I also feel that he's served more than enough penalty, and should be allowed to continue his life and football career.pacifist vikinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02639283781758286098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23140411.post-50948043032652128002009-07-27T22:55:37.168-05:002009-07-27T22:55:37.168-05:00How would you feel if the vikes signed Vick?

He's rarely been asked to throw the ball beyond 10 yards and rarely thrown more than quick slants to Bobby Wade and screen passes to Chester Taylor. <br /><br />You could argue he was rushed into starting duty too soon and that he will improve. But Jackson appears to be a guy who, at best, can beat the Detroits some of the time but can't beat the Pittsburghs anytime. Remember how confused and ineffective he looked against the Eagles in the second half (and most of the first half)? Did he look like a guy you could count on to make big plays in pressure situations and win games for the Vikings? <br /><br />Perhaps Rosenfels is no different. But I'd at least like to find out because I know what we've got in Jackson.Darren Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07280352819585972328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23140411.post-78668393983083584892009-07-27T14:06:36.843-05:002009-07-27T14:06:36.843-05:00Other than a few good games against poor pass defe...Other than a few good games against poor pass defenses, Tarvaris Jackson has been a very inaccurate passer. The reason I think Rosenfels will be a major upgrade is accuracy: Rosenfels is a career 62.5% passer (65.5% in the last three seasons), while Jackson is a 58.4% passer (and he's frequently wildly inaccurate). Rosenfels also has a higher TD% than Jackson (5.3 to 3.8), and higher yards per attempts than Jackson (7.4 to 6.6). Yes, he has had more turnovers: a serious concern. But when you look at the statistics, there is good reason to believe that Rosenfels is an upgrade over Jackson.pacifist vikinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02639283781758286098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23140411.post-79577267669929224492009-07-27T12:42:57.149-05:002009-07-27T12:42:57.149-05:00Sage Rosenfels had one of the best wide recievers ...Sage Rosenfels had one of the best wide recievers in the game today. He played just as many games as Tarvaris (Tarvaris technically "played" in nine games, but three of them he only took like one snap in) Rosenfels even started one more game than Jackson. Yet he turned the ball over more, and threw less touchdowns, than Tarvaris...even with weapons like Andre Johnson and Steve Slaton (which, Slaton is no AD, but Andre Johnson is head and shoulders above any sort of recieving threat we have) I really really don't understand why people think Sage would even be an upgrade over Tarvaris. Tarvaris isn't the long-term answer at QB, but the pile of trash and incompetence that is Rosenfels isn't either.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23140411.post-2068113075822091672009-07-25T11:31:32.425-05:002009-07-25T11:31:32.425-05:00Yeah, but last year the QB combo was pretty close ...Yeah, but last year the QB combo was pretty close to horseshit, and they still won 10 games. <br /><br />So there's a pretty good shot at a title with Rosenfels, and I won't have to sign up for heavy therapy to get over 15 years of hating Brett Favre.Samayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09558032949167581087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23140411.post-22122072935421690772009-07-24T20:24:07.656-05:002009-07-24T20:24:07.656-05:00i think the vikes will win the superbowl anywayi think the vikes will win the superbowl anywayAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
