Maybe...over the past 4 seasons Frerotte was:

352/665 (53%) for 4037 (6.0 YPA), 25 TD, 25 INT

That doesn't even compare well to other journeyman vets who started the year as backups. Take Brian Griese:

524/804 (65%) for 5791 (7.2 YPA), 38 TD, 33 INT

For all the preseason grousing about the Patriots QB depth, any one of their 3 QBs would have been a starter for the Vikings!

Frerotte may not be good but he's in a decent situation with a killer running game and some talent at WR. Not sure if he'll be successful but Jackson sure wasn't so it's time to look around. With the offense around him it's possible he'll do alright.

Their O-Line and D-Line are awesome. Teams are going to have a hell of time dealing with that once they all start playing like a team, and based on what I saw Sunday, they are getting there.

The problem here is Jackson is a project that getting utilized too early. The kid has the skill sets but he needs alot of work.

Vince Young is in the same boat.

It's amazing that people can't figure out how good Aaron Rogers and Tony Romo are as "young qb's" and don't realize the time it takes to develop them.

We should also cut out guys a little slack on drafting a qb to develop.

A week too late for me.

The one game I really wanted them to win this season was against the Colts and they blew it.

Having both the Colts/Chargers at 0-2 right now would feel great.

Posting that in this forum is futile.
A majority of Patsfans believe that rookie O'Connell was the answer when Brady went down.

They should have signed Chad Pennington.
