I for one, dont think he is all that bad of a QB, and doesnt deserve much of the blame he gets for “losing” games.  (it was a year ago today, that we came from a huge deficit to beat the Broncos, but hey that was all Diggs, Thielen and Smith.......)

But I think we can all agree that he is being paid beyond his productivity (moreso this year)

IF.....Cousins would restructure a “team friendly...home town discount” that kept him in Minnesota for another five six seasons...

would you want him around?  
would you have him starting / mentoring?

or cut our losses, hope for the best in the draft, and kick him to the curb?

You know who loved the Ponder pick? MB. 


I hope you're being sarcastic. I wasn't on this board then, but those who know me from previous boards will know that I wouldn't shut up about one QB. Colin Kaepernick. I still have all of those posts, too. Dozens of them. Even got into an email war with a national writer over his ridiculous thought that Ricky Stanzi would be a better QB than Kaepernick. 

But the worst pick wasn't Ponder. Or Underwood. Ponder was a reach but could've turned out OK, and in fact played a few seasons, rode AP to the playoffs one year. Underwood had a mental issue that few knew about. Worst pick in my opinion was Michael Boireau. Vikings took him in the 2nd round and nobody knew who he was. Wasn't on any draft boards at all. He never played. Not a single snap. He was out of the NFL in two years. 



Yes, being very sarcastic. You've mentioned many times how much you hated the Ponder pick. 


I remember a kid on the old PT board named Ponderdat who was obsessed with Ponder, thought he was the next Joe Montana, couldn't stop posting about it.   People get really weird ideas about things in this world.


I remember him, I think he was a young kid. Possibly related.  :p

Sam Ponder rolled over and asked me to tell you to STFU.
