Ponder, Vikes stun San Fran.

Christian Ponder didn't flinch against that feisty, swarming San Francisco defense. Minnesota's flourishing young quarterback engineered a stunning victory after two of his more-decorated division peers fell well short. Ponder threw two touchdown passes to tight end Kyle Rudolph and ran for another score to help the Vikings hand the 49ers their first defeat, 24-13 on Sunday.
