Re: Minnesota Vikings

I am glad to hear that Jackson will be starting at QB this weekend. What else can we lose? We already rushed him into the starting job, lets just keep throwing him into the fire and hopefully he will get better and learn from his mistakes, we can't give up on him after 6 career starts. The team is not gonna make the playoffs, so lets just play the season out and hope that we get rid of Chilldress.

    Jackson's career lives and dies with Childress, and vice versa.

    When they are both run out of town they can seek refuge in Canada.

    probably true. I just think Jackson could be a much better QB than he is right now, if they didn't rush him into being the starter so fast. I also think he could benefit from a way better coach. Chilldress is not a teacher what so ever. I wish we had a veteran QB on our bench or a former QB as a coach so they could teach him along. He doesn't have any of that to benefit from, it's just a horrible situation. We need to get rid of Chilldress and his ineffective west coast offense, and let Jackson be able to throw the ball more, that is what is holding him back.

    The guy can't hit anyone downfield to save his life and misses easy throws on a regular basis and you want him to throw it more? And I am not big on Childress, but before coming to Minnesota he had only developed one QB to be an NFL starter and he did okay with McNabb. When you draft a guy with intentions of making him a franchise QB he generally is starting by his second year.

    I'm curious, but what has Jackson shown to give you any belief he has what it takes to be an NFL quarterback?

    first off the guy barely throws the ball, I don't blame him if he misses a reciever here or there. The only way he can improve as a QB is if you let him throw the ball more. He is very inexpierenced and that is definetly showing, but every good QB in the past and present only got better by getting the chance to open up and throw down the field. Plus when he has thrown this year he has barely thrown any INTs (except for the lions game) for the most part he is 90% mistake free when it come to turning over the ball.

    You asked me what makes me believe he has what it takes to be an NFL QB. Well, I like the fact that he has good awareness of when the pocket is collapsing, he gets out of the pocket and throws it away, he does tend to throw it away for intentional grounding calls fairly often, but at least he isn't throwing INTs instead, that is a mistake a lot of young QBs do, is throw a lot of INTs.

    He hasn't thrown many INTs because he hasn't thrown the ball. His interception to pass ratio is high. And even when he's not turning the ball over there isn't a single pass Jackson has shown he can complete on a consistent basis.

    give him time, Peyton Manning went 3-13 his first year starting. I am not saying he is the next Manning, but just give him time! Vikings fans are the worst because they have no patience, it is irriatating! 99% of them have no clue what they want.

    I'm not a Vikings fan, so patience for success had nothing to do with it. The guy hasn't shown he can make NFL throws at all and I haven't seen anything to suggest he'll succeed. Childress put his ball in Jackson's court since the draft last year and will live and die on that decision.

    No, it's "a shame" we suck.

    And actually, Bollinger didn't look half bad today. He didn't pass too much, but he looked confident when he was out there.

    By the way, it's nice to have Peterson on my fantasy team.

    wow, that game was so fun to be at. 3 NFL records were broken and one Vikings team record. What a thrilling game. I thought the game was gonna take a turn for the worse after the missed field goal return by the Chargers.

    Bollinger should really be the starter for the rest of the year.

    what, just another rumor. I've heard that one before.

    on the side note, I am waiting to hear back from your school Nebraska University, to see if I have been accepted. What a long wait!

    I guess it never crossed my mind.

    And its the University of Nebraska. I'm guessing you applied to Lincoln? If you want any info on the college let me know.

    yeah, University of Nebraska in Lincoln. Yeah, could you hook me up with some info on the college?

    I also just got accepted at Wayne State University (it's about 2 and 1/2 hours north of Lincoln in Nebraska)
