Here's a full breakdown of Greg Jennings' contract. More smart accounting -- pay as you go after first 2 years, $18M.

Jennings essentially gets 2 years and $18 mil, everything else is optional

21/35 - 198 41 RA - 49ers - W
16/26 - 100 28 RA - Loins - W
25-35 - 258 31 RA - Titans - W
35/52 - 327 24 RA - Redskins - L
8/17 - 43 27 RA - AZ - W
19/35 - 229 21 RA - TB - L
11/22 - 44 27 RA - Seahawks - L - Harvin went down
24-32 - 207 34 RA - Loins - W
22/43 - 144 20 RA - Bears - L
12/25 - 119 28 RA - GBP - L
11/17 - 77 38 RA - Bares - W
17/24 - 109 33 RA - Rams - W
16/30 - 171 42 RA - Texans - W
16/28 - 227 37 RA - GBP - W

All I can see from this broad overview is that Ponder needs to get better throwing downfield. He started the season really well. Somewhere around the AZ game, he started to get less accurate. Maybe that's receivers and him both. Hard to say. I will say that I watched quite a few Viking games this past year. For some reason, it actually looked like it was by design, there was a free edge rusher hitting Ponder square in the back often. They would do a shallow roll out and the opposite edge rusher wouldn't even be checked. 2-3 times a game this happened. He got jumpy by the end of the season.

The AZ game was about the time that Harvin got hurt if I recall correctly. When he went down the passing game just got putrid as the Vikes had absolutely nobody to throw other than TE Rudolph. Everything became dink and dunk but there was no Harvin to make those short throws into long gains. Ponder also isn't good throwing downfield. He did play better after he got married, so maybe his wife has the opposite effect that Brooke Shields had on Agassi.

$17.8 million is fully guaranteed. Eugene Parker is very good at what he does, even if he was Captain Holdout.

Good stuff, thanks for the link!

Hasselbeck signed with Indy.

Comment woodbuck27:

Yes that didn't take long. It must be 'Super' to have the money.

We need to find a solid #2 QB. My immediate thought and seeing that Matt Hasselbeck was released was >>>Packers. Indy is CAP rich and not lacking in the smarts Dept.

I stand corrected. Good luck with that.

[pbmax]

We've got the fire under control. But I now have this urge to take a long business trip East.
