Derek Anderson Feeling Minnesota? Viking QB Sprains MCL

Robert CobbAug 1, 2009

Browns Backers, 

Your wish of seeing Derek Anderson leaving Cleveland could be coming true sooner than you think. According to ESPN, Minnesota Vikings starting QB Tavaris Jackson sprained his MCL in training camp and could miss six to eight weeks. 

The injury occurred when defensive lineman Letroy Guion fell at his feet and rolled over his leg during an 11-on-11 drill. Jackson folded to the field in pain as trainers rushed to check on him. but was able to walk off on his own power.

This could be a major setback for Minnesota whom many see as a Super Bowl contender with All-Pro RB Adrian Peterson, Chester Taylor and the "Williams Wall" defensive line and after their failed attempt to land "retired" QB Brett Favre. The Vikings must now make due with journeyman QB Sage Rosenfels, which brings up the possibility of either reinstated QB Michael Vick or Cleveland Browns QB, Derek Anderson landing in the Twin Cities.  

Derek Anderson would be a great fit for the Vikings and their system as he would not be required to try and win a game on his own and can just hand the ball off to Adrian Peterson. He would also have a top-flight reeiver in Bernard Berrian and Florida rookie Percy Harvin to go along with premier TE in Visanthe Shiancoe

And this would also clarify the Cleveland QB situation once and for all, Quinn can make the Browns his team without Derek Anderson looming over his shoulder, like Brett Ratliff is ever a threat, seriously?   

Stay tuned.
