The Good: BO MELTON!
The Bad: Samari Toure punt muff AND going out of bounds while trying to bleed the clock.
The Ugly: The previous games’ Barry defenses.

Good: OL - Let's leave MLF off at least until he beats the Bears. How quickly everyone forgets what happened after beating the Lions and Chiefs! The Bear game could be the expected letdown that MLF has been known for.
Bad: Toure
Ugly: Shirtless Cousins

Ugly: Shirtless Cousins! Agreed! I thought the shirtless kid with him was his date for the game, until I found out it was his son. Creepy as hell!

Good: about everything the pack did expect pass the ball to dobbs.
Ugly: Watching a fine Vike defense fold like an accordion.
Bad: Some more injuries to the same old same old again

Why in the fuck would they pass the ball to a backup QB for the vikings?

MLF played the vikings D like a fiddle. MLF's game plan was well thought out and was ready for anything Flores' defense could muster for the Packers Offense. Good job, MLF!!! Rubechat called. They want you to come home, Fubared.

The Best is that the younger players have stepped up on offense. The strides taken by the WR's and TE's are nothing short of amazing. Also, Love doesn't have a favorite. If you're open, you get the ball thrown your way. No more "earning trust" or "learning how to read what the QB wants".

"The Best is that the younger players have stepped up on offense."
The fact is, if AR12 had still been the QB in Green Bay, those same younger players who have stepped up would have been mostly invisible. Mostly because, like you mention, they "have not earned trust", or they "have not learnt to understand what the QB wants".
Now if you're open, the ball could come your way. Makes it much more meaningful and fun for the newbies.

And that's how you really develop.

Like Doubs and Watson in 2022?

Plus, we'd have a couple less young receivers on the team, so Cobb and lazard could have a roster spot..

Excellent: Jayden Reed (played under strong pain in his chest!)
Good: Jordan Love, Bo Melton, OL
Bad: asking cold player (Samuri Toure) to field the punt
Ugly: everything about Vikings (from horn over public to Captain Kirk!)

There is nothing wrong with asking an inexperienced Toure to field a punt. The Packers were ahead 30 to 3 in the 4th and had handled the Vikings the whole game. This was a good opportunity for Toure to get some experience in case he is needed to return punts in the future.

He's been sent to the P squad. Next stop, waivers.

I wrote COLD player - player from the bench - not unexperienced one!

Captain Kirk the character was from Iowa. The actor who played him, William Shatner, was Canadian.

Captain Kark, the shirtless one, was a Spartan, in a former life.

Good: MLFs game plan on beating the "mighty" vikings D. Everything was clicking on the Packers' Offense, all game long. Jordan Love was masterful. Our OL blocked for Love all game long and opened holes for Jones, Dillon and Taylor, all game long. We played the game with a depleted WR corps and the WRs and TEs who did play, played very well. Our D allowed only 10 points! Solid job by our DBs, especially! Nagler's comments on the vikings have to be amplified for every viking fan to hear. Another viking drubbing, by the Packers, late in the season! Grape Crush time!
Bad: Yeah, Toure muffed a punt and the turnover resulted in 7 points for the vikings. Carlson missed a PAT kick, again! Injuries.
Ugly: vikings players throwing punches at the Packers players. I saw two punches thrown, during the game, and one thrown after the game, when Booth took a swing and hit Aaron Jones. Sore loser franchise who are now almost eliminated from the post season. Another year of never winning anything and they are not done losing! Go Lions!
