So he has a Super Bowl ring, was drafted by someone who can actually pick a quarterback, and has been hiding on the bench with the Rams. Granted he got beat out by Keenum, but he sounds like a better option than Cousins at this point.St. Louis / Los Angeles Rams
Mannion was selected by the St. Louis Rams in the third round, 89th overall, of the 2015 NFL Draft.[21] He started his career as the third-string quarterback behind Case Keenum and Nick Foles in his rookie year in 2015.
2015 season: Rookie year
Mannion played in his first NFL game of his career during a Week 12 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals in which the Rams lost 31-7. He was put in the game late in the fourth quarter, in relief of Case Keenum. He completed 6 passes out of 7 attempts for 31 yards, posting an 85.1 passer (QB) rating.[22]
2016 season
Mannion started 2016 as the second-string backup quarterback behind starter Case Keenum and ahead of the first overall pick of the 2016 NFL Draft, Jared Goff. In the season-opening 0-28 loss against the San Francisco 49ers, Goff took over as the second-string quarterback, demoting Mannion back as the third-string backup quarterback. Mannion was promoted to second-string for the final two weeks of the season. In Week 17, on New Year's Day, Mannion completed 3 of 6 passes for 19 yards and an interception after starter Jared Goff was subbed out of the game in a 44-6 blowout loss to the Arizona Cardinals.[23]
2017 season
Mannion started the 2017 season as the backup to Goff after Keenum went to the Minnesota Vikings during free agency. In the season opener against the Indianapolis Colts, Mannion came into the game to finish up in relief of Goff after the Rams were up 46–9 and again in Week 15 when they were up 42–7 over the Seattle Seahawks.[24][25] Due to head coach Sean McVay resting most of his starters for the playoffs and having the playoff seed locked in, Mannion started the regular season finale against the San Francisco 49ers. Mannion was 20-of-34 for 169 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in the 34–13 loss.[26][27]
2018 season
With Goff remaining as the starter, Mannion appeared in three games in relief roles in the 2018 season.[28] The Rams reached Super Bowl LIII, but lost 13-3 to the New England Patriots.
I would bet that Spielman made the same mistake he made with Keenum and has him on a one year deal again. Spielman has ruined this team and we won't be able to clean up his mess for years now. Our offensive line is atrocious and our quarterback situation will hamper this team salary wise for years. Maybe sign Sloter as the back up.
Trade Cousins to Steelers or Saints and get some big picks! Then we can draft a guy next year and let Kubiak pick.
