I'm wondering if AP has more carries to the right in that situation and they want it to be very detailed, but no. Not with Ponder right now.

Here's the biggest issue for Musgrave. He must adjust to what these guys can do, not what he wants to see. Work with what you have!

You just now figured that out? lol Peterson has never been known for being a good blocker. But since he such of beast of a runner, people overlook his blocking ability.

I'd hate to think the worst thing to happen to the greatest running back ever was being drafted by the Vikings

The bad int came from a left side roll out as well. Ponder isn't great but Musgrave isn't making his life any easier...

Ponder is probably rolling left because that is the side Kalil and Johnson are on. He probably believes the blocking will be better on that side.
