Minnesota Vikings traded for Houston Texans QB Sage Rosenfels for a 4th round pick which has some fans crying foul. Can you blame them after striking gold with RB Adrian Peterson they have had to endure a failed experiment by the name of Tarvaris Jackson.
Rosenfels is no Peyton Manning but he is far better than Jackson. Rosenfels has a career completion percentage over 60 percent. He has been prone to turnovers but when he plays smart he is lethally accurate. Sage is just what the doctor ordered for Vikings fans.
Even though Jackson played well down the stretch, coach Brad Childress felt the need to upgrade at QB this offseason. Childress drafted Jackson with a highly controversial second round "reach" of a pick and has been criticized for Jackson's performance. If Sage doesn't pan out, is would spell the end of Childress's reign of terror.
Although, I believe that Childress should be shown the door, the addition of Sage will give Childress a "stay of execution"!
