The offense looks regular season-fluid tonight.

Defense doesn't get much of a look versus this rookie, but oh well.

He's been good. See how long it'll last.


Do we have a qb controversy brewing? :)

Wild Bill wrote:It seems we are using some strange alignments for LBs . 2 over center whole { I hear Zimmer has a big history of that} Then once no one in the middle. When they put 2 in the middle I think the other has his hand down as a pass rusher. Any insights info ?
That's zimmers MO, he likes to put two LBs in the A-gap. Sometimes he'll put all 11 on the line.

Although, he got Samantha pregnant, so that's pretty damn good action.
6/8 for 59 yds, 1 TD, 1 INT... looks like a typical Ponder box score. :lol:

Don't we play the Raiders next? I bet Ponder is excited.

I don't think Patterson has been in the game since his penalty.
