"We are really excited to bring Matt in here to compete with Tarvaris."
-- Pete Carroll, Seahawks coach

I bet that Tarvaris Jackson is just thrilled about this.

Coach Pete Carroll released a statement through the team regarding the acquisition: 



I really liked Tarvaris, but the kid just could never quite put it together.

My guess at this point is that Jackson will start the season, but Flynn will end up as the starter.

That is what "did in" Chilly, far more than all the other b.s. cited by most Vikes fans, imo-

T.J.'s inconsistency hosed Colonel Klink, who is probably a better coach than anyone thinks. I know he is a smart man that did some "dumb things". Those dumb things would have been left without so much scrutiny if Jackson had panned out better. I personally do not blame Chilly for trying. I saw it to my satisfaction in Jackson.

As to the signing- If Bush hits the trail, the Pack should get a 3rd rd. compensatory. This deal wasn't sweet enough for Flynn for that to happen for the Pack.

Some members may know I want that to happen. I don't want that motherfucker in coverage anymore. I do watch sometimes. (lol, Kev)

QBs don't change their character. If he isn't an accurate QB to start with, he never will be one. Specially with athletic and highly mobile QBs. If they don't also have accuracy, the athleticism can hide the problem. But in the long run, accuracy is what makes a QB. Mobile or not.
