Nah. If he had a quarterback who knew how to look to his 2nd and 3rd reads, he might be a better OC...Ponder gets flustered at the snap and if #1 isn't there then the play is busted.

Follow up question: why isn't he Ponder's first read?

Management and coaches are IMO so important. How long has Musgrave been with us, over the years the Vikings seem to have the most unimaginative and predictable offenses. Maybe he should be the first to go

Does Sanford every wrap up when he goes to tackle? or just always drive with his shoulder thinking he is going blow everyone up.

The really bad news is our D is almost as bad as our O. Take out AD and it is worse. Take out AD and we don't win 3 games.

Frasier wont do that not his M.O. he will stick with Ponder till he gets him fired .

Agreed fully.

I just think we should call some plays for CP. Screens, runs, reverses. That's his game. We need to use him like we used Harvin.

I know this isn't college, but that's what we did at Tennessee last year. Guy can make people miss.

This is why I was pushing hard for Matt Elam. Unfortunately he goes to the Ravens who now have their Reed replacement.
