Pretty frustrating
We really need Simpson to be healthy to open up the field.
Penalties and turnovers cost us.
Take the handcuffs off from Ponder. I love his drives at the end of games.
Frustrated, but it is football.
The most frustrating part is going to be all of the people online who are going to come in here with the sky is falling mentality.
We are 4-2 people, not 2-4. Keep that in mind. Just saying. Let's take care of Atlanta at home.
We had a rough time on D today. It looked like we were keeping our LBs up to keep RG in check and it cost us with a lot of passes in the middle of the field. Christian had a few passes that were way off target, but overall he has looked good. He did not give up. AD was a beast. Harvin was his usual self. Hated seeing the three 1st qtr drives stall in the red zone and take field goals. 2nd and 3rd quarters killed us. We never seemed to take control of this game.
I thought RG was way too cocky today. I really, really wanted to see someone clean his clock, but no one seemed to get a shot at it.
Next game is Arizona at home. But yes, they sky is falling. This coaching staff is terrible. 73 yard QB Draw for a TD? Does no one watch film? Does no one tell Adrian Peterson to quit with the jump cuts and actually gain yards on a run? Vanilla schedule and the only QBs with half a brain shred us. Oh, not to mention Adrian Peterson still doesn't know how to pass protect. If it wasn't for him there would have been no Ponder fumble. Can we please trade him so we aren't so one dimensional anymore?
Our redzone offense is garbage. Yes we have a 100% scoring rate but its mainly fgs. If we got two of the tds that we should have had its a different ball game.
Penalties. Its not surprise that in the two losses they commit alot of penalties.
Defense cant seem to cover the middle. The skins probably ran the same cross over the middle 8 or 9 times with success.
Walsh is going to set the single season record for field goals made plain and simple.
For the second and third quarter the vikes played like the vikes from last year, just frustrating pathetic football. Ill give them credit in the first and fourth they moved the ball real well until we hit the redzone.
Just a frustrating game to watch and I hate RGIII
It was just an off game for us. I did like seeing Ponder throwing deeper passes early in the game. About as deep as our rec corps will allow.Quote:

The one time we left him in on pass protect Ponder fumbles, and that was the huge momentum changer. If we have the best back in football why can't convert at least one of those 1st quarter field goals into touchdowns?Quote:

How will trading AD make us less one dimensional?
