out left caught Madison on the Run 3540 there is a packer at the 45 and he's going to get out of bounds for a first down that was actually oh no they say he was out of bounds after a gain of eight he stepped out of bounds but that was uh that might have been fortuitous cuz that tackle happened in bounds and they may have said they might try to keep that clock running so right but uh nice job by by Madison and you know for for jiren Hall he's he's getting time when the when the Packers are rushian four he he's getting he's getting time he's having the ability to step up in the pocket it's just when they decide to Blitz that's when it's been trouble second and two from the Vikings 46 Johnny mutt in short motion to the right Green Bay rushes for Preston Smith with a scrip sack on jiren Hall just like Lambo Field Green Bay ball that was Preston Smith on the outside of Christian darasa now I don't know if if the pocket was too deep or the quarterback was too deep it drifted too far back but darasa giv up the edge and nice timing by by Preston Smith to get his hand in there and get that ball free but a a rare sack given up by Christian darasa and for Preston Smith his eighth sack this year in his ninth season from Mississippi State the Green Bay Packers are plus two in the take give they are plus two on the season for the Minnesota Vikings their 32nd giveaway this year and again 185% of Vikings drives into this game have ended in turnovers that's so by far worse in the NFL it's not even worth saying anymore first down for Green Bay from the Vikings 37 173 green and gold love identifying Harrison Smith pointed at him Harrison comes on a blitz love throws left caught Romeo S at the 25 yd line catch of 12 he gets out of bounds first down first down Green Bay with 22 seconds to go in the first half yeah and then and for dos that's just a that's just a speed out that's a you know seven yards up the field and then work to the sideline and again Paul I'm seeing our defensive backs just being very late on the on the break Jay Ward little late getting out there in the flat mcki Blackman just a little bit late on the break as well so got to get more competitive on the edges Vikings are minus 11 this year in the take give good God first down for Green Bay from the 25 yd line of the Vikings leading 173 love Stands Tall out of the shotgun three receivers right goes on a deep drop fires to the right side incomplete throw it behind to Romeo dobs covered by Makai Blackman so now'll be third down I make that second down second and 10 from the 25 17 seconds to go in the first half yeah switching in a little manto man coverage so McKai Blackman doing a nice job on on that last one and again that's with Jordan love got you know keep making him think he's he's been in such a good Rhythm getting rid of the football quickly we doing decent job once if we're making him drop back and trying to give him a different look Jaden Reed in motion to the right three to the right in a triangle formation as love out of the shotgun goes back to pass he hits Reed on a slant over the middle missed Tackle by The Hitman 20 1510 Jaden Reed touchdown Green Bay a 25 yd touchdown by Jaden Reed and Green Bay has opened up 233 now just a simple Crossing route about 5 yds down the field and two Vikings one of which was Harrison Smith I didn't catch who the other one was but two missed tackles and then Caleb Evans bouncing off and you know you get the you get the big you get the you get the touchdown so it was Reed that was actually late as well so between Harrison Smith and and Reed they uh they got to make that play Anders Carlson extra point try is no good he missed it left Anders Carlson now 31 of 36 on extra points 8 seconds to go in the first half and Green Bay is a 23-3 lead Jordan love is two touchdown passes both to Jordan Reed and he ran for the other and we we run down to Ben Leever yeah you guys touched on it our Corners are having a rough rough day they look sloppy in coverage they're missing guys they're late to recognize some of the the routes and the breaks their feet look sloppy and you know on top of that look if we're going to Blitz as much as we are we got to get home you know this is another game where defensively we're starting to bring a little bit more pressure here in the second quarter and they're doing a good job of picking everything up so you're going to leave your corners and your secondary hanging out to dry a little bit when you sacrifice some guys just to Blitz and you don't get home so I guess credit to Green Bay they're they're understanding when we're when we're going to Blitz where we're going to Blitz they're picking it up just delivering you know some quick easy timing Rhythm throws and we're not making the plays yeah you're and a piggyback on that when you look at this time of possession with the Packers having a 7 and 1 half minute advantage and it's only the first half that you know these short routes and you start missing tackles and getting leaky in the running game those all those things all point to it and another kickoff return about 5 yds deep comes canade to the 15 20 25 angles left to the 30 and he is taken down by Christian Welch the former Iowa Hawkeye after a return of 37 yards it took 5 seconds so we have 3 seconds to go in the first half and the Vikings get the ball to begin the second half and they're trailing 233 jiren Hall 5 of 10 67 yds his first complete took place early in the second quarter jiren Hall's going to go to a knee to let this half end and it's a half dominated by the 7 and8 Green Bay Packers Vikings get the ball to begin the second half that's when uh we next will chat with you following mus in the halftime show on the KFA in Minnesota Vikings radio network driven by Polaris

5 of 10 67 yards and that interception uh so far he hasn't had a lot of time when the blitz come they've gotten there and they've gotten home easily yeah and and I've counted two or three of those blitzes coming from a play action pass from under Center instead of shotgun so when you go from under Center to play action pass I mean you're already 3 seconds into your play clock before you even turn your head around and I don't know if that's the line not blocking or jiren Hall not getting through his progression quick enough but I'm sure the Vikings are going to have to figure out how to get jiren to get the ball out of his hands a lot quicker to get this offense going we're trying to figure out okay how is Melton open wide wide open he had that 28 y they missed him on another one the blown coverages and Kai Blackman and also the Caleb Evans have been torched so far yeah this Green Bay Packers offense they they're figuring out when we're in man coverage or when we're in uh Zone coverage and I'm not sure if that's if we're not discussing our coverages as well or if the greenway Packer is sending fake motions to see where our defense is lined up it's helping them get get more time but yeah they are testing our quarterbacks early and often and so far they've been successful somewhere in about like 40 seconds time span here what can we do in the second half to turn the fortunes here down 233 uh starts in the trenches on both sides of the ball don't give up sacks the strip sack to Preston Smith on the offensive side of the ball run the ball downhill on offense and defense stopped the run this is a a Green Bay Packers run offense that has 60 I think almost 80 rushing yards before the half Aaron Jones has almost 70 rushing yards before they half so win the trenches you have a better chance of winning this game rushing net they got 85 they got a total of 265 to our 82 yards total offense there in the first half Gabe thank you so much appreciate it hey

that's E A mn.com the radio home of the Vikings gophers and wild Minnesota sports station is FM 100.3 KF now back to the stadium and the fans Paul Allen hey welcome back 233 Green Bay the Vikings get the ball to begin the second half and we pause for station identification it's Minnesota Vikings football meet sauce here Vikings football now Power Trip Morning Show tomorrow on FM 100.3 kfxn Minneapolis St Paul The Fan well we may have a change at quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings as Nick Mullins was working out working out rigorously as the Minnesota Vikings hit the sideline for the second half jiren Hall the BYU rookie 5 of 10 67 yards and he's been sacked three times Preston Smith with a strip sack Quay Walker got him once and Isaiah McDuffy and kby woodn't also sacked in boom there's Anders Carlson's kick bar High P Wan wo three yds deep to the to the 10 gets to the 15 jumps over a packer after that to the 20 now he Fe to the 35 oh he stumbled at the 41 the ball has come out but one of the officials says can was down right around the 43 y 46 yd return by K and he was a he was uh a cleat tackle away from taking that to the house and Nick Mullins is in a quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings Nick Mull with six turnovers in his two starts against Cincinnati and Detroit and Nick Mullins will supplant jiren Hall into the second half Allen roach the voice of US Bank Stadium just announced it and there were many cheers nothing against jiren Hall is just a very very tall order for a fifth round rookie in a situation like this so Nick Mullins wearing number 12 he goes out of the shotgun puts AJ in motion trailing 233 play action Green Bay blitzes pass to the right caught Jefferson first down in front of the Packers bench in Green Bay territory at about the 47 no the 45 yd line catch of 12 first down yeah great job by JJ and and you know and you can see the difference of Mullins he knows exactly what he's seeing the Packers Blitz he knows he has one-on-one on the outside so he's going to go to the comeback to JJ Mullins in a hurry out of the shotgun Tai Chandler by his side first and 10 from the Green Bay 45 gun run to Chandler right up the middle into the awaiting arms of Carl Brooks for a gain of one Brooks is a rookie from Bowling Green sixth round rookie they like a lot second and nine and there's no reason that is as Mullins gets up to the line of scrimmage and the Packers are just playing too deep that we can't get at least three to four yards on a run you don't even have eight guys in the box and Brian O'Neal I get was crossface by defensive lineman so we got to do a better job up front with our offensive line and shutting that off Mullins 22 of 26 for 41 two touchdowns and four picks against Detroit back to pass it's a screen to Tai Chandler left side 4540 angles to the right first down to the 35 lowers the helmet to the 33 it is an 11 yd catch and run by Tai Chandler and the offense now being orchestrated by the veteran Nick Mullins now and right now ran Gary impr Preston Smith check out so I would assume one of these offensive coaches next to me saw that and said all right now you have the defensive ends that you want I mean Lucas nothing against Lucas vaness and Kingsley andbar but now's our opportunity to start throwing the football Nick Mullins goes under Center on first down first and 10 from the Green Bay 32 Josh Oliver in motion to the left Flags allar Vikings what what is it about the 30 some yard line that start offense number 71 he was in a three-point stance and then rose up out of that stance you serious first down okay so fourth penalty now I I didn't see the penalty itself but if they're if they're if they're going to start calling that I'd love to see it if he now if he act looked like he was the ball was snapped but if he just picked his hand up I I don't know if I've ever seen that particular penalty called anyway so now it's first and 15 from from the Green Bay 37 Nick Mullen starts the second half at quarterback Jordan Addison in motion to the left play action Nick back to pass Under Pressure passes right caught Johnny M flag on the play 3530 angles far side to the 25 yd line catching run of 12 yds on First and 15 by Johnny Mt flag came in about the middle of the play I think it was either Ingram downfield depending on where the ball was caught or he was blocking before blocking too soon so I think either way it's going to go against us the ball was delivered a little bit late because of the blitz eligible Man Down field offense number 67 there you go 5y penalty first down I'm serious Paul I don't know what it is about the 35 yd line or so that we just fall apart whether it's penalties or sacks or whatever it is we we've been able to get down there but we just can't break through it so got to tighten things up right and yeah there some mistakes from jiren Hall and everything but these kinds of mistakes are not on the quarterback this is the rest of the team that needs to step up Mullen six-year Southern Miss empty backfield nobody back there with him three receivers right two left from the Green Bay 42 on First and 20 back to pass he's hit and he's sacked Nic Mullins was sacked back in Vikings territory at the 48 yd line Kean Nixon one of their Corners along with Devonte Wyatt got him for an 8- yd loss now it's second and 28 yeah they had overloaded that side of the line Paul with the three defensive lineman and if when you get a chance to see it you know Alexander Madison or Jordan Addison sees that and tries to hook up but it was too late Mullen second and 28 passes over the middle caught Johnny mun at the 40 and he'll bulog his way to the 36 yd line for a gain of 14 on second and 28 so they got half of it back third and 14 11 1/2 minutes to go in the third quarter and the clock stops a member of the Green Bay Packers is down it may be Preston Preston Smith wow he has a sack it was a strip sack on jiren Hall we pause on the

36 Nick Mullins at quarterback back to pass he'll throw over the middle caught first down JJ at the 17 and he spins his way between the hash marks to the 15 for a gain of 21 and a Vikings first down that that was a hell of a throw by Nick Mullins because JJ was nowhere near the curl area he threw that football to a spot right before he got hit and just outside of Darnell Savage so that's a great that's a heck of a throw by by uh uh J by not by jiren H by Nick Mullins he just saw that sat back in there never really set his feet because of the blitz man that was a nice job Mullins four of four 59 yds jiren Hall didn't complete his first pass to the second quarter Nick from under Center play action he'll flare it out to the right and incomplete Johnny Mt covered nicely by Jonathan Owens a fifth year safety out of Missouri Missouri Western so now second and 10 from the Green Bay 15 here's something interesting to know about Green Bay their second half defense at Carolina last game they allowed 20 points 260 yards 185 passing yards Bryce young went 16 of 20 for two touchdowns against this defense alone in the second half and now it's second and 10 for Minnesota trailing 233 from the Green Bay 15 Nick Mullins at the helmar he's under Center snap Chandler left side 15 bounces off Eric Wilson to the 10 en Bari brings him down at the 9 yd Line 6yd run for Tai Chandler and it'll be second and four and you know and for for Green Bay that third down sorry Preston Smith coming out you know losing him's a big deal but they've already lost uh they've already lost their backup linebacker and Isaiah McDuffy so we got Eric Wilson in there you've got a lot of you've got a lot of guys who haven't started a lot of football on this Green Bay defense so the opportunities like we talked about the earlier parer there Vikings one of five on third down this is third and three from the Green Bay eight Mullins out of the shotgun looking left now he sees nothing he'll throw out to the right and it's caught at the 12 yd line by Chandler makes one man miss at the 10 and he lunges ahead to the nine that's going to be a loss of one that's going to be a loss of one after all that so now it's Fourth and four from the Green Bay nine Kevin oconnell keeping his offense on the field the Minnesota Vikings can make the playoffs this year by winning their final two games seems to be a tall order catching Green Bay here 233 down and this fourth down here fourth and four from the nine this is one of the if not the bigger plays of the entire season Nick Mullins with two receivers right KJ Osborne catchless to the left Mullins puts Jefferson in motion to the left on fourth down takes the snap straight drop he'll Step Up throw to the end zone incomplete how is that not a flag center of the end zone Looking for JJ from my angle up here you have JJ coming and he's getting he's just basically being blocked by the defensive back on the Sleep Number scoreboard Green Bay ball

48 yards Take 6 minutes 11 seconds and turn the ball over on Downs Green Bay leads 233 and Jordan love goes under Center first and 10 from his own 9yd line Aaron Jones is the tail back some Mari Tay in motion to the right hand off Jones big room up the middle 1520 Sprints to the 25 and he handles a Caleb Evans with a stiff arm to get him to the 35 yd line that's going to be a 26 yd run for Aaron Jones and a first down for Green Bay Jones now with 93 yards yeah now here comes the Run do do do do do here comes the run now smart for Green Bay being up by 20 points the only thing you have that huge time of possession and I just have to think I just you have to think that they're going to keep this clock moving as best they can love under Center AJ Dylan the tail back Malik Heath wide right and Samari T left Tucker craft in motion hand off Dylan right up the middle he's wrapped up right at the line of scrimmage by Patrick Jones it's a gain of one second and nine yeah I I will say this about Aaron Jones is that if you get one guy out of his gap or one guy not doing his job Jones is good good enough to just find that and then take it to the next level and so he's been very explosive the last couple of weeks in the running game for Green Bay like you said Paul he's he's already almost at 100 yards they're at over 100 in rushing already and like I said if they if they can if they feel like they can run the football they're going to keep on doing it pistol formation but now Dylan shifts to the left of Jordan love wearing number 10 facing a big Blitz he's going to fade into single coverage to Romeo dos incomplete at the Vikings 33 good coverage by McKai Blackman a catchable ball for dos third and nine yeah that was it was good that was a heck of a throw by the quarter by by the quarterback Jordan love while he saw the one-on-one on the outside and over the last couple of weeks he he's had enough confidence now to say hey if I see oneon-one on the outside I'm I'm just going to take the shot and just a tick over thrown but Jordan love is getting so much more conf confident in his deep passing Green Bay three of seven on third down this is third and nine from its own 36 with a 23-3 lead middle of the third quarter play clock down to two Jordan Love Takes the snap empty Back Field Jay Ward blitzes pass over the middle first down a pass to Malik Heath and he gets to the 50 yd line cold blooded connection of 14 and a first down for the green and gold yeah I I really don't know at some point Paul you've got to you can't keep disguising and get yourself out of position that was an easy throw and catch middle of the field wide open there was nobody there now unless unless Ivan pace is supposed to Pivot and get work his way back the other direction that was just way too easy first down for Green Bay heading to the east side of US Bank Stadium they scrimmage from the norsman logo and love back to pass out of the shotgun he'll flip one left caught Tucker craft runs through a viking at the 45 that was um a Caleb Evans and it'll be a gain of 10 yds and another first down for Green Bay yeah he you know and Ben I don't know how many times they've they've run that exact same route but they're happy with getting getting Tucker craft one-on-one with Caleb Evans well they're they're happy getting any of their ball carries out against our Corners not one of our Corners actually wants to Bow their neck up and hit a guy and wrap up and get the guy to the ground and and on top of that I'm tired of watching this blitz and actually just run right into the middle of these offensive linemen just pick aide and try to get free Ben Sims with the Vikings in training camp in motion to the left on first down and the handoff goes to Aaron Jones and they're able to wrap him up at about the 40 yd line it'll be no game making it second and 10 Aaron Jones 15 runs 94 yds Jordan love 16 of 24 passing for 203 couple of touchdowns and Jaden Reed has six catches is 89 yds and both those touchdowns yeah I'm watching maai Blackman walk and he's he's got his left hand y right on his hip so you can tell that that shoulder is definitely bothering and the Vikings are down Byron Murphy Jr second and 10 from the Vikings 40 with a 20-point lead in the third quarter Jordan love shotgun takes the snap 5an Rush floats out to the right Bard stopped him so he'll float one to the other side of the field to Aaron Jones who angles right the Vikings blew a tackle again and Aaron Jones is able to fall ahead for a gain of 10 and a Green Bay Packers first down yeah you had you know you had Jordan love you didn't know what to do with the football you have two Defenders out there you know it's Harrison Smith and the Caleb Evans and neither one of them are really able to come up with the tackle Ball but that's the thing it's that is just like a long handoff you have to just work to your Gap make the running back cut back inside to your help and cannot allow that many yards after catch eighth play of a possession that has gone 62 yds taking 3 and 1/2 minutes first down for Green Bay from the Vikings 30 leading 233 love he'll hand the ball off to Dylan and uh Dylan heads up the middle and AJ is hit by Harrison Phillips Falls ahead for a gain of five second and five and Sheldon day checks back in and we you know we talked about that going into this game just kind of the lack of depth I mean Jonathan bullard's been in there quite a bit kyus Tonga and Sheldon day so if you're trying to run a a three-man defensive line up front you really you don't have a lot of depth and the time of possession is way in favor of Green Bay second and five for Green Bay from the Vikings 25 it's a pistol formation with Jordan love in the short shot and behind him is AJ Dylan who gets the call he runs through the line of scrimmage lowers the helmet on cam bhum pushes him about 3 ft and he stops at the 20 for a gain of five very close to the first down I think they're just a bit short yeah they're going to mark this one about about a nudge of the football and I'll tell you what another Point Paul is just holding this Packer team to a field goal attempt I mean a few plays ago we were talking about just keeping them from scoring but you let them you let them get a touchdown here and yeah that dagger might be coming out Green Bay four of eight on third down this is third and less than one with love under Center takes the snap gives it to Jones runs up the middle first down he'll plunge ahead to the 18 yd line Ivan Pace Jr stopped him gain of two clock continues to run uh the clock absolutely an adversary of the Minnesota Vikings first and 10 from the 18 for Green Bay and that's uh 25 rushes for Green Bay two of them on two of them with Jord Love but you know one of them was called on the on the option on the goal line 25 runs 25 passes yeah they're they're very balanced and teams have not been very good at running the football against us all Years first and 10 from the 18 of the Minnesota Vikings for Jordan Love Leading 233 goes back to pass fourman rush bouncing around in the pocket dump over the middle caught Ben Sims at the 15 and he'll dive ahead to the 12 for a gain of six and it'll be second and four SS undrafted from Baylor spent the offseason with the Minnesota Vikings and a training camp he played in preseason games from the Vikings they put him on the practice squad they were really really hoping nobody would take him Green Bay adroitly did and he's played a bunch of games for them this year yeah they got a bit of a log Jam with Luke Musgrave being out you got Tucker cph and tuara and Ben Sims they've got they've got a good stable of young tight ends on that team second and four one of them Tucker craft in motion to the left two TDS this year here love under Center goes to Aaron Jones and he spurts up the middle shakes the Sheldon day tackle gets to the 10 between the hash marks for a gain of two yards so it's going to be third and very short again for Green Bay with the clock continuing to run we're down to 120 and counting to go in the third quarter yeah kind of a disappointing answer for the defense you know you get Mullin back in there the offense is able to move ultimately runs out of steam on a on a fourth and four play and Green Bay is meticulously just up you know just up and down the field so bit of a disappointing drive at the moment for the Vikings here comes the 13th play of an 82 yd possession that's taken half of the third quarter love on third down back to pass goes on a deep drop throws to a man wide open in the end zone CLP touchdown that is a touchdown for Bo Melton a 9yd touchdown and for Bo Melton first year from ruter that is is his first National Football League touchdown and that's just Josh matelis covering him on the over route and then just stops I you know that's a part of this whole thing is today that I've seen more so than any other time of the year are just these deep Crossing routes and the safeties in the corners just not knowing what to do with it and just turning guys loose you can't do that snap to wheelen and unders Carlson makes the extra Point 49 seconds to

scoreboard Central brought to you by the Minnesota lottery play the new Vikings scratch game from the Minnesota Lottery with a chance to win up to $100,000 instantly we thought there was hope still for the Vikings prior to this game starting up you got the Steelers beating the Seahawks now very big hole to dig out of here's PA indeed 30 to3 here Green Bay 13 plays 91 yds took 8 minutes of quarter number three and Bo Melton CAU his first NFL touchdown here's K Wan wo from the 2yd line he walks up to the 10 tries to put the pedal to the metal but um Eric Wilson and a fired up Green Bay Packers teams group able to slow him and that is a 15yd return now Jordan love is number one in the National Football League for third quarter passer rating at 1248 on that possession the only possession they've had in the third in the third quarter uh he went four of five for 42 yards so he's he's uh you know uh from the time the Vikings beat him week eight a Lambo uh 16 touchdowns three picks for love you absolutely can see how much better he's gotten first down toss right Alexander Madison turns it up left to the 20 lowers the helmet of the 25 and he'll run ahead to the 32 or 33 yd line it'll be a gain of nine second and one nearing the end of the third quarter and Paul the scary part is how much he's left on the table I mean he's he left a couple big plays on the table and I think a lot of that has to do just with fundamentals and how he sets his feet yeah I know he watched Aaron Rogers but he's not Aaron Rogers you know he's got to be his own man and right you know so opportunities there are a lot of opportunities that were there too for him to even do better than what he did and speaking of number 12 that's what Mullins wears he started the second half throws it over the middle his arm was hit by Kenny Clark as he threw it and the ball Falls incomplete with 5 Seconds to go in the third quarter that'll make it third and one from the Vikings 26 Green Bay leads 30-3 and Jaden Reed wide receiver for the Packers walking off the field into the locker room so he kind of double clutched that and and Kenny Clark was able to hit him in the elbow and very very lucky that that ball was not intercepted by Quay Walker and like I said Paul it's it's been minus two I mean it's part of this whole story it's the a topic minus two in the take give Mullen starting the second half missed tackles and blown coverages third and short really play stop so game are you serious is is it delay of game clock's at zero or illegal sh game offense number 12 5yd penalty wow third down this is yeah this this is start this is starting to when you when you can't get substitutions in there you finally got a third and short um and you're not getting to the line of scrimmage that's a that's a lack of urgency right that's the old lineman having to break the Huddle jog to the line of scrimmage get set everybody needs to know where they're going to go and we're just missing that and we're starting to see these parts falling apart Ed Ingram out at Right Guard more from Nacho liever around the corner Blake brandell is in third and six Mullins passes over the middle it's caught by Jordan Addison at the 25 two ydd shy of the first down so after that four- yd catch we pause Green Bay leads 30-3 in Border battle 127 from Minneapolis into the fourth quarter this is

midnight Eastern the Minnesota Vikings have found a way to drop the ball metaphorically uh markedly earlier than the traditional ball drop they are trailing 30 to3 jiren Hall start of the game it didn't work Nick Mullins came in in the second half drove them down inside the Red Zone went forward on fourth down didn't get it now Ryan Wright is puning and to field it oh Samari T he get it nii Nai Thompson with a tank Samar T because Jaden Reeds out of the game with injury well he just did something foolish and tried to field a punt with nii up on him first and goal Vikings from the seven hey we got to take yeah we finally got one and for Naji Thompson Paul I couldn't be happier for him here's a guy that's been playing so well at the Gunner position working so hard doing a great job and finally comes up with a huge play and that was an absolute muff punt that he was able to get back up and jump on so here we go it'll be first and goal Nick Mullins on one possession six of nine 61 yards JJ is three catches for 46 yds the Vikings are touchd downless into the fourth quarter and US Bank Stadium roots on its favorite team in hopes of getting back into border battle 127 Mullins under Center Tai Chandler the tail back now Mullins scoots out to become a wide receiver right and it's a direct snap to Chandler he heads up the middle and right into the awaiting arms of a Green Bay Packer who absolutely smacked him that's TJ Slayton third year from Florida still a gain of two second and goal from the five yeah and TJ Slayton has has done a really nice job for Green Bay especially against the Run he's he's he's huge and he's long he definitely has those long arms and in this case he gets off the double team I mean you you have two offensive linemen on him and he's still able to beat both Ryner and Bradberry to get off and make that tackle mollins out of the shotgun trailing by 27 early in the fourth quarter puts Jefferson in motion to the right AJ Osborne by himself out to the left it is a play action pass left caught Johnny M touchdown Vikings 5yd touchdown connection Mullins to Johnny Mt for Nick his fifth touchdown this season for Johnny his first this season second of his career and it's 30-9 Green Bay yeah great job on on the play fake you set the first play up with the direct snap and then come away at the play action and Johnny munts is doing a nice job working himself underneath and great throw by Nick Mullen so the timing was there you know Nick probably didn't get a lot of snaps this week with with jiren Hall taking over but looked good

heard on FM 100.3 and the iHeart Radio the W for free no subscription needed to listen to the [Applause] fan here they come the Green Bay Packers with a 310 lead 1406 to go in the game Jordan love is under Center this is the first four touchdown game of his career three by Air One by land hand off Aaron Jones up the middle across the line of scrimmage encountered by Patrick Jones and Ivan Pace Jr along with Harrison Phillips and Jonathan Bullard gain of three second seven and possessions man that's that's the thing we're we're definitely in a at least a two possession game two-score game as Anthony Bar comes out Mai Blackman jogging off and you can you can see how mcki Blackman isn't able to swing his right arm it's just kind of hanging from his hip so he's definitely not 100% but um yeah we got to get the ball back in the hands of the offense Paul as quickly as possible Aaron Jones 18 runs 103 yds love back to pass fast ball left caught at the 37 yd line by Bo Malon for a first down it'll be a catch of eight yards and Bo Melton playing extensively the last few games due to Christian Watson and a hamstring injury Davian Wicks a um a rookie they like a lot uh he rookie from Virginia he's also out so Bo Melton in his first R Year from ruers on the Carolina Panthers practice or excuse me on the P practice squad he he has emerged with a touchdown the first of his career four catches 57 yds for Bo Melton first down Green Bay from its own 37 Tucker CFT in motion to the right two tight ends they're balanced Jordan love goes out of the shotgun puts Aaron Jones to his right it's a gun run with Jones up the middle and he will shoot past the 40 yd line and be tackled around the waist by denil Hunter a gain of seven second and three and you look at the defense and Patrick Jones is getting an opportunity with DJ wanam being out and being out for the rest of the year and you know you you you can survive injuries here and there but you get to a certain Tipping Point I think defensively uh where and well offensively as well with the quarterback situation but you just you just start to wear out and I think that's kind of how I the defense has played today well they look tired they look wore out they you know they they're they're making mistakes that we haven't seen them make all year the Packers offense operating without Jaden Reed as love goes back to pass fires left on the slant caught Romeo dos in Vikings territory to the 45 to the 44 gain of 12 and another first down Jaden Reed has caught two touchdown passes 689 and two for Reed but he's back in the locker room right now doesn't seem to matter Green Bay is moving her rather fluidly now getting a chance to see Jordan love Paul if there's anything that that has improved on him it's just just as decision making and how quickly he's able to do that um you know that's a run pass type of an option and he made a great read and and the disguise with Cameron bham playing off just allowed dos to get that first down Shawn Ryan in a Right Guard they rotate guards love from the shotgun throws right flat incomplete to Melton Evans on the coverage second and 10 sasy throw to the flat which you know for Green Bay they're still trying to mix it up I would I would be I would assume they would just try to keep this thing on the ground and keep that clock running cuz that's really their their only threat right now but now we're getting to about the 44 yd line so yeah the defense is going to have to show itself up cuz even if they don't get the first down they may be able to try a long field goal two Ray and dos to the right Malik Heath and Tucker craft to the left love out of the shotgun hands it to Jones runs through the line of scrimmage 40 between the hash marks angles left to the 35 and he's taken down at the 33 yd line it's a 16 yd run for Aaron Jones who has cut clear for 126 yards on this defense now we got to our guys have to keep their feet Harrison Phillips has to keep the cat when he gets a double team off has to keep his feet and to Ben lever's Point like he had said earlier we're blitzing but when we're Blitz we're just taking guys right down the middle and when you do that you you're basically giving up both gaps on either sides so even you know even something that we've mastered throughout this year and blitzing are just not being effective tonight Patrick jaylor third year from Memphis their third back he's in the game Malik Heath in motion to the right now he goes back to the left and play stoppage timeout Green Bay Green Bay's first time out

the Vikings 33 and they lead 30-1 Jordan love with a hand off to the left side across the 35 yd line goes Patrick Taylor and that is a gain of one yard so it'll be second and nine Taylor a third-year back from Memphis backs up Aaron Jones and AJ Dylan and old Aaron Jones 20 runs 121 yards not much on the catching front for Aaron Jones no and that's that's what interesting part of his game lately is they haven't really depended him on him as a receiver uh but he has been explosive in the Run game second and nine Green Bay from the Vikings 32 with a 20po lead in Border battle 127 o Melton in motion to the left love facing a blitz he'll throw it out to the right caught Tucker Craft on Josh matelis it's not that long of a game maybe a couple of yards so it'll be third and seven from the 30 and and and Pete you mentioned earlier about you know players defensively for the Vikings looking tired I mean this is a losers lament but it also is fact like Jo Josh matelis has played 94% of the defensive snaps this year I mean that's like four times more than he's ever played in his life right but you know but still though you you it's still a mentality thing Paul and and there are a lot of there are other guys in this league that have played 94% of the snaps it's just point mental errors though tonight the drops in coverage just uncharacteristic Green Bay 60% on third down and love goes back to pass fires it out to the left caught by Bo Melton it's a first down for Green Bay after an 11 yd reception I mean seriously as the as the lineage of Green Bay Packers football goes it's almost like who needs Donald Driver who needs Greg Jennings you have Bo Melton are you kidding me right well we're not even you know you're not even challenging him you had guy Blackman playing off coverage and soon as the ball snapped he's backpedaling you know without awareness knowing that they're going to want to just get to the sticks and it's really uncontested so Jordan love is just really this is seven on seven for him he's just out there picking us apart first and 10 from the Vikings 19 Melton orbits behind love to the right and out of the shotgun it's a handoff and Patrick Taylor heads to the left side for a gain of one yard down to about the 18 yd line so it'll be second and nine for Green Bay as Samar Chay checks into the game that could be good news for the Vikings I mean they have one takeaway this game and it was Samar tour screwing up a punt he muffed it and then the Vikings got their only touchdown of the game and touray is playing extensively because the super talented Jaden Reed is back in the locker room and he brought two receiving touchdowns with him Midway through the fourth quarter Green Bay by 20 second and eight from the 17 of the Vikings hand off Patrick Taylor right up the middle and he he shakes and a Caleb Evans tackle at the 15 and he'll roll down to the 13 for a run of four so it's third and four from the Vikings 13 now and for and Ben lever I don't know what the average third down on this whole drive has been I think he alluded to it earlier but it's been third and long up and down up really up and down the field and I just don't see Green Bay running the football here I I think that they're going to try to take advantage again on the outside on one-on-one matchup Green Bay seven of 11 on third down this is third and four from the Vikings 13 Jordan love with three touchdown passes works out of the shotgun Patrick Taylor by his side makes the snap Vikings Rush four glove sidearm production right to Samari T at the 17 so they're going to lose four yards on that but love was under duress and love so far this evening yet to be sacked by a member of the Minnesota Vikings and here is Anders Carlson for a field goal try now well as as uncharacteristic as as tonight was for the offense I mean you had jiren Hall starting in there defensively it has been a rough evening just no answers not being able to get doubt three and outs I mean it's it's been a long night for 37 yd Drive Right hash snap spot and the kick is good now we have uh the potential of a frus unfurling TJ Slayton involved in it but nevertheless the Minnesota Vikings can go ahead and win this little battle where was that an hour ago I don't know Green Bay won the war 611 to go in the game 3310 Green Bay on the KFA Minnesota Vikings radio network driven by

radio and FM 100.3 kfn The Fan welcome back to US Bank Stadium it was another field goal by the Packers it's 33 to10 and guys I stumbled across this stat and I just I'm shocked we know that our defense has just been a Civ today we can't stop a thing so the Packers have had 26 first downs in this game so far seven of those have come on third down which means that 19 first downs have been a accomplished on first or second down alone wow and only two of those were penalties so you're looking at 15 Wan wo out of the end zone far side of the 10 to the 15 to the 20 taken down at the 22 yd line a 24 yd return Green Bay most recent uh points Andre Carlson from 37 but they went 13 plays and took 7 Minutes 55 seconds I mean the the field goal Drive was 755 uh the touchdown Drive drive to Melton took 8 minutes and uh they have uh they have one scoring drive at five and change so I mean they're chewing on the clock they've had the ball 15 minutes more than we have 342 to 1913 wow Nick mullin's been the quarterback all second half back to pass throws left and it's caught Jordan Addison at the 27 yd line for a gain of four it's second and six and we pause for station identification it's Minnesota Vikings football you're listening to the radio home in the Minnesota Vikings and the Common Man program FM 100.3 kfxn Minneapolis St Paul The Fan Nick Mullins back to pass on second down throws it to the left incomplete at about the 42 yd line Justin Jefferson fell so now it's third and six from the Vikings 27 with Green Bay leading border battle 127 3310 yeah and that's that's that familiar middle of the field that Green Bay's struggled with mightily over the last couple of weeks Paul and and had JJ not fallen down that would have been that would have been a big game for the Viking Ed Ingram is just walking about on the sideline Blake brandelle is at Right Guard so it doesn't appear Ed is injured or maybe he is but brandell has been the Right Guard a fair amount of the second half third down Mullins out of the shotgun back to pass rose right caught Johnny M at the 35 turns it up on Eric Wilson and gains a first down to the 38 yd line catch of 11 yds for Johnny Mt yeah it you know it's going to be a lot there'll be a lot of questions after this game Paul for sure especially like you're talking about with Ed Ingram and and what exactly is going on with him and why did he not finish his football game first and 10 Mullins pass predictable back to pass but now he's going to run up the middle to the 40 to the 45 and he slides down at the 45 flag comes in late this will be unnecessary roughness on the Green Bay Packers and it will put the Vikings into Packers territory probably be Kingsley andar for jumping on from behind well it's a tough play for a defensive player when when when Mullin didn't go down until L personal foul unnecessary roughness Defense number 25 15 yards will be added to the end of the play automatic first down the 10th unnecessary roughness call by the clay Martin staff this year second most in the NFL and and it's a shame Paul because you you take a look at the backfield that Green Bay was forced to play with with kha Nixon got Cory Valentine Eric Stokes being put on IR uh Carrington Valentine the the rookie suspended Jer Alexander suspended Jer Alexander I mean you had opportunities in the you know take advantage of the secondary 3310 Green Bay Mullins on first down back to pass great drop sidearms one to the 40 yd line K make that Alexander Madison with the catch to the 36 for a gain of five second and five 4 and A2 minutes to go in the game each team uh the Vikings have three timeouts Green Bay has two but Green Bay leads by 23 Mullins has generated the only touchdown this game he's back to pass he's going to throw to Jefferson on a slant caught at the 31 near side coming left to right and he stopped at the 29 first down gain of seven yeah you know for Nick Mullins ball it's the it's the efficiency's been there it's just been the huge mistakes that took him out of starting a quarterback and you know tonight minus the throw where his arm was hit he's been pretty accurate Madison in the back field with Mullins out of the shotgun Green Bay rushes for Nick throws left to Addison incomplete at the 10 yd Line Jordan broke clear from Balentine but Mullins and Addison could not connect so four minutes to go in the game second and 10 from the Green Bay 29 each team is seven and8 and the Pittsburgh Steelers did the Minnesota Vikings and the Green Bay Packers a big solid today by going on the road and beating the Seattle Seahawks putting the Vikings in a position because they beat Green Bay earlier this year to win tonight and win next week at Detroit and make the playoffs but then we played the game and Green Bay time out out their second 30 second timeout I'm just absolutely blown away at that that that Ben Leever unfurled I mean Green Bay has 26 first downs and 19 of them have taken place on first or second down more on that later let's go to m thanks Pete scoreboard Central brought to you by US Bank the official Bank of the Minnesota Vikings Saints get a much needed win to keep their playoff hopes alive car with a couple touchdowns and the Saints beat the bucks 23-13 back to you Pier right on buddy well the Minnesota Vikings defense for whatever the reason bad field position turned over overs tired whatever they've allowed 87 points the last three games and 1,67 yards that includes tonight second and 10 for the Mullins Le Minnesota Vikings from the Green Bay 29 Packers Rush four Mullins throws right and it's caught at the 18 but Brandon Powell is out of bounds so it's third and 10 yeah Paul you you bring up the defense and I think the story defensively just the uncharacteristic big mistakes that they had made all throughout the game I mean it it it's dropping coverage and that's the thing it's not as if these were great throws made in tight spaces we were turning Green Bay receivers loose deep in our back end and and and it's it it's so uncharacteristic Minnesota two of eight on third down this is third and eight from the Green Bay 29 and Mullins goes back to pass he floats out to the right hits Tai Chandler to the 30 2520 first down Tai Chandler steams his way down to the 17 for a catch and run of 13 first down Vikings trailing 3310 well Tai Chandler having having a a decent night tonight four yard averaging four yards on the ground it's just you have to get away from your running game when you're when you're trailing by multiple scores for a vast majority of the game and you know once again he's got to work on that pass protection I think that's the one thing that's keeping Tai Chan from being in every down back Chandler Chandler to the right of Mullins out of the shotgun KJ Osborne in motion to the left first down Nick back to pass throws over the middle CAU Justin Jefferson at the 10 yd line with a catch of six yds second and four from the Green Bay 10 and for Justin five catches and 59 yards the only Vikings touchdown Johnny Mt replacing TJ hawis out for the year with with an ACL and a MCL so that'll be quite the hall for him from a rehabbing standpoint this off season second and four Minnesota from the Green Bay 10 Mullins back to pass fourman rushed back left to the end zone for JJ and incomplete excellent excellent grab by Jefferson but he was Thrust out of bounds by Ballentine and Owens and now it'll be third down that that was a nice job by Cory Valentine to just kind of drag JJ down after nice catch after he got behind him unbelievable catch but yeah he's awesome it it's you know the way the rules are now if a Defender can drag you out of bounds or pull you out of bounds where you can't get two feet in then the pass is ruled incomplete used to be a judgment called by the by the referees yeah but in that case he's clearly out of bounds three receivers right one to the left on third and four from the 10 fourman Rush Mullins End Zone Jefferson incomplete and no Flags no Flags he uh got tied up with um all of a sudden his arch rival Carrington Valentine a seventh round rookie from Kentucky A Valentine with good coverage looked like he held him a little bit but it was status quo so fourth and four from the Green Bay 10 with Green Bay leading 3310 and 303 to go in the contest yeah this is where you you got to if you're a wide receiver you got to dig deep right here you've been running up and down this field for the last 10 15 minutes so you got to find it Madison motions to the backfield Mullins out of the shotgun fourman Rush by Green Bay Mullins floats out to the right looking to the end zone he'll pass to the end zone and it's nearly intercepted or is it intercepted by kesan Nixon uh nope out of the end zone but Green Bay has turned the Minnesota Vikings over on Downs that's the second time the Vikings have gotten inside the red zone Zone led by Mullins only to be turn over uh turned over on Downs as they stream out of US Bank Stadium we had to break Green Bay leads 3310 256 to go on the KF Minnesota Vikings radio network driven by Polaris wish it's time for

absolutely gone the way of the Green Bay Packers they lead 3310 they'll improve to 8 and8 the Minnesota Vikings will drop to 7 and N the season finale is at Ford Field next Sunday at noon pregame on KF at 10: and the Vikings radio network at 11 and um some interesting developments on the Minnesota Vikings defense given uh they're completely out of it lsen has come in at safety joined by Jay Ward Brian asima also in the game so is Andrew boo Jr Andre Carter II undrafted from army and uh Jordan love is no longer a quarterback it's Shawn Clifford handing it to Patrick Taylor and he goes up the middle across the 15 to the 16 for a gain of six got about 40% of people it was packed in here and it was loud to start it's a border battle why wouldn't it be about 40% of those people are still in here and um you got Shan Clifford handing it to Patrick Taylor with louen trying to make a tackle who says we no longer have four pre-season games Peter yeah exactly that's what it feels like man well somebody just called a timeout and I don't know if that was us or not we did wow okay you got you got to get uh you got to get some scene and Ward reps on tape so you can properly analyze into the Lions game right right right right Sean Clifford you say all right there is a number eight playing in the building Clifford Taylor two timeout Sean Clifford in case you're wondering undrafted from Penn State 62 218 lbs Jordan love threw three touchdown passes this game and he did so for the third time in his career but tonight border battle 127 the first four touchdown game in the career of Jordan love three passing and one rushing and this is his 17th start it's scary cuz he was 24- 33 for 256 yards and you said three touchdowns at 125.30 doubt Clifford puts Ben Sims in motion and the hand off goes to Patrick Taylor following the blocking of Ben Sims and the Memphis product heads to the right side across the 25 to the 29 and a first down for Green Bay and a burst of 11 and we have a Timeout on the field Green Bay took one of those two timeouts by the way that have been taken I oh no okay no I don't think so my bad I was um yeah I I was looking at the uh the ribbon and it was wrong and that's my bad so the Vikings have no time Al left Green Bay as one 3310 Packers yeah not you know and and unfortunately the trend I mean this is ultimately losing this football game that means we will lost five of our last six so not yeah absolutely not heading in the direction you want to go and two and six at home right and I think that's that's even a bigger issue uh just what goes on at home and why we can't just play better at home Clifford Taylor CER II one I mean if it's going to be the fourth preseason game we might as well call it like we're doing a simoc cast on fox9 in KFA and at least get a giggle out of executive producer Chad Abbot who always loves when we do that in the preseason yeah well you got Louis seen out there now Paul and he he's been a huge Enigma um you know whether I don't know whether or not if he's 100% I mean Lord knows that was this gruesome of an injury as we've as I've ever seen um when out in London last year so hopefully you can get him back or at least count on him going into next year I mean that's going to be a big decision and Harrison Smith and so there's a lot lot going on in the secondary 2-minute warning 3310 Green Bay uh those still here here at US Bank Stadium you know if there there are a lot of people who listen to the broadcast uh while while being in the stadium and if you are still here then even though they're not in the game right now you know Harrison Smith is nearing the end of his career yeah you know and uh denil Hunter is unrestricted after this year so I mean this could be the final the final time you're seeing the likes of denil Hunter and Harrison Smith and a couple of greats in the history of Vikings ball and no question no question about that I mean Harrison Smith has has been amazing in in his career his longevity and just his athleticism and again the thing about Harrison is just his versatility as a safety I don't know if there's one more versatile safety out there Shan Clifford the pens former Penn State NY lion goes under Center Josiah duara who scored his first NFL touchdown here against the Minnesota Vikings a couple of years ago blocking for Patrick Taylor who scoots up the middle for a gain of three making it third and six and now we have a packer down and that um that really is the um the worst case situation for Green Bay is that I mean they absolutely annihilated the Minnesota Vikings tonight but Jaden Reed uh who's had some injury problems of late he left in the third quarter went back to the lock room didn't return Isaiah McDuffy got himself messed up a little bit and uh now they have another Packer down with 148 to go and appears to be their Center as you got Yash nman out there warming up yeah John runan yeah well no yeah Ran's working out with Clifford now right in front of the Packers bench so I believe that is their starting center Josh Meyers Who's down so they may put runion over at Center but nevertheless jiren Hall the Brigham Young University rookie uh he was on quite the mission this evening he went five of 10 for 67 yds passing threw a pick a hall ran two times for four yards the Minnesota Vikings minus one in the take give they had a couple of drives end with turnovers uh which totally plays into the Vikings have have had drives end 185% of the times this year with turnovers that's that's the first thing I think the glaring thing when you step back and and you you take a look at this season I mean yeah injuries are a part of it but before even the injury bug bit us the turnovers were an issue we had doubt you know seven in the first two games right and and we had going into this game we had seven the last two games mhm uh that's something that they absolutely have to figure out uh and and the thing about it is is we've we've kind of fixed the fumbling thing but uh as far as protecting the football throwing it uh you know that has that really hasn't been there so um a big point of emphasis for the off season I mean there's a lot there's a lot that need that is available a lot that goes on um I think lot of positions where there's going to be some competition 14 of the 15 games the Vikings have played so far have been onore game Sean Clifford back to pass he's going to throw deep caught by Bo Melton at the 35 yd line stopped by Andrew Booth the old gotta play with a 23-point lead that's that's embarrassing that's a 38 yard reception for Bo Melton the newest longest of his career the previous took place tonight 28 yds and um for Shawn Clifford undrafted from Penn State uh that is a completion that is also his longest completion in the regular season and his first National Football League completion one minute to go in the game and the Green Bay Packers enter Victory formation o Melton six catches 105 yds and a touchdown all right nearly 500 yd of offense for the Green Bay Packers tonight you know and and again another dropped coverage um either teams have kind of figured out what we're trying to do and found a way to take advantage of it or just an absolute lack of concentration by our defensive backfield happy New Year 3310 will be the final score David CP is our statistician and and CB key to the game positively for the Minnesota Vikings Johnny Mt four catches on seven targets 39 yards with a long of 14 and he caught the only touchdown of the game where the Green Bay Packers win
