The more I watch these pre season games, the more I realize that were really REACHED on Ponder @ #12. We have 3rd and 5th rounders out playing him by a wide margin. He is being out played by this year's rookies as well. I know he get's the Homer vote because he is our QB but....Would you rate him higher than Wilson or Folkes at this point. That INT was brutal. Several of the sacks he took last night, he failed to locate his check down back who was wide open.

Having Peterson won't keep him from missing reads and throwing horrible INTs.Quote:

So dont put wrapping and a bow on how this is the Vikings will be. Yet.
I am sitting here right now watching the Saints/Texans game. 2 Favorites to go all the way. Turnovers everywhere. Touchdowns in a fury. This game of football is the best live reality show/ drama on the TV. You never know which way the football will bounce. I am crossing my fingers that there will be many favorable bounces for the Vikings this year.
So one INT is the preseason is judging a QB now? That is laughable.Quote:
