Easy.

That's a heck of an accusation.

Dude just had a baby (and unless you're so rich that you have nannies 24/7, that's rough) and he's also just having an off night playing in a vanilla offense against their 1s.

If he'd looked like this with our #1s with actual full game planning, I'd be just as upset.

But "hanging around for a paycheck"... sorry, I don't see that. That's tantamount to an accusation of malingering and if that were true, I have every faith in McVay and Snead that he'd be cut immediately.

Anyway, there's another half so... Ram on!
But really Mac, have you ever seen Mannion play well in years? I really can't remember when he has.

Their #1's? I didn't see any ones in after the first series or two...what about the rest of the half?

Trevon Young looked good... showed quickness for a guy coming off that hip injury 2 yrs ago. Maybe he is 100% back. I like his length and size.

I don't disagree. He was plain awful tonight.

That said, I would bet real money that Mannion's poor performance was much more a function of the baby and ZERO about "just collecting a paycheck".

I take offense to that. That infers that McVay and his coaches, Snead and Demoff would ALLOW that to happen and I don't believe THAT for a second.

That was it.

Got to look long and hard for positives.

It was Rams 2nds Vs their 1s.
Kiser made nice stops.
Nice stop by Travon Young.
Natson showed speed and some moves.
J Davis looks very good with better blocking.

Bad
Mannnion
Blocking early
Penalties
Defense could stop them.

I never said anything about playing for a paycheck, and I am not just talking about tonight. I literally have never seen Sean Mannion play a good game. Have you?

Name a single outing where Mannion looked like he is ready if called into action. I am tired of seeing the Rams QB situation being suggested as below average because of their QB backup situation. I am a Rams homer so aGain NAME A SINGLE instance where Mannion looked impressive beyond his arm strength. I will gladly agree if I am
wrong!!!!!! GLADLY!!!!

Dallas preseason game where the fans were saying Spruuuuuuuce but other than that - I agree - he sucks

I never liked the pick and I haven't been very impressed with him other than that Dallas game.

And watching the Ravens broadcast - I have to say - they are beyond homerism

They almost never name a Rams player.

No.

I was just taking issue what what @dang said.

Yes, he's been awful.

If this is what he's bringing, I really hope one of the other 2 QBs really steps up.

I just don't think he's hanging around collecting a paycheck. That's far different than just not being good enough.
