Next years QB?

[klecker]

somebody helped him beat the eagles last december.just sayin,he could someday develop into a useable qb.

He may have beat the Eagles, but he lost to Detroit. Both games it was the D that keeped them in and or won the game. In both games he did not put up any numbers that stand out as a starting QB. You can only ride the AP train for so long and that window is also closing.

The Vikes have no choice but to go and find a starting QB, Webb is not the answer. Second thought keep him, GB defense would love it.

Go Pack.

The window closed after the loss in the NFC Championship Game.

The defense won that game. Period. And as for a "useable qb" as you put it, yep, holding a clipboard

[Born2Fish]

I have to say I agree. Webb is not our answer this year. The vikes need to go out and get someone that can win us games with his arm. I have a sneaky feeling that Kolb will be our starting Qb this year.

I have a hard time believing after taking Ponder so early in the draft that they will now trade a 1st or 2nd rounder to bring a different young QB in Kolb in.

[zamboni]

Hasn't that already been pretty much said that Ponder's the guy? I thought for sure I have heard coaches, the head coach and front office guys say that since the draft

I've read a lot about how the lock-out will specifically hurt QBs like Ponder. Typically, an NFL team has OTA's and then mini-camps to teach the playbook. Then the teams do final installations from the playbook in training camp and drills those plays to perfection (hopefully). Because of the lockout, teams have missed all of the OTA's and mini-camps. Luckily Ponder came in and got the playbook the day that the lockout was lifted. However, that's no substitute. Teams with rookie QBs will be struggling to teach the playbook during training camp when they would typically be on their third review and fine tuning.

Ponder will get DESTROYED by the NFL if the Vikings try to throw him in there. Nevermind all of the usual reservations that people have about using a first year QB. This guy really doesn't know the playbook! No rookie does. You can read it all you want but you need the coaches to teach it to you.

If the Vikings don't bring in a veteran QB like McNabb or Palmer to carry the torch for a year or two, then the Vikings just wasted a first round pick. Even starting Joey Webb for the ENTIRE year would be better than tossing Ponder into the ring.

However, never trust the words of a Packer fan......Muhahahahahahaha!!!!

The Vikes could end up with Vince Young....I'm just saying

[Double D]

I read in two places today that Kolb to Arizona is a done deal when it can be made official. Like everyone else, just saying.

It will be alright. I remember a couple guys named Aikman (1-15 rookie season) and Peyton Manning setting a single season pick record his rookie year. They turned out ok. To me, the best way to learn is to actually do something. Let him play.

[FISHINGURU]

Start Ponder, see what he's got. It's the era of the rookie QB.

[PurpleFloyd]

I am ready for Ponder to start and see what he has.
