Ponder, Vikings could increase passing workload in 2012
Will the Vikings ask Christian Ponder to air it out next year? When comparing Ponder’s workload to his draft class peers, the Vikings already did in 2011.
In an unscientific breakdown of passing attempts among the top-four rookie quarterbacks from 2011 (not counting Jake Locker, who hasn’t started a game), Ponder is tied with Cam Newton for the most attempts per game. I say unscientific because the stats aren’t as simple as “games played” for Ponder and Blaine Gabbert, who didn’t play a full season. For example, Gabbert technically played in 15 games, but his first game was a fourth-quarter relief appearance and he also was benched in the fourth quarter of another game. So, for the sake of this breakdown, we’ve got Gabbert playing in 14 games

Vikings | Christian Ponder happy with Matt Kalil selection
Minnesota Vikings QB Christian Ponder said he is excited with the addition of OT Matt Kalil in the NFL Draft. Ponder feels Kalil will provide the protection he needs to go through all of his reads. 'It is huge,' Ponder said. 'A lot of time last year, it didn't necessarily have to do with the protection. A lot of times I wasn't comfortable getting to my third, fourth reads, checking the ball down. Instead of just checking it down when a guy is wide open, I'd just run ... That's something I have to get away from. It's easy to break the habit. It's just going to make it so much better having full confidence in the protection.'
