From Judd Zulgad of The Star Tribune: Want to know how Gus Frerotte felt as he watched Tarvaris Jackson struggle in the Vikings playoff loss to Philadelphia on Sunday? All you need to do is read this piece by Michael Silver of Yahoo! This isn’t the first time in recent weeks that Silver has gotten some good stuff from Frerotte, the two are good friends, but the point is Frerotte is speaking the truth and it’s pretty interesting. “I just don’t know what to think right now,” Frerotte told Silver on Sunday night. “It was a very frustrating experience, because I felt like I should’ve been the one playing. That might sound selfish, but I think I would’ve given us the best chance to win. I’m going home to St. Louis [on Monday] to be with my family and figure out where things stand, but the way things played out at the end really makes me question things.” Frerotte has a two-year contract with the Vikings but given his frustration level right now it’s a safe bet that he isn’t coming back. There’s a few pretty interesting nuggets from some unidentified Vikings. Included is one player who told Silver that late in the game “our sideline was in total disarray.”

I think if Statue Gus had played in that game, he would have been hauled off in a stretcher. It was plain our O schemes could not handle Philly's firepower. At least TJ has some mobility to buy another half second or so.
