    I get this weird feeling that neither guy is going to play more than 75% of the season.

    The good news for MOFs is that pancakes still thinks Hoyer will win the QB battle.

    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.

    One wonders if Mr Mallet can coax a few more of those 100+ yard games out of Blue.
    Let's hope so.

    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.
