Packers @ Vikings Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 8

Why the infatuation with him? I still stand by Cassel being our best chance. He's gotten our only win and had the
best play in a game of any QB. Why did we just throw him away?

Cause the FRazier would be wrong about him.

[Raptorman]

Ponder, you are a useless tackling dummy.

Blame Fusco. They had 3rd and 2 that went to 2nd and 18 on the hold.

[PurpleKoolaid]

... and there it is. GB tops 30 at the 6:50 mark in the 3rd quarter... after holding the ball for the whole quarter up to that point.

This defense isn't even giving the offense a chance.

The 3 and outs aernt helping either, with your boy in there leading the way this time.

Yeah, cassel got jobbed with this whole mess IMO. He's the only one of the 3 who's resembled an NFL QB for us. Should have started last week and would have given us a shot to win.

Now that made me LOL, thanks That Guy

I'm not "that guy" I'm "Just Me". (Glad you got to chuckle though, even if only for a brief moment - Man this team is terrible)

[Webbfann]

Three and out (again)

Its the defenses fault. We just haven't had time to get Ponder in his sweet spot.

the gut that sacked CP also hit the OL's helmet,

[Raptorman]

Thats' what, 3 penalties on Fusco so far this game

They're clearly getting outplayed but it's more than that. The announcers have said it multiple times, you can't rush four and sit in a shell and expect magic.

You can when you have Dline that doesn't run themselves out of plays repeatedly. And interior dline that doesn't get stood up regularly. And all of our corners and safeties are special team level talent. Greenway is done. Mitchel is a bum. Erin is above average at best, more likely just average...

[Laserman]

Frasier, if you don't put cassel in now You are stupid. If you actually think Ponder gives you the best chance to win, there is nobody who can help you

[Purple Domination]

Well I guess benching Ponder didn't light a fire under him. Same old sub par play.

[Canuck]

Yeah here comes another 9 min drive to a td, they should just let them run it and and give ap the ball the rest of the game over and over it may be 97-17 but ap will get some stats

[mondry]

Are you watching this? It's NOT the scheme. These guys are getting outplayed.

I'm watching this and it looks like they're abusing our scheme pretty hard. Push our ends up the field, let rodgers run it if nothings down the field. 3rd and 3? Run the same 3 yard come back cause we'll NEVER jump that route in this "sit back and tackle" scheme. Rodgers is playing this scheme like a fiddle. The players are in the right spots, they're doing their jobs pretty well from what I can tell. This defense relies on the other team making mistakes and they just aren't.

[Lash Man]

My guess is he must have questioned the play calling and that was the end of his career in Minnesota .

[radar55]

Not even worth watching with that piece of TRASH playing quarterback.

Im not defending Ponder but did you watch the game last week. Do you really want the "wild thing" in there?
