Packers 31, Vikings 3

What a disaster this season has become for the Vikings.  The Packers completely dismantled them today, 31-3 at the Metrodome no less.  That drops the Vikings to 3-7 on the season, they've lost 4 of their last 5, they've got 6 more games to go, best case scenario is 9-7, I'm not sure if even that would qualify them for a Wildcard spot, it's not going to happen anyways, not the way they're playing.  Other observations?  1) Brad Childress has lost the team, he is obviously not well liked, his players aren't playing hard for him.  I would not be shocked if he is fired soon and Leslie Frazier takes over for next weeks game against the Redskins.  Seems to me that they've under performed for him since he got the job so I would not be opposed to that move.  2) Brett Favre continues to look old, he was missing receivers all over the place.  It's certainly not only his fault, they are still really thin at WR and the OL has struggled all season.  It just may be time for him to take a seat so that they can further evaluate Tavaris Jackson and/or Joe Webb.  3)  They really, really miss Cedric Griffin at CB, Chris Cook and Asher Allen were toasted all afternoon by Aaron Rodgers and company.  4) Lots of sideline discord today, that's not a good sign.  5) It couldn't have been hard to see this coming, they made a deal with the devil to get Brett Favre in purple and it can clearly be seen that they are paying for it.  His lack of off season work with his teammates just set the completely wrong tone for this team.  They also became real old very quickly, they desperately need an infusion of youth.
