They've won the last 2 weeks so let's see how long they can keep this up... I think they're going to get smashed when they play a REAL team.

Yes I agree however, remember that Tarvaris was benched for his inability to move the ball and if you're the coach and your job is on the line...well, just look at his stats:
Tarvaris Jackson 0-2
@Green Bay (L-19-24) 16/35 178 yds. 1-TD and 1-INT. AP's numbers 19/103 1-TD
vs.Indianapolis (L-15-18) 14/24 130 yds. 0-TD and 0-INT. AP's numbers 29/160 0-TD
Just a little bit of a passing game and they win which they should have regardless.
Gus Frerotte 3-1
vs.Carolina (W-20-10) 16/28 204 yds. 1-TD and 1-INT. AP's numbers 17/77 0-TD
@Tennessee (L-17-30) 25/43 266 yds. 0-TD and 1-INT. AP's numbers 18/80 2-TD's
@New Orleans (W-30-27) 19/36 222 yds. 1-TD and 0-INT. AP's numbers 21/32 0-TD...atrocious
vs. Detroit (W-12-10) 18/33 296 yds. 1-TD and 1-INT. AP's numbers 25/111 0-TD
So looking at the numbers, none of these guys are the answer however, if you're looking to get to the playoffs, Gus gives you your best shot as experience will play a role but really, they need to draft a good QB.
