The Facts:
Childress and Jackson met Thursday morning at Winter Park, and while Childress would not reveal the specifics of the discussion, he said it would "probably be pretty good" for Jackson to assume he is the favorite to start. Childress, however, called it a "fluid situation" and said he had yet to evaluate his options in either free agency or the draft.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Although Childress failed to definitively clarify his quarterback situation during a year-end news conference Thursday, Star Tribune staffer Kevin Seifert suggests Jackson seems likely to get another year to establish himself as the Vikings' long-term starter. But Childress stressed an improved passing game will be a priority. The Vikings ranked No. 28 among NFL teams in passing yardage while setting new franchise lows in attempts (432), completions (249) and touchdown passes (12).
