    Vikings' Holcomb likely to start for injured Jackson

    The official source for NFL news, video highlights, fantasy football, game-day coverage, schedules, stats, scores and more.



    Holcomb, acquired late in the preseason in a trade with Philadelphia to provide more experience behind the young Jackson, has been working to get acclimated with the Vikings and appears to have leapfrogged incumbent backup Brooks Bollinger on the depth chart.

    Wow, and you thought WE had a bad QB situation...

    Yeah, CAPTAIN CHECKDOWN! I'm sure he'll tear it up!
    Good riddance Fairchild. Of course, the knowledge of your departure will only make TE more hateable than the typical Bills QB. Good luck, hope we don't mess you up like JP.

        The Answer is trying to stay away from the QB threads for a while until things cool down and this team hopefully starts playing better.

        However look for The Holcombator to have a nice showing this weekend in KC - he plays well and he will make it difficult for Jackson to regain his starting job when healthy.

        The Answer is pulling for the wily veteran regardless and would love him to have a season like Jeff Garcia did last year for philly - speaking of the Eagles, looks like McNabb is finished - think they are going to regret trading The Holcomb now?

                He technically beat him out the first year till Mularkey started playing roster games.

                  Well, it's gonna slow down Sydney Rice's bid to be rookie of the year.

                    Well, if Tarvaris Jackson ever had a chance at a promising career....it's gonna be gone now.

                    The Summary for Holcomb should read..."career QB Killer"

                    Couch, Losman and now Jackson.

                    You all know that once Holcomb gets his mediocre ass into the lineup, he'll divide up the lockeroom and politic as much as he can to keep the job as starter. I feel bad for Vikings fans.

                      Rice's 2 catches for 10 yards this year may hurt him a wee bit more

                          Holcomb never really got on the field as a Colt, so that chance never arose.

                            This thread won't be funny when Holcomb puts up better numbers this weekend than JP. He's got a very good chance of doing it.
