Ponder shouldn't have even thrown a pass yet

The counterpoint to Wisconsin being poo poo is Minnesota is pretty much identical even though no one believes it.

Actually the people in Minnesota aren't quite constantly drunk so no they're not identical.

He might be the best #3 QB in the league though!

Why did the Vikings start Ponder for so many games again?

He was actually serviceable in 2012. And then he got hurt in the last game and we got the Joe Webb experience.

Nah, but they'll look like it when they're starting their #3 QB.

Crazy Ted: Jul 29, 2003

The really loving weird thing about Ponder is that every once in a while he'll throw a great-looking deep ball, even if it doesn't have a lot of velocity behind it, and he ends up so shocked by what he just did that won't attempt another one for the rest of the game.

Then he'll miss ten 5-yd passes in a row and then admit that he could've done a better job and won't wind up improving because this team is the definition of constant failure and disappointment and we're all totally used to it.

I'm not sure who's worse: incredibly pessimistic fans or incredibly smug fans.

worst sportscaster in football as a whole is beyond a shadow of a doubt Matt loving Millen

It is the Vikings' Paul Allen. He is such a whiny shitlord that he once threw his headset after a Seahawks TD in a game there about ten years ago. He is awful.

The vikings offense is seriously crippled if they can't score vs the packers defense

Well they're on their #3 QB and a 1/2 running back combo that features an undrafted fourth-year guy and a rookie who was a QB in college.

Announcers: "Josh Robinson, turned, didn't touch the receiver"

Replay shows Robinson with a handful of receiver's jersey just before the guy eats dirt.

Riiiiiiight.

He grabbed his jersey, but the WR did lose his footing. The two weren't related, but you probably could have called Defensive Holding on the play.

Well this game pretty much has taken a giant poo poo after that second touchdown.

who it was going to before that is a mystery.

It was going to Patterson, but Patterson slipped.

And the defense really hasn't been that bad for the last quarter.

To be fair if you're one of those retards that is actually happier when the rival team loses than when yours wins you're pretty much human trash.

I think all CBS shows are either #1 or close to it, (old) people have awful taste.

On the flip side, I think NBC is somehow #12 in the ratings.

Yeah but what if you're one of those people who is twice as happy when your team kicks the poo poo out of a hated rival rather than some other team?

Well then that's okay. But really, this game was going to happen once Teddy Bridgewater was ruled out.

Thursday night games are poo poo. The visiting team is on their #3 QB. This was never not going to be a blowout.

They do, but the coach can't really say "gently caress Christian Ponder" on the air.

He could say "If it wasn't for my quarterback this game would be 14-0" and split the difference.

"Its not his fault"

Yeah. I loved how in the CBS Halftime Show they excused Ponder's performance as being down to a high amount of pressure from the Packers' defensive line.

Easily the most inexplicable pick of Rick Spielman's tenure. I will never figure out what they saw there.

It's amazing considering how good Spielman has been with the draft otherwise.

Yeah, objectively, he's been great. He must have just panicked, or maybe he deferred to Musgrave, who must have some sort of head injury.

Well it's because everyone imagines that you absolutely need to pick quarterbacks in the first round when you think you need a QB for the future, and it's loving dumb.

I remember when Matthew Stafford was drafted, and the ESPN guys weren't saying he was the best player to pick #1, but he'd be the SEXY PICK YOU WANT THE SEXY PICK

Quarterbacking 35 points up. Driving 35 beers in. Wisconsin don't quit.

Then you get pulled for a DUI and you blow a .39 but since it's Wisconsin you get a $100 fine and you have to pinky swear to never do that again.
