Minnesota Vikings thread

[ArgoRavi]

The game was on here but I missed it having to go to the airport to pick up my wife. I'm not sure how they're pulling off these wins but I'll take it. Your right though they've been winning with Ponder even though he throws for tiny numbers most games. 58 yards? How does a team win? Well they have been getting return td's, pick 6 td's etc. So far I'd say they're a very lucky team. I won't complain as you need all aspects of your team to help you win.

Sounds a bit like the Cleo Lemon era in Toronto although Cleo's numbers weren't that bad.

Ponder was playing a little bit better earlier in the year, but he hasn't been as effective the last few weeks.

You have to remember Ravi that in the NFL (although it is increasingly not becoming the case) you can get by with not as strong a passing game as long as that QB doesn't screw things out of proportion. The Vikings have 2/3 phases of the game (D & specials) working well. They also have one of the best running backs in the National Football League.
