Matt Cassel came in and started for the Minnesota Vikings and gave them their first win of the season in Wembley Stadium in London, England. Cassel played well too, he completed 16 of 25 passes for 248 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. He was only sacked once and had a 123.4 rating, the QBR though was a average 52 though.

That might have Vikings fans expecting a change under center, but head coach Leslie Frazier said that Christian Ponder is still this team’s quarterback.

Frazier did back of his comments and leave himself a little wiggle room.
