This was his first start I think. I thought the 2012 game against 49ers was a better start and I thought he would be good for a while. I was wrong. He regressed his whole career.
@@matt4787 yep and Ponder hurt his shoulder before the playoffs and Joe Webb, who hadn't started a game since 2010, started for Minnesota, which doomed the team.
keith Morgan he did make the playoffs the season after this, mainly by not messing things up for AD. Then he got hurt and they had no backup 😂 fucking joe Webb a wr & college q.b. had to play qb vs the packers in the playoffs. No chance bruh. I kinda feel like with ponder at least it would have been closer. That’s about as much credit as I can give ponder lmao
@@lpquig37 The Vikings from 07-16 really didn't get Adrian Peterson much help at Qb besides the 09 season with Favre. He had terrible quarterbacks like Gus Frerotte, Tavaris Jackson, Brad Johnson, Christian Ponder, Matt Cassel and the list goes on & on. Not too mention the defense was meh majority of his career too.
@@seanp3302 You sure about that? From 2011-2013 they were garbage. The run defense was great for that two year strecth from 2008-2009 seasons. But to say they were always great is b.s heck in 2013 they had the worst defense in the league. 2014 onwards they got better under Zimmer
@@geekmuscle657 bruh the vikings had the best run defense literally from 2006-2010 it was bad for like 2 years then we got Mike Zimmer who made it great again. Just stick to your dolphins bro u obviously dont know what you're talking about
Life long Packers fan, but I absolutely loved watching AP run, still do. Such a crazy comeback. I watched the game live where he missed the single season rushing record just barely and I felt really bad for him when they told him how close he was to the record.
Dang. I don't remember the Vikings being this competitive in this game. I do remember thinking Ponder has a bright future but I swore it was kind of a blow out after the first touchdown.
This game brings back so many memories, Christian ponder trying to make a name for himself, AP in his prime, Greg Jennings, Charles Woodson, Mason Crosby not missing every Extra point/ field goal. As a 80% packers fan and a 10% Vikings fan this brings tears to my eyes
6-0 vs 1-5 games are only interesting when they’re division rivalry showdowns. Division football is way different than any other semblance of the game. Division football fucking rules
It always amazes me, when I watch some of these games from the sorta recent past, that so many good to star players leave the game without fanfare or notice. Names like Kuhn, James Jones, Jared Allen, all kinds of O and D lineman. I know if you’re an avid fan of these two teams you noticed but as a fan of another team I’m like, “Wow! I forgot about that guy. He was a good player.”
Peterson’s run @2:30 perfectly defines his running style in his prime.. Displays his exceptional field vision, agility, elusiveness, and his willingness to always finish a run through contact. All of this on a simple counter call for 12 yards that must backs would have been swallowed up after 3-4 yards
Being that I'm from their hometown, I can't recall siblings playing along side each other in the NFL. (#50 Erin Henderson and #56 Eric Henderson for the Vikings) I thought that was pretty cool to see.
Jermichael finely, Greg Jennings, Nelson, Cobb who wasn’t even established yet. James Jones and Ryan grant? This team shouldn’t of lost to the giants in the divisional round
Fast forward to 2020 and all Rodgers has to work with is Davante Adams and Aaron Jones. Meanwhile the defense is actually good again for the first time in forever.
Don't forget about Finley. everyone always forgot about him. Great Tight End, just didn't stay healthy in the long run and never got many targets with such a loaded offense.
Arthur Rahman I remember him having stone hands for the first year or two. Then he straitened it out and suffered a career ending neck injury.. haven’t had a great tight end since
Arthur Rahman he didn’t really piss off Green Bay. He simple wasn’t very good anymore. It doesn’t help that Green Bay’s offense is going through a complete makeover.
What the HELL was that Greg Jennings touchdown? That was Madden NFL on Rookie mode on the Wii right there. Got to give kudos to Minnesota for actually coming back and making it interesting after that.
2:30 greatness meeting greatness on the field adrian peterson shattering charles woodsons ankles rip 7:43 christ almighty!!! adrian peterson was a monster! nobody in todays NFL looks like that running the ball
Adrian Peterson is the greatest RB off all time. People need to stop with the bullshit. He’s still great and these bonehead teams keep giving up on him
Sorry, but this is a "classic game" because Aaron Rodgers in his prime crushed a rookie QB who - by all accounts - was drafted a dozen rounds too early?
Ponders last good game, because he absolutely sucks. After getter battered and beat up, he became scared, nervous, happy feet, with a weak arm. He was was one of the worst qbs in Vikings history.
This comment didn't age well..might as well delete your account because your takes are garbage. Hopefully you didn't bet on this game in favor of the fudge Packers...but you probably did, peasant.
He is not over rated. He is one of the best qbs of all time so stop hating. He makes throws that nobody else on earth can make. I bet your someone who thinks the earth is flat
If Tim Tebow had a thought, would it be a Christian Ponder?

The first nfl game I ever went to back in 5th grade :) I always come back to watch this in order to relive my childhood
This was the game when it looked like Christian ponder might have a good future.
What happened to him? Did he underachieve or was he injury prone
@@elijahechicagobearsboyd5734 He was awful.

As a viking fan, I'd like to forget the 2011 season lol
BUT YOU GUYS HAD DONOVAN MCNABB!
I’m a Vikings fan and we truly wasted a generational talent in Peterson.
What are you gonna do? Y'all took the best QB available in 2011 besides maybe Dalton. Sometimes you can do everything right and shit doesn't work out.

The more simpler days for the NFl
Finely was the best tight end Rodgers ever had
TheTastedFungus jimmy graham??!
@@imarioncooks1453 He's out of his prime. If we was then yes
Jared Cook is a close second
Yeah. He was great. It’s a shame he had that career ending injury.
TheTastedFungus Jared Cook > JerMichael Finley
5:39 that’s what I mostly remember from my Vikings playing them when I was younger always Jennings Nelson Jones having long touchdowns
1:29 in is the most productive spike EVER 🤣🤣
He got some bounce on that
Bro I was looking for comments that saw that too. That was dope
This game brings back so many memories, Christian ponder trying to make a name for himself, AP in his prime, Greg Jennings, Charles Woodson, Mason Crosby not missing every Extra point/ field goal. As a 80% packers fan and a 10% Vikings fan this brings tears to my eyes
Peterson was unreal through the gaps explosive elusive n quickness.
I have to say what was the Vikings coach thinking
we were blessed to watch aaron rodgers sling a football. not only those throws but he might work a pocket better than anyone ive ever seen
jennings, nelson, jones, driver and finley...STACKED
6-0 vs 1-5 games are only interesting when they’re division rivalry showdowns. Division football is way different than any other semblance of the game. Division football fucking rules
Lol at that late hit on Matthews. People act like the NFL being QB bias is recent but it's not
6:25 Brett Favre ALMOST makes the tackle
Am I the only one that didnt r/whooosh that one
that isn't favre

Bring back these uniforms! Skol Vikes!
Hell yeah! The throwback unis are the best!
Why would you show this game??? The one at the end of 2012 was WAYYY better...
Crazy how time flies.
Jermichael finely, Greg Jennings, Nelson, Cobb who wasn’t even established yet. James Jones and Ryan grant? This team shouldn’t of lost to the giants in the divisional round
Oh yea and James starks as a change of pace back? Jesus.
Fast forward to 2020 and all Rodgers has to work with is Davante Adams and Aaron Jones. Meanwhile the defense is actually good again for the first time in forever.
Shouldn't have dummy
2011 Aaron Rodgers was the best passer league ever saw
Ponder regressed throughout his career. Great guy. Bad QB.
6:27 Brett Farve never retired, he was just the punter.
Cobb, Jones, Nelson, Jennings, Driver. Now that was a receiving corps
Don't forget about Finley. everyone always forgot about him. Great Tight End, just didn't stay healthy in the long run and never got many targets with such a loaded offense.
Arthur Rahman I remember him having stone hands for the first year or two. Then he straitened it out and suffered a career ending neck injury.. haven’t had a great tight end since
@@wiley5oh51 ya Jimmy Graham fell off after he left the saints. Dissapointed my Seahawks and then pissed off Green Bay
Arthur Rahman he didn’t really piss off Green Bay. He simple wasn’t very good anymore. It doesn’t help that Green Bay’s offense is going through a complete makeover.
Dude this packers team was LOADED!!
3:57 haha Robison the legend
1:30 Never seen a ball spiked so high in my life......LOL and right to the ref too.
What the HELL was that Greg Jennings touchdown?
That was Madden NFL on Rookie mode on the Wii right there.
Got to give kudos to Minnesota for actually coming back and making it interesting after that.
Wow Roughing the passer call on Clay Matthews even back then
13 of 32 with 9 3rd down completions.
Packers defense that year was absolutely pathetic
1:26 okay we gotta admit for him to hold on to that ball was amazing but how about the dope toss to the ref too?
Dwayne Jones factss
Ap is really a beast tho
3:57 - Jared Allen was the best, but you gotta love that Polamalu attempt.
Him and the Williams wall were insane
This was after the williams wall
2:30 greatness meeting greatness on the field
adrian peterson shattering charles woodsons ankles rip
7:43 christ almighty!!! adrian peterson was a monster! nobody in todays NFL looks like that running the ball
stellar commentary at 7:31
Sean Bosworth lol
Everson Griffen chasing down rookie Randall Cobb on a punt return 👀
Christian ponder that’s a name I ain’t heard in a while
Former florida st legend him then ej manuel then winston lmao all first round picks
I don’t think anyone besides Marcus sherles is left from this team
Sherels is on the saints and we still have everson
And Rudolph
Clay Matthews was called for some of the most egregious rtp calls.
Adrian Peterson is the greatest RB off all time. People need to stop with the bullshit. He’s still great and these bonehead teams keep giving up on him
Tbh after this game i knew we won't repeat as SB champs our defense was trash giving up 27 points to Christian Ponder.
who else misses sports? 😢
Aaron Rodgers Was Totally Better Than Brett Favre
0 energy from this announcer…
I feel bad for Christian Ponder. He had a good future ahead of him that was plauged by injuries
How does Everson miss that punt block late in the 4th?? Looked like he could have just talked the punter.. haha
Inside the mind of Greg Jennings anybody?
The score box used to be so cool
Rodgers just being Rodgers
Between ponder , ej Manuel and Jameis Winston florida st seems to be snakebit with first rd QBs alot
Sorry, but this is a "classic game" because Aaron Rodgers in his prime crushed a rookie QB who - by all accounts - was drafted a dozen rounds too early?
"Perfect"
1:41 *gets first down*
Joe Buck: “It’s 7-7”
😕😐😑
Christian Ponder. What were we thinking when we drafted him?
What happened to C. Ponders?? He had good potential
Worst announcers ever
Where did this Aaron Rodgers go
look at the weapons he had back then
Ummm...I think the title is a bit misleading. AP barely did anything in this game.
How about the "Disgusting Act by Randy Moss" game instead?
Already made, and still hilarious.
When the Vikings had more metallic jerseys, they looked a lot better than they do now, which is very dull
9:23 how is that a late hit? At least it has gotten a little better. But the quarterbacks are still babies.
Where's Donovan McNabb?
Ponders last good game, because he absolutely sucks. After getter battered and beat up, he became scared, nervous, happy feet, with a weak arm. He was was one of the worst qbs in Vikings history.
I mean Peterson had a good game but he didn’t dominate and Ponder threw 2 tds
Green Bay Packers won Super Bowl championship 1966 and 1967 Minnesota Vikings won 3 NFC Championship 1973 1974 and 1976
Bears won super bowl in 1985 with one of the greatest teams of all time all games they won where blow outs except the game they lost to Dan Marino
@@ghostnight845 if the dolphins didn't lose in the first round they would of made it to the super and would got his first super bowl ring lol
christian ponder. lol. hard to get much unluckier than that adrian peterson

3:59
Go Pack Go
Interesting how we still played down to shitty teams like the vikings
