Zimmer and Norv must be thinking, holy jesus what the hell did we get ourselves into.
If they didn't know...well that explains the number of jobs Norv has had, and the number of interviews Zimmer has had.
He needs to be released. I don't even want him to be one of our "options" in emergency situations.
WORLD's GREATEST #3 QB!

It was on 30 and he was blocking down field before the pass, actually offensive PI, but he also grabbed the jersey.

What is it about prime time and Vikings quarterbacks going utterly belly-up? Ponder is threatening to make the Josh Freeman Show look good.

Yes, we are all aware that they probably could call holding on every single play - they just aren't going to call it unless there is a blatant takedown.

Great pass Ponder. Wide open and you throw it behind him. Guess that one is the Oline's fault

Mothman wrote:What's getting lost in another non-stop #### fest about Christian Ponder is that for the third time this season, the offensive line is playing poorly. They are playing as poorly tonight as they played well on Sunday. Poor blitz pick-up, ineffective run-blocking, inadequate pass protection... if we don't see a string of seriously good, consistent performances from the line before this season is over, I think Zimmer, Spielman and company need to seriously consider dismantling that line and rebuilding a significant portion of it.
I'm going to say the same thing about Turner's game plan tonight too. He did a great job last week, setting Bridgewater up with an ideal game plan for a rookie making his first start. Tonight, Green Bay obviously studied film of Sunday's game, decided to take away the quick-hitting stuff that worked for Bridgewater and Norv doesn't seem to have a Plan B, or any idea how to get the ball to his playmakers. Where's the spread he used last week? Where's Patterson? Jennings? Did he think they were going to beat GB with Asiata and Ellison and keep Ponder in a clean pocket all night?
Norval has had to dumb down the game plan, just as Musgrave had to.

Jennings needs to catch that, but what a #### pass

Ponder alone is not the problem ....the folks playing in front of him are giving him up to the opponent...I see a deeper problem ...and it is not something I can talk about in this forum...but it is a problem that the whole nation faces and I say fire all the M F ers and forget about em

At least Jennings' kids can get the good education in MN, they better learn to love it here because any other state they move to will result in being laughed at

That one incomplete pass was almost pretty, not very close but oh so pretty.

it's like working for the post office and not knowing they don't deliver on Sundays
Just because he called a wrong number? It was probably Kuhn #30 and he just didn't see the 0. Pretty tough crowd.
