Vikings @ Seahawks Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 11

[purplehaze]

One of these years we will get a Russel Wilson. We can't be snake bitten forever.

Ponder couldn't possibly have telegraphed that pass any more than he did. Well, I guess he could have verbally told Seattle before the play where he was going, but beyond that, that was basically as bad of a telegraph as I've ever seen

Really lucky to avoid the Pick 6 there.

The announcers blamed Webb for running a bad route, but he was occupying two defenders and really had no play at that point. Ponder had to have someone open or in single coverage, but as usual, he didn't find anyone and forced a bad pass. We were very lucky.

Maybe ponder isn't our guy

Don't be too sure about that. He's very likely to have a few more average games this year and maybe even one more good one. Just have to build off that for next year...



P.S. Spielman, I despise you for not doing more to fix this prior to the start of this season. You should have at the LEAST given yourself a viable veteran option.

B-b-b-b-but what about those few flash plays he give us once every 4 games?

b-b-b huh? Wow. We think alike. lol. Posted that about the same time as me.

What the hell was all those hugs and kisses for Harvin? from the Vikings staff and players

FRazier is the one that wanted harvin gone. Harvin questioned Fraziers coaching.

@1500ESPNJudd in seattle, upper deck view. Receivers getting open... Ponder refuses to pull the trigger.

It's bad recievers! It's bad play calling! No, it's ponder.

The seahawks are going to be scary in the playoffs with homefield advantage. But they are vulnerable..... i would love to see what a team like Denver or New Orleans would do against seattle...

I think it was our attempt to get him to ease up on us.

[soflavike]

The problem with the Vikings offense is that they practice against the Vikings defense... and vice versa.

You'll get to see what New Orleans can do in a couple of weeks.

Typical.

[J. Kapp 11]

Wow. A Jared Allen sighting.

That's what I was thinking too - please don't hurt us.

[Funkytown]

Who is ultimately responsible for the call to kick it to Harvin right before the half? (AS IF WE DONT KNOW WHAT HE IS CAPABLE OF!) I'd like to punch that person right in the throat. Without that big return, I doubt they would have been so aggressive. Take those 7 points off, and we've got a game. Idiots.
