Great step up and slip in the pocket but stupid to take off. Never was going to get the first there.

I'm sorry but Ponder was ridiculous in that decision to run.

Nice kick by Kluwe but isn't 58 yards within Walsh's range?

That call on Loadholt was wrong. I guarantee he has done that every snap of his career and they choose that play to call it.

#Lions DE Cliff Avril didn't return to that drive after injury on second play.

I was thinking that on a punt late in the first half as well.

I would have thought so, but it is still risky. In the end, they will regret it if down 3 late.

And he should have caught that pass. I've seen him drop a coupld lately that he should get.

Chris Kluwe must have been thinking about punting A LOT lately.

This is the best pocket awareness I've seen by Ponder all season. In terms of stepping up in the pocket.

Wth how our OL is protecting today, I'd rather punt.
