Call it the best hall monitor you could ask for. Prior Lake's Keaton Kaisersatt won the NFL's Take-A-Player to School Contest and had the chance of a lifetime to walk the halls with Minnesota Vikings' Tarvaris Jackson.

Also, Tarvaris Jackson is watching, not playing, as Brett Favre continues to work his magic for the Vikings. His receiving corps is improved with Sidney ... and more »

By Anthony21 When Tarvaris Jackson is getting some third quarter playing time, and it's not because Brett Favre has been knocked out of the game, you know the Vikings have controlled the game and are winning convincingly. That was the case this afternoon, as the Vikings dominated the Seahawks in the fi...

By Sean Jensen The question is whether the Vikings -- with a Super Bowl caliber team -- get an offer attractive enough to shed a player/ players who may have to step into the lineup later in the season. For instance, what if a team makes an offer for Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels? At what point the Viking...

By Sean Jensen Of all the passes attempted this season -- Tarvaris Jackson and Sidney Rice have combined for six attempts -- Favre has attempted at least 10 passes to six different receivers. Bernard Berrian, who leads the team with 19 catches, has been targeted on 33 passes, followed by Rice (27 attempt...

By Herija Green Despite a nice run to reach the playoffs, the Vikings bowed out immediately, dropping a 26-14 decision to the sixth-seeded Eagles. The combination of Tarvaris Jackson and Gus Frerotte struck fear into the hearts of no one, prompting change at the game’s most crucial position. Outside of B...

Jackson is a solid quarterback. So Vikings fans, what would you have: An old quarterback who will only stay with the team for one year and will only come to the Vikings to bring revenge on his old team or bring in a quarterback who is detirmened and will be a great quarterback for years to come?

By danzinski Tarvaris Jackson was already in an awkward position thanks to all the Favre-talk going on…and then Pat Williams made that situation still more uncomfortable by publicly questioning Jackson’s commitment to being a top quarterback.  Now Jackson is trying to defend himself.  The Vikings...

1. Save Brad Childress' job. Former Baltimore Ravens coach, and former Vikings assistant, Brian Billick lost his job by over-committing to QB Kyle Boller. Brad Childress faces the same risk by backing QB Tarvaris Jackson. Heck, Childress may be dead meat already. Childress can save his job b...

By danzinski Brad Childress appears satisfied to arrive in Mankato with Sage Rosenfels and Tarvaris Jackson competing to start at quarterback. He probably figures bringing in Percy Harvin, by acclamation the No. 1 pain in the posterior in last weekend’s draft, will provide enough tension for a head c...

By danzinski I would] line [White] up as a Wildcat with Adrian Peterson.  I think that would give defensive coordinators nightmares. By the way…why not draft Pat White and give him a shot at playing quarterback?  It’s no dumber than thinking Tarvaris Jackson can do the job.)

Tarvaris Jackson and Sage Rosenfels are expected to compete for the starting job in training camp, and John David Booty, a fifth-round pick last year, is likely to spend another season in the No. 3 role. The Vikings will look to add a fourth ...

By danzinski Again, I don’t think Sage meant to denigrate Tarvaris Jackson, the guy he will be competing against for the QB job this training camp.  Sage’s criticism of Tarvaris was, I believe, unconscious.  When he said, “I think there is some untapped potential in this offense,” what he really meant d...

By noreply@blogger.com (vikes geek) While the announcement of Rosenfels' trade to Minnesota came as a surprise to some Vikings' writers, coming so quickly on the heels of head coach Brad Childress' statement last Friday that he wished to open the 2009 season with Gus Frerotte and Tarvaris Jackson competing for the startin...

By noreply@blogger.com (vikes geek) Regarding the play of current starting quarterback Tarvaris Jackson and his poor performance in the clutch during the Vikings' playoff loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Childress provided the following observations for our local scribe:

By noreply@blogger.com (vikes geek) Since the Minnesota Vikings lost at home in the first round of the playoffs to the Philadelphia Eagles, much speculation has centered on the Vikings' plans for starting quarterback next season. That necessary evil, the consequence of an abysmal performance by Tarvaris Jackson when it m...

By Brian McIntyre(noreply@blogger.com) NFC It remains to be seen how Minnesota Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson will handle his first playoff game. Vikings running back Adrian Peterson has been playing with an ankle injury since mid-December. Washington Redskins executive vice president of football operations Vinny C...

By Brian McIntyre(noreply@blogger.com) Minnesota Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson will be tested by Philadelphia's blitz schemes. 20,000 tickets remain for Sunday's Vikings-Eagles game. Vikings head coach Brad Childress is hopeful that Pat Williams will play on Sunday.

By noreply@blogger.com (vikes geek) Following Minnesota's victory on Sunday over the Arizona Cardinals, our resident West-side scribe contended that Minnesota Vikings' head coach Brad Childress was due some apologies for his wisdom in drafting Tarvaris Jackson and for his coaching ability. Neither contention could b...

By Brian McIntyre(noreply@blogger.com) Jackson opened the season as the starter, but struggled as the Vikings began the season 0-2. When Frerotte was injured last Sunday, Jackson stepped in and completed 8-of-10 passes for 105 yards and a touchdown in the Vikings' 20-16 win over the Detroit Lions.

By Ryan Rust The Vikings suffered another painful loss in their home opener this afternoon.  While there is a great deal of blame to be passed around, the ultimate issue is the continued ineffective play of the offense.  The root cause of this is the continued poor play of Tarvaris Jackson, and the quest...

By Ryan Rust I’ve now had a day to process the utter meltdown that I witnessed on the field, yesterday.  As a result, I softened my position on one of the two issues that I cited as causing the Vikings’ struggles.  Tarvaris Jackson has proved that he is not able to pick up the team and win in [...]

By Gonzo QB Tarvaris Jackson QB Gus Frerotte QB John David Booty RB Adrian Peterson RB Chester Taylor RB Maurice Hicks FB Thomas Tapeh FB Jeff Dugan WR Bernard Berrian WR Sidney Rice WR Bobby Wade WR Aundrae Allison WR Robert Ferguson WR Jaymar Johnson TE Visanthe Shiancoe TE Jim Kleinsasser

By Gonzo QB Tarvaris Jackson QB Gus Frerotte QB John David Booty HB Adrian Peterson FB Naufahu Tahi FB Jeff Dugan 1)  They were the wide receivers that the Vikings had when Brad Childress took the reins before the 2006 season. 2)  None of them are drawing a paycheck from the Minnesota Vikings any more.

By Ryan Rust Quarterback The arrival of free-agent backup Gus Ferotte essentially guarantees that Tarvaris Jackson will be handed the starting job in 2008. Personally, I don’t believe this is a bad thing. Jackson showed flashes last season that made me believe he should be given another year at the st...

By Gonzo Vikings' War Cry muses about the Beloved Purple's backup QB situation, and the possibility of J.P. Losman coming to Minnesota.  I'd rather spend a #3 or #4 on Josh Johnson and get someone like Quinn Gray in here to back up Tarvaris Jackson, but I'm not in charge of the team.

By Gonzo What's even more unfortunate is that the Vikings, thanks to Brad Childress' infinite stubbornness and inability to evaluate the progress of his players, don't currently HAVE anything better at the quarterback position to turn to.  There's absolutely no point in playing Kelly Holcomb...

By Gonzo I know that Childress wants to develop Tarvaris Jackson into a great quarterback at the NFL level.  But he has to balance this out with his potential job security.  Zygi Wilf wants to field a winner.  Zygi Wilf also has stadium funding he wants to get approved for the Vikings.  Another 6-10 seas...

By Dave Halprin (Grizz) Last year's starting QB Brad Johnson has signed with Dallas to be our backup. So how is the new guy Tarvaris Jackson looking so far? I also see you recently acquired Kelly Holcomb. What's the QB situation for the Vikes? BTB: You had Chester Taylor last year, now you added rookie RB Adrian Peter...

Vikings' quarterback Tarvaris Jackson finished his play last night with two completions on four attempts. Bollinger equaled those numbers. And, for the night, the Vikings totaled a mere eight completions on eighteen pass attempts.

The Pittsburgh Steelers' preseason couldn't be going much better. Their offense is barely scoring. Brad Johnson and rookie Tarvaris Jackson each threw for a touchdown and the Minnesota Vikings got production from starters and backups alike in beating the Steelers, winning 17-10 Satur...

GAME RECAP THE STATS 9-for-11 The passing statistics for both of the Vikings' top two quarterbacks Saturday. Brad Johnson totaled 71 yards and Tarvaris Jackson 80, and each threw a TD pass. 1-for-7 The passing statistics for Mike McMahon, who entering the preseason was considered the mos...
