MINNESOTA'S TEAM WENT TO LAMBEAU FIELD

READY TO REVERSE THEIR CURRENT TREND

OF LOSING TO THE GREEN BAY PACKERS

BUT CAME UP SHORT ONCE AGAIN

THE VIKINGS HAD BEEN SPREADING A LOT OF TALK

ABOUT THE FAVRE-LESS PACKERS GOING DOWN

YET MONDAY NIGHT WHEN THE FINAL GUN SOUNDED

'TWAS THE VIKINGS WHO'D BEEN PUSHED AROUND

WHILE ADRIAN PETERSON AGAIN WAS A FORCE

THE PACKERS' DEFENSE KEPT HIM CONTAINED

AND THE PASSES FROM MINNESOTA'S YOUNG QUARTERBACK

MADE THE VIKES' AERIAL GAME LOOK PRETTY PLAIN

IT GETS NO EASIER THIS UPCOMING WEEK

AS AN ANGRY COLTS TEAM COMES TO THE DOME

AFTER GETTING MAULED BY THE CHICAGO BEARS

RUINING THE FIRST GAME IN THEIR NEW HOME

JARED ALLEN AND THE 'WILLIAMS WALL' WILL DETERMINE

HOW WELL THE VIKINGS DO IN THIS FOOTBALL GAME

FOR IF THEY DON'T BRING MORE PRESSURE THAN LAST WEEK

PEYTON MANNING WILL DRIVE THE DEFENSE INSANE

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

AS THE PACKERS STEPPED OUT ONTO LAMBEAU FIELD

FANS WONDERED JUST WHAT THE EVENING WOULD BRING

AS RODGERS PREPARED TO START HIS FIRST GAME

AFTER THREE LONG YEARS ON THE SECOND STRING

TO THE SURPRISE OF ALL BUT THE PACKERS

AND AFTER A SOMEWHAT ROCKY BEGINNING

GREEN BAY'S PASSING GAME WAS QUITE EFFICIENT

SUPPORTING AN EFFORT THAT LED TO THEIR WINNING

THE GREEN BAY PACKERS ARE FEELING GOOD

AFTER DEFEATING AN UNPLEASANT VIKINGS' TEAM

BUT THIS WEEK'S OPPONENT THE DETROIT LIONS

AREN'T AS POOR A GROUP AS THEY MAY SEEM

THE LIONS HAD A TOUGH TIME LAST SUNDAY

WHILE THE LIONS' DEFENSE WAS UNABLE TO GEL

ATLANTA WAS ABLE TO RUN ON THEM AT WILL

AND PASSED THE BALL EASILY AS WELL

WHILE THE LIONS ARE ALWAYS TOUGH TO BEAT

WHEN IN THE CONFINES OF THEIR OWN DOME

UNLESS THE PACKERS TRIP ON THEIR OWN FEET

THEY'LL BRING A TWO AND OH RECORD BACK HOME

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

THE LEGS OF ADRIAN PETERSON GIVE THE VIKES A CHANCE

BUT THE PASSING GAME WILL PROVE THEIR ACHILLES' HEEL

WHILE THE PIECES ARE IN PLACE FOR A PACKERS WIN

PROVIDED THEY CAN JUST CLOSE THE DEAL

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Minnesota Vikings lost to the Indianapolis Colts  15-18

The Green Bay Packers beat the Detroit Lions 48-25
