Well, after looking back at the game and what all went wrong (oofta), here are my final thoughts on it.
1: Frazier knew our odds of beating the packers, and decided to save his preferred choice at QB and threw Webb under the bus. Which is fine since Ponder is a decent QB, while Webb is flat out dog shit. And now we can get rid of him.
2: We desperately need to work on our receivers. Simpson is alright, Wright has shown some talent in his first year, and Rudolf is great when he can break away. But we need to focus on them more because as we saw last night, when you have Peterson carrying the entire offense it becomes painfully easy to shut us down. And speaking of Peterson....
3: Our pass D blows ass. Seriously. Any halfway decent QB with a mediocre receiver can bomb it down the field on us over and over again to get to the red zone. It's been this way for years it seems, and needs to stop. Our run D is awesome, however.
And now, looking towards the off season....
1: Dump Harvin. The guy is great, but way to fragile. See if we can find anyone who would give us something for him, and if not send his ass packing. We have other receivers we can build up.
2: Don't even bother trying to trade Webb, just tell him to pack his shit and gtfo. Nobody will want him after that miserable showing, and I mean nobody. The guys isn't even worthy of being a practice squad member. He is just flat out bad. Why we passed on Rosenfels for that clown, I have no idea. But now we have paid the price.
3: Adrian He-Cant-Be-Human Peterson. The man is a running machine. He is the biggest asset on the Vikings offensive line. He is also very, very valuable. If the Vikings are smart, they will look to other spots on the roster than are in need of improvement, and put Peterson on the auction block to see what they can get for him while his stock is red hot. Losing a running back that great would hurt, but if we can fill other spots that are more in need than RB it might be a trade worth making.
