You run more and throw less. How is that so difficult to figure out?

Lacy was running for an average of 6.8 yds per play.

Starks was running for an average of 6.7 yds per play.

Dumb. How do you not stick with that?

Haha OMG it's like you just described Christian Ponder, except he's our franchise starter hahaha someone just shoot me already.

Wallace ... 463 CMP, 783 ATT, 59.1%, 4922 YDS, 6.29 AVG, 31 TD, 19 INT, 80.6 rating
Ponder .... 556 CMP, 932 ATT, 59.7%, 5860 YDS, 6.29 AVG, 34 TD, 31 INT, 76.3 rating

It's like the football gods decided they wanted to show Packer fans what Viking fans have to watch every Sunday. At least your coach isn't a moron so maybe he'll have Wallace better prepared than the idiots running our clown show. Now if only the football gods would let us Viking fans know what it's like to watch a top notch QB play every Sunday. 🙏

BUT, the defense can't shit itself. We need to help him.

The running game was working at times, that's why MM called nearly a 6:4 ratio of run to pass. You can't JUST run though. In the last 28 minutes of the game, the longest run the Packers had was 6 yards. There's a reason for that, the Bears loaded up against the run to stop it.

Ouch! All I can say is Seneca Sinclair Wallace reminded me of Christian Ponder last night, if that puts anything into perspective. Your game last night reminded me of nearly every Viking game the past 2 years. Big runs from a good running game, a QB running around looking lost, throwing horrible looking passes, and again losing another close game. Yes, you now have a glimpse of what it feels like to be a Viking fan these days. Wonderful feeling isn't it xD? Oh except you have something to look forward to, and your trophy case is still full.

You guys are new to the "OMFG I can't believe a QB can be this bad" club, and yeah it's frustrating, but even if Rodgers is out 5-6 weeks, at least you guys have that to look forward too. I mean it could be worse, there's nothing to look forward to in the QB department over here, except maybe the draft again. For whatever reason, Ponder was named our starter again for Thursday night. Frazier is still convinced he gives us the best chance to win, proof that he doesn't actually watch our games. Meanwhile the only QB who has looked good for us this year, and has our only win, has inexplicably been forgotten all about. All I can do is wonder what I ever did wrong to be stuck being a fan of this clueless sorry ass franchise.

Well anyway, just wanted to welcome you to the club even though your membership will be brief.
