TNF - MIN vs TB (1 Viewer)

[Premier]

You're right of couse. The Vikings are sure to score 3 TD's in 7 minutes. What was I thinking?

So the Bucs should just concede common sense. Some of you people are just looking to #####.

 

[sporthenry]

Harvin possibly injured.

 

[solorca]

Whew...glad to see Harvin back on the field. Loving the garbage time.

 

[duaneok66]

nope = back in.

Twin Cities sports radio is gonna be ugly tomorrow.

 

[Johnny Rock]

If it wasn't for the Harvin bubble screens Ponder's stats would be terrible.

Also, the next time a Viking WR goes across the middle it'll be the first time this year.

 

[Awful Waffle]

Ponder's not even a good garbage time QB.

The o-line played like crap tonight. At least 6-10 times Ponder had no time to throw.

 

[Time Kibitzer]

Ponder kinda sucks. Doesn't seem to go through progressions at all, just locks on to a single player for the full extent of each play.

 

[Yenrub]

Shouldn't they kicked the FG after getting the penalty to cut the lead down to 2 scores

Hadn't thought about it but you're spot-on about the lack of receivers working inside.

 

[Donnybrook]

I really should of turned the sound off after the first half. Vikings haven't played well but I don't need Brad Nessler and Mike Mayock to keep telling me that every 15 seconds.

 

[MNTom]

That makes sense.

You are relentless in your defense of POnder. He's a bad QB. He's at under 200 yards for the game...which is 4x what he had last week but still not what they need. Guy needs to improve fast. Bears/Pack D will eat them up.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Tampa coach Shiano looks like a doosh.

 

[renesauz]

Don't think so. "Two scores" would have been including two two point conversions...just to tie...a tall order. Terrible odds either way, but in that spot (4th and 7) I think going for it is the right call

 

[scrumptrulescent]

Peterson has a great night for me and Minnesota gets beat down. This is too good to be true.

I didn't say he did not need to improve. But the rest of the team played just as crappy.You are obviously a Cardinals fan that can't believe Arizona lost to this team last week.

Becaus it didn't matter? Like, the game was over already?

 

[Johnny Rock]

I love Harrison Smith but he needs to start wrapping up. SO SICK of guys that just try to throw a big shoulder tackle. Hello!!! This is the NFL Harrison! Plenty of guys like Martin just bounce off and he looks like a fool.

How can you practice and play with Antoine Winfield every day and not learn something about how to tackle properly?

Word. Keep preaching, brother.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Ugh. Watching Jenkins' slow ### wearing Randy's old uni is awful.

How could he accept that number when he signed?

Shoot, do you realize how little tackling actually happens outside of real games in the NFL? Tackling fundamentals are lacking all across the league for this reason. But I imagine it does cut down on unnecessary injuries.

 

[Raider Nation]

Piss poor.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

...and on that note.

Things are just gonna get harder for the Vikings after this.

 

[Awful Waffle]

Think it may be time to look on the waiver wire for a new TE. Seems like Rudolph should be a guy used more across the middle, but he's not.

 

[Abspara]

I seem to remember Rudolph catching a nice one down the seam early in the year but he's not WR obviously. What made me think of it this week was VCruz going down the middle late this week against Washington. That hasn't happened once from what I remember and especially in a crucial late spot where the Defense needed to stop them. We can't even do that in a scripted 1st Qtr series. Terrible.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Knew the Vikes were a scam 5 win team, they proved it tonight...that said Jared Allen probably had the sack of the year, that was some of the best 3 minutes of football ever. Blood trickling down his nose, that was the picture of football.

 

[HurryUpSundays]

In all my years of FF I've never gotten a negative point total out of my defense. P*ss poor, Minnesota. P*ss poor.

... if only it were dripping on the frozen tundra of the venerable Met in Bloomington

 

[UKColt]

I'm glad I am 23pts in my non-PPR league!

Is this a yardage only league? Hes got 234 yards and 2 TDs.

1pt for 20 yards rushing/receiving, rather than 10.6pt TDs and 40yd play bonuses.

 

[FUBAR]

It's good to see Kevin Williams making some plays this game and this season.

He's been great for so many years and to think he should be Ryan Sims.

I heard his name during the game, but I see no points for him. What's the feeling about KW moving forward? Good player, but is he playable in FF for leagues with DT?
