" Welcome to the weekend preview brought you mother Verizon football's -- available on vcast only Verizon Wireless mobile device rise of football zone for all your wireless football needs. Brian overjoyed by the former pro quarterback Erik Kramer EJ it's all weekend and a lot of football and ice floating around my pumpkin or pumpkin time by the whenever coordinator next week maybe a -- ideal world though not necessarily has for the playoff run you gotta love this series -- let's start with a marquee match up in Green Day. Vikings -- the Packers at Lambeau Field. -- had you think Brett Favre will deal the emotions going back to green that."

" I think it's gonna be a great situation for him obviously he wants to do well in Green Bay. But you know just the whole atmosphere there is going to be electric in I think Brett done a fantastic job this year. A deal with that and he knows he's got a great team he knows he's got to do things. This can this -- he's thrown twelve touchdowns what three interceptions this year hasn't given a game away yet -- is relying on a lot of -- components around him. And really has made a lot of people including Sidney Rice a lot better this year. Favre threw the ball over fifty times last week in Pittsburgh you think the Vikings have to get Adrian Peterson more involved this week yes there's no doubt and I don't know why they didn't stick with that more because they've got. The kind of offensive line they can do that what happened to a last week was Casey Hampton in the middle of that 34 defense. Really prohibit those guards from getting up on the inside linebackers which is the key to play that defense I don't think the Green Bay has that kind of front. Seven to do that they're actively keep the Vikings -- Adrian Peterson more packers' offensive line's been shaky but Aaron Rodgers not act last week albeit against Cleveland Browns yeah count them as a pro football team that he -- Rodgers will do against the Vikings still -- well you know what's up last week did you have was. If you neutralize Jerry Allen. There's not a lot of push anywhere else the run stopping tandem of the Williams Brothers inside. Are just that they don't get a lot of push him -- the inside -- pass you don't have a lot of pressure telephone the other side. And I'm. You know I don't understand why they didn't bring more blitzes. From the linebackers but they were content to let Roethlisberger that back in the pocket and pick them apart I think they've got to get -- Aaron -- more this week okay let's move on to -- take on the Eagles in a divisional matchup Giants were undefeated to start the year of the laws back to back games. What -- issues and they seem like they got a lot of all of a sudden defensively I thought they were gonna go into the season as one of the best front sevens in the game they've had a ton of injuries in the secondary but the front seven really hasn't asserted himself the last couple weeks. Offensively he Eli Manning doesn't look the same as he did the first four weeks he looked confident then. All the receivers were stepping up making plays now Eli looks a little more. I think shelves are also still Sox the right word we just look quite as confident and now because of that. They don't have the downfield threat they have before they came in last game against the Cardinals ran the ball effectively for the first quarter and then got away from -- I think they have. An issue right now we've get them gotta get back to the basics they had to start the season. Brian Westbrook trying to come back from a concussion he's over on Monday night but the Eagles without a new dynamic playmaker into -- Jack -- it's great and you saw this happening over the course of last season and now. He can do at all he's got. That play making ability is in the return game they got him -- reverse last week and up and down the field as an offensive threat in the passing game he's got a knack. For making big plays and I think that's really. Been a comfort zone now for Donovan as he starts to develop that chemistry -- him. They've got Brad -- at tight -- started do some good things if they can get Brian Westbrook and that running game going obviously he's he's banged up a little bit but they need somebody to step up in the running game in on the -- little bit better TF questions about -- Eagles offensive front because seems like Donovan McNabb isn't facing a lot of pressure this year absolutely he got sacked five or six times against the Raiders he got banged up last week. There's no doubt in my mind that he has to be protected he's not the Donovan of old he doesn't wanna get out. In run around and make plays with a -- all the time he's a very precise a lot more precise passer than he's been in the past and I think you have -- play that they've got a short something's up. Whether it should put the up with the out wind out of the running backs getting out of reporting get out of the pass throughout the holding the tight -- they've got to do something even if it means. Getting him back rolling him out in a designed rollout to get the ball down the field."
