The Facts:
HC Brad Childress seemed to take another step toward committing to Jackson as the Vikings' starting quarterback for the 2008 season. "I'm committed to him coming into training camp," Childress said. "His record is 8-4 in 12 starts."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Speaking at the Scouting Combine, Childress was asked if that meant he isn't looking for any free agent help at the QBk position. According to Star Tribune staffer Judd Zulgad, the Vikings have been mentioned as having interest in former Dolphins QB Trent Green. "I would just say globally, about our football team, there are a bunch of different positions that we're looking for help on. Sixty quarterbacks played in the NFL last year, our guy missed four games. So you'd better have somebody who is a viable candidate because if your guy breaks his leg who is the next guy?" In other words, don't be surprised if the Vikings bring in some help.
