Patterson with an injured hip. Questionable to return.

Glad I put him on the bench this week. Just didn't have a good feeling.

My wife asks, "do you think Ponder goes home and just acknowledges he's bad?". To be honest, I think he probably does.

i guess this is probably rock bottom, with everything going on this was probably going to happen

going forward teddy will be back (and hopefully bring a spark to the offense with him) and hopefully zimmer gives the defense a kick in the pants and we won't be this bad the rest of the year

I think we really made a mistake not getting the ball into Patterson's hands more. With Ponder at QB, we needed to get the ball in the hands of someone who could make explosive plays.
The defense wasn't good, but it wasn't as bad as it looked. We just gave GB too many possessions because we couldn't maintain a drive of our own. GB punted 5 times in the first half, but still had 28 points. We've got to find a way to keep teams out of the end zone. Over the last two weeks, teams have scored 10 Td's with no field goals.
