Vikings camp preview: Is Tarvaris good enough?

This QB could hold many fantasy fortunes in his hand. The Vikings have become a justifiably chic pick to contend for both the NFC North crown and the NFC title in '08, thanks to a major acquisition along the ...

Forget about High Maintenance Brett 288 Favre. We have our quarterback and his name is Tavaris Jackson. Next subject.

Isn't he an unknown? Why would anyone pick the Vikes to have a good year? One wag predicts the Super Bowl, makes no sense to me..

That would be TARVARIS Jackson. He won't be a great fantasy pick cause he won't put up monster numbers, but he'll be just fine where it counts.

no, he won't. well, till they put 11 in the box. maybe tj can have a good game then. he sure couldn't with 8 in the box. i doubt there's 6 nfl qb's who would have trouble in that situation. unfortunately, 4 played for the vikes last year. Can you figure out what would have hppened with brad johnson ( the old retread) or even gus ferrotte playing qb last year for the vikes with everyone stacked to stop AP?

No one was defending the pass & tj had one of the worst pass ratings i've ever seen. read it again: no one tried to stop the pass - tj sucked donkey dong.

The 2008 season will be the first of eight pro bowls for Jackson. You guys don't understand how great he is.

You guys also don't know how stupid "avant" is.
He's so obnoxious and dumb, most all of us that have been here a while refuse to respond to him.

Thanks.
One thing John David Booty has in his favor: I don't know how the trade went, but reading a Packer forum, the Green Bay fans were livid that the Packer management had done something that would benefit the Minnesota Vikings. Packer posters were swearing that if Booty does anything at all, they will not let it go.
So I would like to see JD Booty get the starting job.

i never actually thought about about that. i like t-jack and all but it would be nice to see JDB become a good QB for the vikes just to piss those packer fans off.

It's easy to do.
We banned (Meaning: none of us that have been here for a while will respond to him) the troll from Las Vegas some months ago.
It's working pretty good too.
So just ignore him and he'll go away sooner or later.

We don't respond like Fran says but, it's perfectly acceptable to "judge it" and click on "clueless" "nuts" and "spam".

Tj is going to be surprising a lot of people this year. The only people who think that he will be consistant this year are those of us who have been viking fans for a long time and actually pay attention to player progression and little things like that!

SKOL VIKES!!!

You're right about a lot of us having confidence in him. It's further encouraging to hear his fellow teammates say the same thing.
Especially guys like Winfield. I'm pretty sure if Winfield didn't like what he was seeing so far this season, he wouldn't have had any comment on Jackson. Instaed he had some pretty good praise for Jackson.

I'm as comfortable with Jackson at this point as I've ever been and feel he's going to lead us into the playoffs.
