Jackson airs it out

The Vikings put QB Tavaris Jackson's right arm to work with 12 pass plays in a row and keeping him in the entire first quarter.
Jackson was 8 out of 11 for 118 yards, 1 td. and no interceptions.
Childress said he wanted to get Jackson in a throwing rhythm and tune up his protection from the offensive line. Jackson had plenty of time.

Airing it out: Jackson has smooth preseason debut - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

Not bad. I still think Jackson will be ok.

Yeah, not bad. A good start for the kid. Good confidence builder. Let's see if he can keep it going, improve on this first performance.

Yea, I would like to see some more of that in the upcoming pre season games and that would be a really good sign.

Re: Jackson airs it out

This is good. I wanted him to do well and get the starting job. Nice start, but this is the preseason, you know? If he keeps doing well like that. He'll have the starting job, no doubt.

Thats the problem. He has the starting job. So if he doesnt do well, the Vikings are in deep trouble.

Re: Jackson airs it out

Its a good thing they have a decent backup vet. Ferotte may not have as much speed, but hes more accurate
