    Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Greg Jennings has been quarterback Christian Ponder's biggest supporter this offseason. Jennings' message: Have patience with a player who hasn't had great weapons.

    "Every quarterback, you've got to give him time (to develop)," Jennings said Tuesday on ESPN, via the St. Paul Pioneer Press. "Tell me this, right now: Brett Favre, receivers around him. Aaron Rodgers, receivers around him. Christian Ponder ... receivers around him."

    The implication is that Ponder hasn't had much help at receiver. We'd argue that Jennings is a downgrade from the departed Percy Harvin and tight end John Carlson is developing into a Pro Bowl tight end.

    Ponder needs possession receivers, not speedsters

    This ranks on par with Cam Newton's 'fan' comment.
