Just take some knees, you dopes. It's over.

Padding the stats, alright. If Ponder starts 4 more games for us like this, The Wilfs should go down to the coaches with some Jersey headbusters and go play
baseball in the desert with every last of 'em in.

Even with the defense playing a high zone coverage it took Ponder 1 minute and 30 seconds to get from the one yard line to the 30..... wow.

Ponder: 1 Fumble, 3 INT's... but he was efficient!

I agree but on here, it's still Ponder's fault!

The defense gave up 34 points. I guess Ponder should have scored 35...

I think the number of people willing to defend Ponder is going to a lot less after this. My guess is there will be none in another 3 games.

Ponder totally sucks. He can't even complete a pass longer than 5 yards and made a bad handoff to Peterson to lose the game for us. At best he's a backup QB or maybe 3rd string. He can't throw on the run or handle the pass rush at all. It's already time to put Cassel in. I think Ponder is worse now than in his rookie year. If we didn't have Peterson we'd probably score 3 points a game. Oh Ponder just got picked off - nice job. It's time to stop blaming the receivers and put the blame where it really belongs.
