Vikings rookie quarterback Christian Ponder wants to be the Vikings starting QB week 1, but he knows he has to earn it.
"My view is that I was picked no. 12, they beleive in me, and I beleive in myself", Ponder said. "From the time that I got picked, my mindset was I'm going in to take the starting job. I have to earn it first, but my mindset is I'm going in and hopefully starting from day 1".
There will probably be an "open competition" between Ponder and Joe Webb, and maybe a veteran QB if they bring one in, but I have little doubt that Ponder will end up starting day 1.
