December 1, 2008 Gus Frerotte was knocked out when he sustained a blow to the back of the head (compliments of Adewale Ogunleye) in Sunday night's outing with the rival Bears, according to the Star Tribune.
Our View:He was able to finish the game and lead the Vikings to a win, but will be evaluated for post-concussion symptoms during the week. The club has a favorable match-up against the winless Lions in Week 14.
November 30, 2008 Gus Frerotte completed 16-of-25 pass attempts for 210 yards, one touchdown and one interception. He also had one touchdown on the ground in Week 13.
Our View:Of course, 99 of Frerotte's 210 passing yards came on one play, but he still had a very good game relative to expectations.
November 30, 2008 Gus Frerotte exited Sunday's game in the second quarter after being pushed from behind to the ground by Bears defensive end Adewale Ogunleye. Frerotte was able to walk off the field under his own power and returned on the following drive.
Our View:There was no word on the particular injury. Frerotte may have just had the wind knocked out of him.
November 23, 2008 Gus Frerotte exited the game against Jacksonville in the third quarter with an undisclosed injury.
Our View:Tarvaris Jackson has replaced Frerotte in the lineup. No additional information is currently available.
November 9, 2008 Gus Frerotte completed 15-of-28 passes for 151 yards with two touchdowns against three interceptions in the Week 10 victory over Green Bay.
Our View:Don't look now, but Frerotte has thrown multiple touchdown passes in each of his last four starts. On the down side, he has thrown 11 interceptions during this timeframe. However, if your league doesn't subract points for those errant tosses, then Frerotte is a serviceable starter in favorable passing matchups.
