“BrettMinnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier is saying that the Vikings receivers haven't been able to hold onto the balls new guy Bret Favre is throwing, according to the St. Paul Pioneer Press.

Apparently Favre is throwing a lot harder than Tarvaris Jackson(notes) and Sage Rosenfels(notes) were and the players aren't used to it.

Good thing Favre has a slight rotator-cuff tear or those throws might be even harder.

"He has more velocity (than other quarterbacks) on the football and guys have got to get used to catching the ball," Frazier told the paper.

    That's strange because defensive backs have no trouble holding on to his passes.
