Are Packers or Steelers fans considered bad? St. Louis Cardinals? I'd argue that outside of Texas, no one really thinks anything bad about Spurs fans. Probably not coincidentally, all those teams are considered relatively classy teams.
I really hope Mallett can step it up and get his accuracy under control... Id much prefer him to Hoyer bc of the potential. Hoyer is like Fitz... We need Mallett to be better.
If what they are saying is true, and they really are that close, I think you have to go with Mallett. When you have what you think to be similar quality, you go with the higher upside.
sounds like hoyer has had the slightly better or more consistent camp, but i think BillOB is really pulling for Mallet to be the guy. Its like hes try to give Ryan all the chances he can to take the starting job.
all 3 quarterbacks who haven't done a thing in the nfl will play in a preseason game? well thanks a lot b.o.b for that ground breaking news.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...-dont-know-enough-about-qbs-to-make-decision/ I think O'B really wants Mallett to be his guy.
Ive had the same feeling for a while now..BOBs just using Hoyer to push Mallet to get better. won't be surprised if Mallet starts game 1..
Then why do they add Hoyer at double the salary. If this is true its another reason why Rick Smith sucks at salary cap management.
