Yeah how bout that game? You Packer fans can only wish your franchise could be this embarrassing. Yeah that's right, we're #1 when it comes to most embarrassing franchises. Suck it! Oh man I think I'm going to be sick. We're the new Aints. Where's my bag? No wait, we're the new Lions of the NFC North. Like Barry Sanders, Peterson is going to go down as one of the best backs whose career was wasted in Minnesota.
It's clear Freeman wasn't ready to start and heads should roll for that decision. As Gruden pointed out during the game, Freeman couldn't audible, couldn't change protection, heck he couldn't make any pre-snap adjustments because he didn't know the offense well enough. Maybe I'm just stupid, but that doesn't sound like a guy who's ready to make his first start. More mind boggling was the decision to list the struggling guy with the rib injury (Ponder) as the backup, and Cassel (the guy with our only win) was deactivated in essentially a must win game. It was a travesty to start Freeman to begin with, but it was disgusting not to pull him in the 2nd half before he set every dubious record imaginable on prime time.
Don't we get all the coaches fired?

Now please do us another favor and get Frazier fired Sunday night and put us out of this misery. End the Frazier and Ponder era all in 1 spectacular train wreck. Pretty please!
People do stupid things. Everyone wants a top 5 or top 10 QB and are going to bench their #15 QB to take a gamble on someone that has talent but has never succeeded in the hopes they'll score a gem for cheap. Usually they end up being a flop.
