Amid the Vikings‘ quarterback controversy of who should start, Daunte Culpepper or Brad Johnson, I thought we might take a breath and a step back to look at a bit Viking history in the form of Hall of Fame quarterback Fran Tarkenton.
Tarkenton was an amazing quarterback. Nicknamed "The Scrambler," he was the forerunner of current mobile quarterbacks such as Daunte, Donovan McNabb, and Michael Vick. As the following NFL Films segments show, he had an amazing ability to elude the pass rush and buy time for his receivers to get open.
