I guess I wonder what they do with Ponder then? Freeman is decent, TB coach is a fucking psycho and they didn't get along. If this is just a one year rental to get to draft a QB that's fine I suppose but Josh is only 25 (26 maybe?) so are you better off with any of the QBs in the draft? So do they try to shop Ponder, and if so does he have any value? Vikings reached hard when they drafted him in the first place and Frasier seemed like the only person on earth behind this guy but I'd hope they want to get something back on him cause honestly he's not the answer. Hell the team played better with Matt then Ponder who has been there since day one. I don't know the Vikings cap situation and I worry that even if he comes in and does well they won't be able to afford him longterm anyway. Maybe they got cap, but I'd assume with AP, JA and the rest of the D-Line they don't have much left to pay FA big buck.

Maybe they're over Ponder?
Kind seems like it, doesn't it?

Probably not.
Maybe a 4-5?

He can't be any worse than TJ Yates.

He can't be any worse than TJ Yates. I think Yates has the potential to be a decent quarterback in the right situation...this just isn't it.

The Freeman Era begins (and possibly ends) this week against the Giants on MNF. The two worst defenses will clash on MNF. Cant wait to get beat by the 0-6 Giants lol. As rough as our QBs have been, I think we need to get rid of Bill Musgrave. He's a terrible play caller who has no idea how to use the Pro Bowl MVP Kyle Rudolph or Cordarrelle Patterson (who we traded a ton to pick up). Oh and AP got ten... count it TEN rushes last week. I was at that game and man was it bad. Our defense blows a fat one and our play calling is equally as bad. Also how the hell does Joe Webb have more targets and catches then Cordarrelle Patterson EVERY week?! That's embarrassing.

As bad as the Vikings have been, I don't think it compares to the Giants. They have no rush attack, no pass rush and Manning is literally throwing them out of every game with his turnovers. Freeman doesn't have to be amazing on Monday...he just has to outlast Eli in the contest of which QB is going to meltdown first for the Vikings to win.

Worlds biggest Giants hater right here, Im a Cowboys fan in New Jersey, but as shitty as Eli has played its tough to put so much blame on him. The run game has been non existent and the line is atrocious. WHile he is definitely having the worst stretch of games hes had probably ever, Eli is not nearly problem number 1 on the Giants right now. I would say its: 1 No offensive line 2 No pass rush 3 No run game 4 Eli 5 No one buying in anymore

But at the same time, Eli is a gunslinger with no memory or conscience...he will throw 4 INT and strut right back out there and fire that next one and hope for the best...better game managers don't do that. When he is hot, it works out for him, but a cold Eli will put the Giants behind the 8 ball faster than anything.

This is one of the worst Viking teams in years, and honestly I feel alot of their wins last season were coin tosses that they easily could have and should have lost. They almost let the pathetic Steelers come back from a 17 point deficit and are probably as bad as the Giants just haven't had the injuries that they've had. There is no future for the Vikings til they ditch Musgrave and the whole coaching staff. You give the talent they have to a REAL head coach and there is no way they'd be so far under 500 like Frazier is. I expect a train wreck of a game and somehow the Giants get their 1st win due to Eli going 4th Quarter Eli on the hapless Viking D

Where's the confidence in my post? The only thing I'm confident about I the Vikings suckin ass. We have a very potent offense but we dont have any sort of decent coordinator or QB to make it go. It's too bad, they are wasting APs valuable time lol.
I agree with quite a bit of what you said btw.

This is what I said earlier in the season...Peterson is wasting the prime of his career...he should find his way to Carolina.

Maybe he catch a break but he's 0-4 with 47.7 passer rating. Can't get anymore suck ass than that.
