I don't understand why Freeman, with so much pressure in his face, isn't looking to dump down to Peterson. I'll take my chances with him in the flat over Jerome Simpson.

Been wondering that for a while
subpar for even him . . .Josh Freeman completing under 40% of his passes.
Worse, and pay him $3 million.Advice for any GM: don't sign any starting QB that was cut from a winless team.
That will happen whether Freeman passes for a td or not. RN is an Adonis.might as well wish for a supermodel to go out with you tomorrow night.I need Freeman to pass for a TD on this drive so that my division rival loses.
Stranger things have happened, right?![]()
At least the running 3 and outs would've used more clock and this pukefest would be overhow do you not give Peterson 25+ touches in a game like this... maybe i'm thinking to much or not at all that they would score more than 7 points in that scenario
Holy spit, you weren't lying. At first I thought you were exaggerating until I looked up his season stats (45.7%)subpar for even him . . .Josh Freeman completing under 40% of his passes.
let him learn the playbook, he will be up to 45% just like he was for the Bucs.
Fixed.So much fail there.
At no time, in no series, should Freeman pass on THREE TIMES more downs than AP runs.
I have seen AD wide open many times for a short pass yet Freeman just chucking it 30 yards down-field with nobody close-crazy!It's really shocking. With Freeman struggling so badly....even if you want to throw it, wouldn't you find ways to get it to Peterson in the passing game? Good lord, this is atrocious.Seriously, you would think they didnt have the best RB in the world with how little they used ADP.
we have a new winner . . .Refs should know every throw by Freeman is un-catchable.
Yahoo scored that last 3rd down slide by Manning as a sack for zero yards. Why not a run for zero yards? May cost me the game.

seriously, they just took $3mil and threw it away - they could have fed a lot of starving kids for that.Holy spit, you weren't lying. At first I thought you were exaggerating until I looked up his season stats (45.7%)subpar for even him . . .Josh Freeman completing under 40% of his passes.

:likesthis:Put Ponder in!!!
Need 3 TDs? I'll take my chances with PetersonIt's a 3 score game in the fourth quarter.So much fail there.

Pfft. Call time out , tell Freeman to call a pass play but run instead of pass. Or give him a sharpie and have him draw it up in the huddle in the "grass"not in the playbook4th and 5, your line can't stop a defense with 6 sacks in 6 games from teeing off into the backfield, you have a guy that may not be Russell Wilson but can at least run a bit. Why not call a QB Draw?
Not strong enough.How's the dope in MIN?
To be fair, ADP was going nowhere, and half those throws came after the Vikes were down 2 scores or more in the second half. The much bigger question is why didn't they put Ponder out there at some point in the fourth???how do you let that guy throw the ball 46 times?????? The coach should be fired in the morning
it is only a 2 score gameThe Vikes really calling timeouts? Come on man
Would you have them just quit? Miracle TD... 2-pointer... onside kick recovery... miracle TD... 2-pointer.The Vikes really calling timeouts? Come on man
I've seen rookies play worse, but it's not easy to recall a worse performance by a fifth-year veteranI honestly don't think I've ever seen a worse game by a QB. New offense/team-mates/playbook or not. Almost every pass is uncatchable, way off target. And for all the talk of pressure...he really hasn't been under THAT much duress. WHy bother blitzing a QB who can't hit a WIDE OPEN WR, let alone one with a defender within 4 yards?
