Jan. 6 10:10 AM PT11:10 AM MT12:10 PM CT1:10 PM ET18:10 GMT2:10 AM 北京时间11:10 AM MST1:10 PM EST12:10 PM CT22:10 UAE13:10 16:10 - Ponder's strong finish to the regular season may have gone a long way toward solidifying his spot as the starting quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings. The offense's dreadful performance in the playoff game against Green Bay with him on the sideline probably didn't hurt his standing, either.
Analysis: Ponder was a late scratch Saturday night because of a bruised triceps and backup Joe Webb was unable to get anything going in a 24-10 loss that ended Minnesota's surprising season. If the Vikings make any moves at quarterback, it could be to add a veteran backup to Ponder.
Jan. 5 3:07 PM PT4:07 PM MT5:07 PM CT6:07 PM ET23:07 GMT7:07 AM 北京时间4:07 PM MST6:07 PM EST5:07 PM CT3:07 UAE (+1)18:07 21:07 - Ponder is inactive for Minnesota's wild-card playoff game against the Green Bay Packers because of a right elbow injury.
Analysis: The surprise announcement about 90 minutes before Saturday's game means Joe Webb will start at quarterback for the Vikings. Ponder was hurt when Packers safety Morgan Burnett delivered a jarring hit on a blitz when the teams played last Sunday. Ponder finished the game with a career-high 120.2 passer rating and three touchdowns in the 37-34 win.
Jan. 4 12:03 PM PT1:03 PM MT2:03 PM CT3:03 PM ET20:03 GMT4:03 AM 北京时间1:03 PM MST3:03 PM EST2:03 PM CT0:03 UAE (+1)15:03 18:03 - The Minnesota Vikings have listed Ponder as questionable for their playoff game on Saturday against Green Bay.
Analysis: Ponder was limited in practice all week with a bruised right elbow. He hurt it when it hit a Packers helmet on the follow-through on Sunday, and he remained in the game to finish one of the best performances of his career.
Jan. 2 1:18 PM PT2:18 PM MT3:18 PM CT4:18 PM ET21:18 GMT5:18 AM 北京时间2:18 PM MST4:18 PM EST3:18 PM CT1:18 UAE (+1)16:18 19:18 - Ponder is dealing with a sore right elbow that has been limiting him in practice this week as they prepare for a playoff game at Green Bay.
Analysis: Coach Leslie Frazier says he isn't concerned with Ponder's ability to play in the game on Saturday. Frazier says he expects Ponder to ramp it up in practice on Thursday and be ready to go for the third game this season between the division rivals.
Dec. 31 8:16 PM PT9:16 PM MT10:16 PM CT11:16 PM ET4:16 GMT12:16 AM 北京时间9:16 PM MST11:16 PM EST10:16 PM CT8:16 UAE23:16 2:16 - Ponder helped the Vikings clinch a playoff spot by going 16 of 28 for 234 yards and three touchdowns in Minnesota's victory against Green Bay on Sunday.
Analysis: In a season in which Ponder has often been maligned for dragging down the Vikings' offense, he came through in a big way in Minnesota's most important game.
Dec. 24 11:57 AM PT12:57 PM MT1:57 PM CT2:57 PM ET19:57 GMT3:57 AM 北京时间12:57 PM MST2:57 PM EST1:57 PM CT23:57 UAE14:57 17:57 - Ponder capped a big week for himself with a 23-6 upset of the Texans on Sunday.
Analysis: Ponder, who got married on Monday, was 16 of 30 for 174 yards to help the Vikings pile up 345 yards. He finished with seven rushes for 48 yards - 14 more yards rushing than the Texans had. "Christian had a terrific day throughout, playing with a lot of poise, a lot of control - he did all the things we needed," coach Leslie Frazier said.
Dec. 3 12:54 PM PT1:54 PM MT2:54 PM CT3:54 PM ET20:54 GMT4:54 AM 北京时间1:54 PM MST3:54 PM EST2:54 PM CT0:54 UAE (+1)15:54 18:54 - Minnesota Vikings coach Leslie Frazier says he is sticking with Christian Ponder as the team's starting quarterback, even after Ponder's struggles in a loss to Green Bay. Frazier says he is concerned about sending mixed messages to the rest of his players by continuing to play Ponder. But the coach thinks Ponder will bounce back.
Analysis: Frazier says he thinks it is important to have an established No. 1 quarterback, and he still believes Ponder is that guy. But Ponder sure didn't look like it in a 23-14 loss to the Packers on Sunday. Ponder completed 12 of 25 passes for 119 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions deep in Packers territory. Despite the poor play, Frazier says he never considered going to backup Joe Webb in the game.

Analysis: Spielman says "I have full, 100 percent belief that Christian Ponder's going to be our quarterback heading into the future." Ponder has been up and down this year and twice failed to throw for more than 65 yards in a game. But he had a nice bounce-back last week in a win over Detroit that moved the Vikings to 6-4.

Analysis: The second-year quarterback has been bothered by a minor injury to his right knee, and he got up slowly a couple of times against the Seahawks.But Frazier said Ponder hasn't complained about the knee and doesn't believe it's a problem.
