no we will put 9 in the box and make Ponder beat us.

Which, he could be capable.

This is what I'm afraid of, Kid looked pretty good and he seems to have a good rapport with Shiancoe...not to mention, every team has put 8 or 9 in the box every week against Min and he still gets over 100 sometimes close to 200...I dare say that our run D has looked just as bad, if not worse, than any other team I've watched all year.

eh....he was 13 for 32 passing. That's not very good.

I'd rather give up 300 rushing yards to a stud like Adrian Peterson than 300 passing yards to rookie Christian Ponder. At least we could say we got beat by the best RB in football and chalk it up to that than the much larger "we got torn up by a rookie" discussion.

    • So we cut him if we don't give him the option?  I'm pretty sure there are players who didn't get the 5th-year option that played year four of their rookie contracts with their draft team.
    • I didn't say do nothing if we don't draft one in the 1st and I"m not counting on a FA to magically become a franchise QB. But signing a FA to be our starter for the year and then re-address the next offseason would be FAR better than reaching on the wrong QB in the 1st this offseason. Feeling we HAVE to find our long term solution just because we need a new QB is how we got into this mess.  We thought Two Gloves would be at worst an average level QB for a few years, that didn't happen, so we went out and traded for Darnold.  That didn't work so we went out and traded for Baker, that didn't work so we went out and traded up to get Bryce. Our last 4 QB moves were all trying to force a solution, none of them worked out, and we're still trying to find Cam's replacement all these years later.  We'd just have been better off spending a year or two building up the rest of the team and going year to year on FA QB's while doing so.  I get it, it will be frustrating to deal with, but then when you find that actual long term solution, they plug right into an already built out roster and you're ready to contend immediately.
    • Great win, should be 3-0 but I'll take 2-1. LaMelo is an MVP caliber player, period.   This is looking like an incredible draft so far. Sion James looking like the exact type of role player that all contending teams need to have, absolute steal in the 2nd. Kalk is a work in progress and I question how much upside he has but he's already been a considerable upgrade at C for us compared to the last several years (outside of healthy Mark which of course was rare).   Really seems like new ownership/front office has change the culture here significantly. Every guy looks bought in now.
