Game Thread W14 - Minnesota V Detroit (1 Viewer)

Ponder Fumble, recovered for a TD by Det.

Next series, Ponder INT.

I'm wondering how long this goes on and if they're going to pull him.

 
That INT was one reason Tebow is better than Ponder. Tebow just tosses the ball into the ground, no int. Ponder forces that ball over and over and over, and he does not have the arm for it. He is not good enough to do a Favre

 
The TD by Young is what drives me nuts about NFL rules!! I am glad he scored but had he made the exact same play in the end zone it would be incomplete,

Tebow throws that ball into the ground unintentionally. That's the real difference.

Tebow would have more int if he was that badthe other difference - Tebow is a winning qb.
 
This could end up being one of the worst blow outs ever. Detriot passing atteack vs the worst secondary in the NFL. I think the Vikings have benched Griffen after he blew the coverage on Young.

It's really not that difficult to understand. The difference is, that he had the ball for 10-15yds, and was a runner when he crossed the goal line, not a receiver.That's the distinction.I agree though, the NFL's receiving rules are junk.

Sadly for fantasy owners, Calvin probably won't put up decent numbers in the process. Why bother throwing into double teams when your other WRs are wide open?
 
Sure glad they told the team that fraiser would be back next year.. got them all fired up to come out and play hard this week :thumbup:

Seriously.. :bag: time.. short of the front four defensive line the rest of the team has packed it in.. :thumbdown:

I love when guys get burned and then to something they had nothing to do with(underthrown pass in this case) saves them from complete embarrassment and then they celebrate as if they had anything to do with the play not ending in a touchdown. The Lions are pretty much the Raiders minus anything to back up their tough talk and ridiculous antics. Frazier is a terrible coach, why did we come out throwing against a terrible run defense? Spotting the other team 14 points for no reason at all is why we're 2-10, fire this idiot or sell the team to someone who knows how to get results Wylf.

 
I'm really liking the Vikings' usage of Harvin. Regardless of situation -- behind, ahead, need a lot or a little yardage -- the Vikings appear willing to force the ball into Harvin's hands.

 
Looked like Megatron got hit in the chin on that reverse where he was shaken up. Booker's second fumble of the day, bury that bum on the bench Frazier.

 
Lorenzo Booker has had two fumbles already. He also had the key fumble on the kick return vs Oakland. This guy shouldn't have a job next year.

 
Stat question

Calvin got credited 11 yards rushing on that end around when there was holding. Does it count because it was holding past the line of scrimmage?

 
Good thing Musgrave and Frazier decided to come out throwing. Now running with a minute left what the hell is wrong with our coaches? :wall:

I do not recall a fumble by Gerhart, they must be confused on the Booker fumble.

I believe it does. It was 2nd and 9, Calvin ran for 11 yards, the hold brought it back to 2nd and 8. Gain of 11- 10 for holding = 1 yard.

So it's 11 yards rushing and a 10 yard penalty? I always thought the player gets credited with the net amount of yards gained. I'm probably wrong.
