Last night the Vikings ended their preseason with a victory over Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos.
The story of the game, as usual, was centered around quarterback play and there wasn’t many positives to take away. Tarvaris Jackson missed on his first six passes, and ended up two for eight and gaining only two yards. [...]
Over the last three pre-season games, Viking fans got a good glimpse of what life without Brett Favre might resemble. Quite sobering really. While Tarvaris Jackson and Sage Rosenfels are very capable, even excellent NFL backup quarterbacks, they are not, (and this is the part that might be a shock to our readers)… Brett Favre.
So [...]

The Vikings decided to cut their afternoon practice short today, but that doesn’t mean [...]
For the conspiracy theorists of the group, here is one for you to chew on for awhile.
PFT points out that the Vikings Fan Shop has reduced the price of a Tarvaris Jackson jersey to $39.95. That would be the same price as many Matt Birk, Darren Sharper, and Chester Taylor jerseys whom are all on [...]
Apparently TJ doesn’t care if Favre skips camp (a list that now includes JA, AD, Berrian, Rice, Pat, Shank, Erin Henderson, and several others). I would say its probably in TJ’s best interest to get all the reps he can, especially with the newest camp superhero (Joe Webb) tearing up the headlines from OTAs.

In an earlier post, I talked about how the Vikings quarterbacks (not counting Brett Favre, who was absent from minicamp) stacked up against each other this weekend. Here is my ammended depth chart for the position:
1. Tarvaris Jackson
2. Joe Webb
3. R.J. Archer
4. Sage Rosenfels
That’s right, according to Judd Zulgad of Access Vikings, Archer actually scooped [...]
Mike Wobschall of Vikings.com is doing a fantastic job of keeping us updated on how OTAs are going. OTAs are not much of an indication for how the regular season will play out, but certain individuals can separate themselves from the competition in these OTAs and get a jump start on training camp battles.
It sounds like Chris [...]
Tarvaris Jackson is once again an official member of the Minnesota Vikings.
According to Judd Zulgad, the reserve quarterback has signed his $1.176 million tender.
While it seems likely that the Vikings would like to hold Jackson’s rights for at least one more year at such a low price tag, but having Jackson sign the tender does [...]
