Frerotte's first start came next week against the 49ers.

The Vikings won 35-7

Gus went 16-for-21 with 267 passing yards 4 TD's and 0 INT's.

Moss had 8 catches for 172 yards and 3 TD's - Terrell Owens had 5 catches for 55 yards 0 TD's and tore into his offensive coordinator on the sideline.

Gus was named the NFC offensive player of the week.

Start #2 for Gus - the Vikings beat the Falcons 39-26. Gus throws 2 TD's to Moss.

That was it for the Gus Frerotte show. He throw 5 TD passes to Moss in his only two Viking Starts - the offense averaged 37 points - they handily won both games - and back to the bench so Duante could lead them to 7 losses in the final 11 weeks of the season and they missed the playoffs.

Jeff George made the pro bowl, won a playoff game, and had that Viking offense going like a machine - Gus Frerotte looked like Dan Marino in his prime - and all Duante could do is put up huge stats but lose close game shootout after close game shootout with his head.

Matt Cassel is a better QB right now than Duante ever was.

Frerotte has completed 54.2 percent of his passes during his career for 19,134 yards and a 74.3 quarterback rating. He's 37-44-1 as a starter.

Cool.

Here he is in the two games he started with Moss - and the only two games I've ever seen him play in as it is.

And off he went to the bench when Duante came back to lead the team to 7 losses in the final 11 games. Losing shoot out after shoot out with dumb mistakes and game management.
