Last night's game is the only one I watched. Now, looking at the two QB's not as a fan, but as someone looking at what they did, and who they did it with. First, no 1st team players were on the field for either QB. That in itself can have an effect on their play. Now, what I saw was a Mannion continuously throwing high or behind his targets. Mond, seemed to me to be more on target, He also looked like he was waiting to long for the plays to develop. He has to decide sooner what to do with the ball. If I had to take one, I'd take Mond. The decision process is something that can be rectified easier than always throwing high and behind, at least in my book. I would love to see what both of them could do with the 1st team.

As of Tuesday, I don't see them cutting Mond. I just don't. Someone would snatch him up in a heartbeat. Mannion is going nowhere. So, my guess is it will be Cousins, Mullens, and Mond after the cuts.

Personally I felt bad for the receivers trying to make the club. How would you like to try and make a NFL franchise with those two QB's throwing you the ball?

That would suck!

Most of Mond's passes were on target. If the ball hits you in your chest and you can't catch it, you don't get a better thrown ball.

You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you are not capable of great violence, you are not peaceful, you are harmless.

Take this with a big grain of salt, but Darren Wolfson and Judd Zuglad were reporting a rumor that Cousins lobbied for Mannion to make the 53 man roster as our 3rd QB. Apparently the front office was too concerned about losing a young player on waivers to keep a third QB... good for them if true!

Yep, much easier to retire to Oregon from Seattle.

Makes you wonder if there was another team or two interested. Pure insanity.

Pfff. The guy stunk in preseason, got demoted from #2 right past #3 into unemployment. He is just giving himself self-affirmation here.. "had a coupla options..."
