Joe Buck, Troy Aikman…and Cris Collinsworth (final Fox season) Pam Oliver was the sideline reporter on Fox then (with Burkhardt-Olsen now) Erin Andrews first big assignment in 2004 was the Stanley Cup for ESPN/ABC. 17 years ago.
Farve and Cullpepper used to have some straight shootouts back in the day. The Packers also beat Minnesota by a field goal in Green Bay that year. And I think the score was also 34 to 31. The Vikings had the last laugh in the playoffs though.
I remember this game was on Christmas Eve at my Aunts house watching Packers beat Vikings. Unfortunately a couple weeks later I was on a cruise ship that didn’t have a deal with FOX so couldn’t watch wildcard game. I can’t believe how many Packers fans were on that cruise and got captain to find a signal or something to get it on TV. We were all in main lounge around the TV waiting for a signal and it finally came just in time to see Randy Moss catch his famous TD in which he mooned the crowd. I left, I didn’t want to see no more than that. How do you beat a team twice 34-31 only to lose 31-17. Idk?
@@Yono84 eh, it’s debatable but I agree in a sense. Culpeppers #1 target in 2004 for the most part was Burleson because Miss was injured almost half the year, and put up career highs. Regardless, I somewhat agree.
@@givemetwentybucks Moss was hurt for 5 games. Lions Colts Packers Jags Detriot Worst 5 teams on defense that season. Culpepper success without Moss that season was a mirage. Moss was on pace for 25 TDs that season before he got hurt. The vikings were 5-1 before his injury and finished 8-8. Culpepper was horrible in 2005 before his injury.
Say what you want about Joe Buck now but his quality of commentating had increased so much since then. *straight face* "The kick... Is good. And the Green Bay Packers win the division for the 3rd year in a row." He sounds way more interested these days
I heard (maybe Buck said it himself) that he used to try to call games in an understated tone like Pat Summerall. Worked for Pat, absolutely did not work for Joe.
Yeah I really don’t know how people don’t see any difference between his level of emotion in this era compared to nowadays. I mean if you don’t like him, that’s fine, there’s certain broadcasters’ styles who I don’t care for either, but people are using the same jokes and memes they were using about his commentary from over 15 years ago, when it’s obvious that his style has evolved greatly since that time.
@@tommyl.dayandtherunaways820 it basically became a meme and Buck played it up with his dry sense of humor (such as the funny or die video in NYC) eventually causing him to become more endearing and the “Joe Buck sucks” thing basically became a meme. But you’re right he started out trying to imitate Pat Summerall (Mitchell, Mitchell) but eventually evolved into acting more like his natural self, so much so they these days I’m not sure there’s a more candid booth in the league than Joe and Troy
@@tommyl.dayandtherunaways820 He sucks now as bad as he did then. He has been a running meme for this entire time. And we will keep them going till the putz is gone.
Jimmy Graham ruined it by abusing that celebration (did it on almost every TD no matter where in the end zone he caught it) and eventually he broke the goalposts causing it to be banned
Teams that go into the playoffs with a .500 or worse record have done surprisingly well for themselves once they get there. Despite being swept by Green Bay in the regular season and only going 8-8, the Vikes would go on to win the threematch in Lambeau. Seattle knocked off the defending champs, the Saints, in 2010, after going 7-9. Carolina defeated the (to be fair, essentially quarterbackless) Cardinals in 2014 after going 7-9.
Vikings literally won the wildcard against them, just another proof that no matter how much you beat a team, it only matters in the playoffs. Sigh…… 2001 to 2006 were disappointing years for us packers fans
@@threatassessment606 you try making the playoffs almost every from 1995 and winning a grand total of 2 Super Bowls… way stressful than being a Vikings or lions fan since their hope is pretty much always low while ours is high and to watch get crushed in the same fricking game is frustrating
It’s so irritating how many times the Packers underachieved with Rodgers and Farve. 95: They’re the hottest team in the NFL, they clobber SF in the Divisional Round and have the chance to upset Dallas. Until after leading into the 4th Quarter, Favre pulls a Favre and chokes it away. 97: 13-3 and Super Bowl Champions. Repeat as NFC Champions are matchup against the Wild Card Broncos. Green Bay doesn’t play their best game, don’t use Dorsey Levens enough and lose a game they should have won. Even Reggie White went on and said they didn’t play their best that game. Were to overconfident. 01: Holmgren is gone, but a lot of the talent is still there, especially on defense. Defense played great in the playoffs. Problem was Farve looked like a deer in the headlights and turned it over 6 times. Defense was keeping St. Louis under control but all the picks just made it to far to overcome. 02: The team is bit by the injury bug but Farve is playing his best ball since 98. Has the chance to clinch the #1 seed but loses to the Jets. Drops to the 3 seed vs Atlanta. Mike Sherman rests multiple defensive starters and Mike Vick runs all over a second string defense. 03: 4th and 26 07: Favre is playing well in a cold, hard fought game. If he wins this, he gets back to the Super Bowl for the first time in 10 years. He could pull the upset in the Super Bowl and ride off into the sunset. And then Favre pulls a Favre and losses in heartbreaking fashion. 11: Now with Aaron Rodgers, they win the Super Bowl and are 15-1. They look like the class of the NFL. So they rest their starters the second half vs the Bears and then the last game vs the Lions. They then have a bye week and look rusty in their Divisional Game vs the Giants. Defense can’t stop the deep ball thanks to the loss of Nick Collins to his career ending injury. Packers being rusty ruins their chance of going back to back. 12-13: Underachieving defense and Kaepernick=Green Bay playoff loss. 14: Don’t wanna talk about this one. 15: Loss of Jordy Nelson exposed McCarthy’s offense and Green Bay only wins 4 more games after going 6-0. After Rodgers carrying the team into the playoffs, he carries them in the playoffs into overtime vs Arizona. Then that bad defense shows up again. 16: A cheap shot on Jordy Nelson takes him out vs the Giants and by the Championship, the team is gassed. Without Adams and Nelson, the offense couldn’t do much. 19: Rodgers doesn’t show up vs San Francisco and looks incredibly poor. Probably right there with the 2010 NFC Championship as one of his worst playoff games. 20: Defense is getting turnovers but Rodgers isn’t capitalizing. Has a 3rd down at the goal line with a chance to take the lead. Has a wide open lane to the end zone. Doesn’t run and instead dumps it for a minuscule gain. That was the moment to say “I’m Aaron Rodgers and this is my house.” Could have John Elwayed into the end zone but he played conservative. Feel this loss is all on Rodgers. Let’s hope this year goes better.
I remember this game. When favre threw the 4th quarter pick I was rooting for the Vikings to score so GB would have more time to work with. RIP Vikings fans 😢 never have anything to root for
Yeah he was still a bit wild at times, tbh that was the Vikings MO with Moss; just get a qb with the strongest possible arm, Randall Cunningham, Jeff George, and then they drafted Daunte Culpepper.
Well my weekend just got a lot better. Thanks buddy. Great shootout in the Metrodome, and it's always great to see one Randall MAWSE at his peak, even though he had one catch in this game. We'll go ahead and ignore the fact that both the Packers and Vikings defenses this season were terri-bad in 2004 :D
@@jerrys.3317 Al and Cris could barely control their own laughter, it was such a bizarre and hilarious scene. One of the few positive memories I have of the 2017 season.
Check out the Favre interception in slow motion. He’s throwing it as hard as he can to nobody. He did the scramble reset and let it rip to literally nobody lmao
17:46 Driver on the ground for about two full seconds and dude just come in with a WWE elbow drop and it all good. He’s on the ground the play is over being tackled by two other guys and out of nowhere a backwards spinning flying shoulder/elbow. Gotta make sure that, even though he’s down and it’s over, he doesn’t get even another centimeter
My god, if MN had an offensive line like that these days, we'd be unstoppable... Also, it's so weird watching a Vikings team with an actual playbook! Instead of running the same half dozen plays over and over again like they do now.
That’s Kirk cousins for you. Does Kirk ever score over 30? Rarely 40? Never. Kirk isn’t built for high scoring games despite having an elite list of wrs.
Was at this game with my Dad (GO PACK GO). Was a lot of fun. Best part about this game is when the Vikes took the lead in the 4th quarter and we were getting all sorts of crap from the Viking fans there, and we were obviously out numbered. I will admit the Packers had a hill to climb so I understand why the Viking fans were so confident. But looking back, since we came back and won, it was fun to get all that crap just to watch them leave as the losers! When Packers got in FG range at the end and it was all but certain the Pack was going to win..... it was fun to watch MANY MANY of the Vike fans leave before the kick even happened. They just started leaving LOL. When the VIkes went up in the 4th... one Vike fan was giving my dad so much crap. Not swearing or anything...he thought he was being "friendly" in his crap giving... but he just wasnt letting up. I think he finally realized he was giving him too much crap when he said sorry to my dad and no matter what happens we will shake hands at the end. He said that when the Vikes went up in the 4th thinking his team was going to win. Guy was sooooo gone and no where to be found when it Packers got the edge about to kick the game winning FG! No hand shake for me dad LOL. Was a lot of fun.
A few observations... 1, Culpepper would have been the MVP that year if Peyton hadn't thrown for 49 TDs. 2, Joe Buck was absolutely dreadful, just no life in his voice. 3, I forgot how much I could not stand Mike Tice
Yes, I know that Minnesota would go on to upset gb in the following week. That being said, the Mike tice vikings are one of the most INFURIATING and PATHETIC regimes in recent memory! Sooooooo much Talent, and Opportunities for success, wasted! In this particular game, they were blessed with a 4th quarter pick six at home, to take the division crown, and redeem themselves for allowing gb to steal it from them, off the back of their UGLY collapse, after starting the year 6-0 the prior season. Yet, like clockwork in the Tice era, Minnesota always sculpted a method for inexplicable FAILURE...
Look at it. It's beautiful. Not 1 jersey untucked. Socks all the same length and colors, position specific numbers. Everyone looks professional. Not like today. The majority of players today just look sloppy. The NFL needs to go back to these uniform standards.

2004 was one of the greatest regular seasons ever, so many great games.
And the playoffs as well the best team of the decade the 04 pats they beat the colts the Steelers and the t.o. and the eagles
This is one of the most underrated regular season games in Packers history. It’s too bad they got beat in the wild card round a couple weeks later.
That playoff game was the Randy Moss "Mooning" Game and according to Joe Buck " a disgusting act by Randy Moss"
Who’s they get beat by? I forget
Gary Coleman should have caught that
Never too bad when the fappers lose. Always a celebration.
