The Percy Harvin fight on the sideline, coupled with Adrian Peterson making some of his greatest runs of the season recently led the Minnesota Vikings to an improbable 24-21 win on the road against the Carolina Panthers. It was clear that the team was inspired and fired up to play with a new leader at starting quarterback named Christian Ponder.  While Donovan McNabb has taken...

Last week, the Minnesota Vikings decided that with a record of 1-5, they needed to take a look toward the future and named rookie QB Christian Ponder as the starting quarterback for likely the remainder of the season. I thought that McNabb’s season with the Washington Redskins was a blip on the radar, but after watching him play this season, you have to wonder if Donovan McNabb...

Donovan McNabb says in an NFL Network interview that he should still be the starter and questioned whether he should be blamed for the team’s 1-6 record. He might not be the only reason for the poor start, but his inability to convert third downs with a lead was a big reason.

The Minnesota Vikings made the switch to rookie quarterback Christian Ponder last week, and he started his first NFL game against the Green Bay Packers. Ponder took over for Donovan McNabb in the middle of the Vikings' game a week. On the season, McNabb completed 60% of his passes, threw for 1,026 yards, 4 touchdowns, and two interceptions in his six starts. In that stretch,...

It’s unknown whether former Vikings quarterback Donovan McNabb is attempting to sell any of his teammates on the notion that he should be the starting quarterback, in the hopes that perhaps enough players will clamor for McNabb that he’ll be reinstalled at the top of the depth chart.  But it is known that McNabb is…

     Two 1st round draft picks square off this Sunday when the Vikings head to Carolina to take on the Panthers.  Both Christian Ponder and Cam Newton entered this season with plenty of people(yours truly included) questioning their value as a high draft pick.  Well Newton seems to be the real deal, and Ponder, while a small sample size, has looked really good.  Both players...

Adrian Peterson leads the NFL in rushing, but the Vikings might save wear-and-tear on their star back by giving the ball to Toby Gerhart more.

Ryan Longwell kicked a 31-yard field goal with 2:43 left in the game to lift the Minnesota Vikings to a 24-21 victory over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Cam Newton put the Panthers (2-6) -in position to tie the game in the final two minutes. He completed a 44-yard pass to Brandon LaFell on fourth-and-15, but Olindo Mare was wide left with a 31-yard field goal attempt with 26 seconds left.

Receiver Percy Harvin and cornerback Antoine Winfield are listed as questionable for the Minnesota Vikings' game against Carolina on Sunday.

Cam Newton has a tried-and-true way to deal with losses and adversity, one that he often shares with reporters: Oct. 30, 2011, after loss to Minnesota Vikings: "At the end of the day, you still have to look in the mirror and ask yourself, 'Are you going to get the job done or what are you going to do?' The saying is, 'Some do, some don't. Some come through in...
