I've watched the whole game and I'm telling you. The kid is good. Damn good! He's making some amazing passes on the run while threading a needle. He met Woodson like Cam met Woodson, but as a passer, this kid is very impressive.

Sleeping on him would be a huge mistake. He reminds of Brady as far as his clutch play making ability and accuracy but who can also pass on the run like Cam. And he's fast when he scrambles. Scary combo. It might be early but I think the Vikings have found their new franchise QB.

This guy and Peterson all of a sudden makes the Vikings game one of the hardest games on our schedule, if not the hardest. Vikings have also always given us trouble.

Talent was never ponders problem

I think what he was doing on 3rd downs in crunch time is what was really impressive. He can use his legs too, which surprised me.

Wasn't this mainly the Packers got sloppy and shut it down before they should have?

We just need to outscore AP next week. Fortunatley we have an offense that can compete.

Jared Allen vs Byron Bell, oh boy

Christian played very well for his first time out. 2 tds and 2 ints for 206..IMO, against the the best team in the league right now and that can only bode well for him.

Although I will be honest and say, the Panthers made their time against the Packers look easier and seem more winnable.

Worry about Peterson

Do not worry about Ponder

Stack the box, I don't see him throwing for more than 2 touchdowns, if we can mostly shut down Peterson we'll be fine even if he does have a "good" game.
