02:01 PM ET 11.05 | The Vikings have not considered benching Christian Ponder despite two miserable showings from the Minnesota quarterback. "I really haven't thought about pulling him for a game and taking him out for a series or anything like that," Vikings head coach Leslie Frazier said. Ponder has 58 and 63 yards passing in two of his last three games, along with four interceptions to just two touchdowns. This all comes after he was one of the most efficient passers to start the season.

Or in other words, Ponder is the only respectable option that they have. Webb is not scaring anyone.

If Ponder skid continues maybe you need to have thoughts Frazier because he could cost you your job.

Yep. Also it is still too soon to declare Ponder either a success or a failure; keep playing him, and by the end of the season you may know whether he is a keeper or you need to choose again.
