Right now, if i had to pick between Tjoke and Ponder for another 2 years, I would go with Tjoke. Cause Tjoke didnt continue to get worse. He was just sparatic. At least he had a few ups with the downs.

Ponder's had some ups already too. How quickly they are forgotten. I know it's rough and we have a tendency to forget how bad Jackson was (most of us prefer to forget that ugly period, myself included), but I'm convinced Ponder has a higher ceiling. Of course, that's not saying much. And it's not saying how much higher that ceiling is.

I know that Ponder has been playing like a poor mans Rex Grossman but I am not ready to completely throw him under the bus. He needs to get his confidence back and make better reads on his wrs. That being said I think the wide outs could be better route runners.
