LOL nope I love CP I just have to be critical when he makes dumb play as I would any Vike . I am just not a fan that spews venom no matter what Ponders does thats all . He is a second year QB and is learning the game . Mike Vick turns the ball over like a turnstyle but he doesnt get called out like Ponder does for every pass that he throws badly or checks down .

If Ponder doesn't take chances he gets criticized. If he takes chances he gets criticized. Just shut up and watch the kid grow up.

+1

If you expected Ponder to have 0 INTs the whole year...well I have news for you...

It was bound to happen, at least it's against a team we are otherwise dominating.

That being said; 2 turrrrrible passes. But I'm not concerned, because he has way more beautiful passes.

We saw what happened last year when he started throwing INTs...i hope im wrong, but I doubt it. Or maybe Mustgrave doesnt let him throw a ball more then 5 yards again to pad those stats

He missed a WIDE OPEN Rudolph there. But the footwork on that throw is real tricky. I wouldn't say that's why he isn't allowed to throw down the field... he's thrown plenty down the field in this game so far.

That was a gigantic hiccup there, though. Cost us a definite 3 points. I HATE leaving points out there. No lead is safe in the NFL; you need everything you can get. Should be 16-0 right now. Yes, I'm bothered by this.

I completely agree. I'm glad someone thinks like me

I like that strategy

Yeah, I doubt you're wrong too. Usually things don't change at all from season to season. I'm sure things will happen now just as they did last year. You're right on the money!

Are you for real or are you just trying to piss people off.

Me too LOL

OK Vikes lets take this ball and jam it down their friggen throats !

I just want to see us put up points on the first possesion

We're up 13, shutting out their offense, and the Packers are 2-3. You never like to see points left on the field but overall it's a good day so far.

Great moment in that Colts locker room.
