[...] Pat Williams recently said in an interview that he feels like Tarvaris Jackson needs to work a little harder. He did conclude, though, by saying that if Jackson steps it up a bit, he could be a “great” QB in the league. (Source: THE VIKING AGE) [...]

i stand by my comments about fran. i hated him when he played. but i have to say that he was a “little giant” in the lores of football fame. nowhere has it ever been seen that some one of his stature could play at the level he did in a game basically of giants. his records are phenominal when you put a tape to it. i repect fran tarkenton to the utmost. he’s a winner at any level in my book, trophies, championships, or not. if he says something about a qb, then i would listen. he has paid the price to talk, right or wrong. no-one can ever agrue that fran does’nt know anything about the position of qb, winning, or losing. so why can’t he speak of them. and in the case of brett farve, he is right for the most part, but did go a little over the top with some of the name calling. but again i still think that fran, as well as the rest of us, are sick of this maybe i will shit, maybe i won’t. if i was a kid a football team and another was acting this way, i’d pop him in the mouth as well. pat williams is a big dumb kid, thats already been proven. so he’s the last person i’m going to listen to. but if fran comes out and says something, there must be something to it then right??? how many times has fran ever done this in the past. ? i see this as frans way of saying “come on already”

i can’t disagree. i got my own problems in dallas to worry about too, my friend. we can’t seem to win shit with good talent either. it just seems that farve would be great for minny, but if he becomes too much of a distraction, divides the team, and causes your young guys to loose the drive to be the starter if they think that they have to keep looking over there shoulder, than thats a problem. thats what fran is pissed about. my uncle has said that farve needs to “shit or get off the pot”. this comes from a avid viking fan. yes he needs time, but the vikings are at a point where they need some answers as to his commitment. thats where the packers were. they had a good young prospect in rodgers, so why wait on someone who says he’s retired and then when he sees the packers are moving on, says “hey wait a minute”. fran is right about that point. and he’s right about the fact that to many times farve HAS cost his teams to loose in a bad decision. it comes with the position, and there does’nt seem to be anyone better to comment on it then fran tarkenton.
