Ponder is so lucky he has AD and the D bailing his TERRIBLE #### out game game game. Wheres purple bruise to defend him?

Tom Pelissero ‏@TomPelissero

And there's Simpson not getting enough depth on his route and letting a high pass go through his hands on 3rd down. Walsh FG. 27-7 #Vikings.

Maybe throwing to a WR?

Ponder's throw was awful, but why did Simpson settle short of the first down

Whether he is over throwing, or under throwing he is indeed throwing to someone who can receive the ball and may be wide.

It's interesting to see the difference between Pelissero's reaction and the reactions here.

Nice half.

Maybe. What about his other throws? Those are the ones that worry me. I guess he can say he was just throwing it away...

Ponder should be least valuable player. Vikings would be 10-3 with a decent qb

The one to an open Wright was 20 yards in front of him. And the one when wright was WIDE open, the happy feet were already moving too fast to throw the ball. Same with the one to Jenkins in the endzone, 50 yards to high for him.

That's the one I've heard, don't remember from where though.
