Touchdown Vikings! Ponder to Harvin!

[TreTheRaven]

Minnesota needs to learn how to hang on to the ball. Sheesh.

Looks like Tampa is going to get a huge road win here.

[JO_75]

I don't know how the playoffs will work out but if Tampa Bay makes the playoffs, look out because they are a good road team. I'd be afraid of Tampa in the playoffs if they make it.

I honestly had thought Minnesota was better than this too. Tampa is beginning to show what much of the media had expected in the beginning of the season.

I honestly don't know what to think of this Ponder kid.

[Cville-Raven]

LOL Ponder runs the most babyish offense for a QB. Hand the ball off to AP and then throw 6-7 screens to Harvin.

[TreTheRaven]

The first time I saw #28 Martin, I thought it was Curtis Martin. Then I finally realized, he would be way too old to still be playing.

[TreTheRaven]

Just take a knee, and go into half. Don't dig a deep hole than needed.

[TreTheRaven]

Uh, when did Dallas Clark go to the Bucs?

[TreTheRaven]

Game over.

[AsianRice]

[indent=3]I just saw Rice flash on 63yd TD from Martin...[/indent]

Peyton made him a superstar, and he is just an average Joe on TB offense...

Do you think the same could be said for anyone who plays or played for Peyton?

In another conclusion, yes....

[Gordo52]

Really, really, [i]really, [/i]kicken my self in the butt for starting Ridley over Martin.


I had him in last second, flipped a coin 3 times and all of them told me to start him, then took him out.

Crap. I'm facing someone whos playing AP. AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AsianRice]

Another big run Peterson and Martin just tore it up from the grounds...

[JO_75]

30 to 17, can Minnesota make the comeback?

Seriously? Ridley sucks in NE offense cuz they use RBs like clothes and they use short passes frequently and 2TE set. Martin always gets 20 touches a game, and he puts up avg of 11pts a game......

[JO_75]

Jared Allen got beat up!

Looks like he ran and cried to the crowds....

[AsianRice]

haha Ben beat Allen up in brawl fight but lost to him in defensive tackling...

[JO_75]

Jared Allen is my type of player, who needs band aids when he can just play without one!

Unfortunately Ponder and Co. couldn't take care of business.

Ridleys done great so far this year. I figured NE would have a pretty good lead where they run it with him 20+ times. I still think he'll do good, but not like what Dougs done tonight. I know, I know. Martins been picking it up the last 2 weeks, and meanwhile the Vikings stout run defense has slacked big time. I guess I put to much faith in the numbers of a defense that looks really good, but having no idea how they've done it.

APs good night is just salt in the wound.

[JO_75]

And there's your Dagger!

[AsianRice]

Martin 224yd and 2tds......Big game....32pts

Are you playing me? I started AP this week! lol

In one of my leagues I had Brandon Bolden for a while but between his injuries and not getting consistent carries I just dropped him. Who knows what's going on with the NE backfield anyway.

[JO_75]

Is Tampa's defense really this good or is Minnesota showing they may be overrated?

[/quote]didn't new orleans light their defense up just last sunday? it's not like the vikings offense is setting any records, they basically just get the ball to ap or harvin and hope for the best
