Yet he makes them. Pro QB's have to do that. Throw their receivers open.
But they don't want Ponder to force the ball.

Maybe Musgrave is holding back on the kickass stuff so as to shock the Bears in Minneapolis two weeks from now. :lol:

I was just going to say the same thing. When you have a real QB who can throw into tight windows, you can move the ball which means first downs and points.

Yeah - We don't want to give it to Peterson because...well...we need to pass, right?

It's impossible to argue this team is better than its QB. Just like with TJ, the offense is dumbed down for a weak QB that cannot execute a professional through traffic pass to save his life.

Iamagine AD on a team with a real QB. Such a waste. I love him, but what a waste. Being on the same team as Ponder.

What is this "play-action" wizardry the announcer is speaking of?

Musgrave, you don't deserve to start relying on AD NOW.

LOL! Love the announcers saying what we all know - Vikes should be getting HUGE gainers down the field with AD producing like he has.
