the official **** the vikings thread

Well you Vikings fans can't be liking this. The last two picks have been Ponder apparantly not being able to see the defense & resulted in EASY interceptions, including the Pick-6 just now

Meh, we were facing the best team in the league in the toughest building in the league to play in. That certainly wasn't any kind of tipping point for the season.

It was actually relatively close at halftime, before the wheels completely came off in the second half. It was also funny to see Ponder and Wright expose Sherman on that one play.

if Houston picks 3rd

and the 1st and 2nd picks go with QB's

im pretty sure we will take the Best Def player off the board OLB or clowney or something

haha damn that was a crazy game

What a great game, AP is a warrior.

Thom Yorke · 12-02-2013, 10:36 AM

I think Ellison wants to get cut or something, Jesus Christ...

Cassel is a better option than Ponder. He was actually making Jennings and Simpson look useful.

Can't say enough about AP.

i didnt know we almost cut audi cole, he looks capable.

I hear clammers to get rid of cook after that incident but i still want him back next year.

Why weren't we letting rhodes stick to a man earlier in the season? He took on brandon marshall and closed him down

Cassel actually has pocket presence and throws the ball where receivers are going, as opposed to ponder who waits for them to stop and literally have their hands set ready to catch. Cassell had a lot of balls deflected though, seems to really only have one throwing motion and that is the straight ahead dart.

It looked like the Cook thing was nothing to me. He barely touched the ref. What am I missing here?

Rhodes is one of the lone bright spots this year. He's had quite a few rookie mistakes but has actually looked dominant at times.

I can't believe Houston and Atlanta might get the top 2 picks. Pisses me off to see teams tank like that. Both are teams that can turn it around immediately next season.

Sparky · 12-02-2013, 05:15 PM

right?

I haven't been paying attention to ATL so what is there problem? I get the lack of qb in texas but atlanta doesn't make sense.
