He's better than Jackson. Of course, so's most team's 3rd stringers.

Re: In Gus we Trust

I wish the Skins played the late game so I could go to the Panthers/Vikes game sporting my old Gus jersey.

Nevermind, it's in Minnesota

Re: In Gus we Trust

I'm really not so sure that was a smart move. Starting Frerotte sooner and working in jackson as he progressed would have been smarter. Jackson has an upside, and Frerotte is on the decline and was never all that to start with.

7 teams in 15 years! There's something to be said about his longevity that's for sure.

No question. I can't believe the guy is still in the league, much less that's he's going to be given a chance to start. At this point, I might actually be rooting for him (so long as his interests, of course, don't conflict with mine).

Re: In Gus we Trust

Jackson isn't progressing much as a passer. I think the Vikes definitely have playoff potential if they can get some decent play at QB, and right now Jackson just can't get it done.

Yup, it was tragic to have Johnson go.
