Childress: Jackson’s knee bruised

Judd Zulgad from the Star-Tribune is reporting that the knee injury to Tarvaris Jackson is a bruise. Jackson currently has a brace on the knee.

Hopefully it's nothing more serious than that.

I would rather have syphilis

than Brett Favre.

You can charitably classify that as a “no.” (-:

Sounding off.....

Between skywalker and ESPN blog by a guy who doesn’t even have a history of following the Vikings… I was compelled to sound off.

There were two things Tavaris needed to do:

Get rid of the jump passes: He’s definitely looking better in the pocket. That goes without saying.

Stay healthy: Last season, Tavaris missed four games and left four games early due to injury. Seeing this happen again already is not a good sign.

Had it been a REAL GAME....

He would have come back into the game… it was a minor bruise and he was walking the sidelines with Ice then a Brace. Nothing major at all; just keeping over cautious.

He actually hurt it on the play prior to the passing play when he scrambled out for a few yards; he needs to take a lesson from the book of Culpepper learn what NOT to do…..and learn to SLIDE!!!

Jackson has been looking GREAT so far and I expect big things from him if he can do the little things to keep himself healthy then he will be fun to watch.

BTW Skywalker – PLEASE don’t start the BS about Farve!! I KNEW that crap would start as soon as Jackson left the game.

Personally

i think the vikes will make it to the superbowl with T-Jack. All my friends disagree with me. Favre is done tbh. It was really just a little playful ribbing :D

That makes me feel a little better… but not much.

T-Jax Injury Update

MRI has revealed he has a sprained MCL. He should be ready to go in Green Bay, no problem.

He has been sharp and can continue to work in practice; so he will only lose the snaps on the field…which I honestly don’t really care about. He’ll be ready week 1 and I’m sure he will take away from this and learn to SLIDE next time.
