As week eight begins, the Vikings play host to the Bucs in a critical game for Minnesota. Christian Ponder can make a major statement if he leads his team to a win on Thursday night that he can be a franchise quarterback.

Tampa Bay is not out of the running yet but needs a win tonight to stay in the race.
