Good news! Good for Joe!

...and I believe, "good for the Panthers" too.

Yep. It has been fun watching the Vikings tank without giving Joe a chance.

It will be more fun watching them tank when Joe is on another team.

So are you going to hate the Panthers now too? They aren't going to give Joe a chance either.

In case you forgot, the Vikings were a playoff team 2 years ago, and Joe started and went 11-30 in that game.

Newton is a better QB than Joe, I think we all know that.
It will be good to see Joe to get an opportunity should it come his way.

I guess you forgot that Joe didn't take a snap the entire year that year either & his performance against the Packers wasn't that much different than Ponder's.

Joe shouldn't be judged on that Packers game alone. It was the one that got noticed, but to judge him solely on a highly charged playoff game at Lambeau isn't fair. Even so, his stats were really no worse than Ponder's were during the regular season match-up.

Let's also not forget that Joe "out-Vicked" Michael Vick when he beat the Eagles pretty handily.

I don't judge Joe off that game, I judge him off everything I've seen of him. He isn't an NFL caliber starting QB. That much is obvious at this point. Hating on the Vikings and Ponder doesn't change that.

He's every bit the NFL caliber Christian Ponder is.

I don't think Christian Ponder is an NFL caliber starting QB either.(nor do the Vikings in case nobody has been paying attention)

Yeah, they finally figured it out after burning a first round pick.

That entire half of the first round was filled with idiotic QB picks for whatever reason. Even Cam was a bit of a risk, but I always thought he was worth it. But Locker, Gabbert, and Ponder were all reaches, and that's putting it nicely.

Throughout Joe's time with the Vikings, I learned one thing about that organization. They are clueless.

The only thing the Vikings have going for them is Adrian Peterson

So the Vikings are clueless, but they got Adrian Peterson anyway?

The NFL has more Viking's type organizations than Packer or 49 er type organizations. Picking players in the NFL draft is a high priced crap game.
