Maybe he's not top shelf, but he's certainly not typical fan blogger...no idea what his sources told him, but seems like someone who is not going to just lie.

I posted the above in response that McMullen wasn't worthy to be listened to.
Maybe you can "see through" it, but if you take that position, then you are saying you know better. And we know you don't have a single source. Just your "gut"
As the guy did was say "
Two separate NFL sources recently told John McMullen of Today’s Pigskin that the Rams’ coaching staff are far more comfortable with Mannion as the backup, and: ‘if this [decision] was made in a vacuum, Mannion would be the backup on game days, and the one preparing to take over the Rams offense after the next egregious Keenum throw.’"
Now, unless you know who McMullen's sources were, it's hard to call BS. Every coach on an NFL staff has friends on other staffs and McMillen has been around long enough to know some of them.
None of us on this board can rival McMullen's experience.
Now, what was said was not really that impossible. Don't even think there is anything odd, given how Mannion played better in preseason than Goff.
