The Minnesota Vikings are expected announce today who their starting quarterback will be this Sunday against Detroit.

Last Sunday, starter Brad Johnson was benched after throwing four interceptions. When second-stringer Brooks Bollinger hurt his shoulder, rookie Tarvaris Jackson was inserted at quarterback. There is speculation, that despite his inexperience, Jackson might get a chance to start this week.

Cathy Wurzer asked Steve Walsh for some insight into what Jackson might be facing. He played quarterback for Cretin Durham Hall in St. Paul and the University of Miami. Walsh also spent 11 years in the NFL.
