Focus on slowing down AP and we win! Make the kid try to beat us by forcing passes, I like our chances.

That's because in the world of bad teams, the Vikings are not as bad as the Rams. Plus they get 3 points for being at home. So figure 11.5.8.5 on the spread? I was thinking they would be 14 point favorites again. Last week they were 17 on the spread, can't remember last time I seen that before.
I agree with this take. Although I think the Vikings are doing this just to see what they have in Ponder....they are already looking at next years draft.
Furthermore you should never bow down to the fans...like the Packer fanbase who wanted TT and McCarthy fired and booed Rodgers in traning camp. Now they leap to their defense at the slightest attack. Packers orginzation did it right not listening to the fickle fanbase.
But, with Mcnabb they are 1-5, they cant really do any worse with him so why not try something different.
Its obviously not working out with Mcnabb
I wonder how Ponders Gastoral Intesinal system is functioning this week
I have been watching some of Ponders film from college, he very seldom ever under throws his WR's. He will overthrow them more than under throw them. So if the Packer get a couple of interceptions, I expect them to be overthrown balls. He also seems to float his real long balls more than they should be. His accuracy seems to be good.
Exactly. Think of it from the Vikings point of view. McNabb, or whatever the hell they are trying to do is not working. What have they to lose, aside from a potential franchise QB if he gets smashed in the process. They kind of need to start to focus on '12 at this point, with Ponder, I don't like to think it, but I have to wonder if they might be able to make some noise next year. I have a feeling Ponder is going to be good, unless of course in true Vikings ill luck, he runs a fowl of a certain Green Bay defense.
