Brooks Bollinger was a bust, so the Minnesota Vikings will go back to Tarvaris Jackson and hope he can stay healthy long enough for the team to get a read on whether he will be able to win games for them in the future. "I do feel like coming out of training camp (Jackson) was the best quarterback, so I would say you would probably end up being back with Tarvaris" this week against Oakland, coach Brad Childress told reporters.

Commentary: Jackson has been horrible even when healthy this season, completing a ridiculous 46.4 percent of his passes, with two touchdowns and five interceptions. Although Childress thinks he needs to see Jackson for a stretch of games, the word here is that the guy is not an NFL-caliber starting quarterback.

Fantasy Football Impact: The Vikings are like the old Nebraska teams - dominant in the running game and horrible in the passing game. None of their quarterbacks and none of their receivers are worth a look.
