It's a non-issue unless the team itself is 'in the dark' about who's starting, which I doubt. Competition in the NFL is razor thin and if Mangini makes the Vikings tweak their preparations one iota he's right to withhold an announcement. Different qbs have different tendencies, even if one of them isn't a Vick.

I wonder how the national guys come to their conclusions. My guess is they read a couple local articles.

mangini is an oaf, and is sure to end up on those coors light commercials by next year. his secretive paranoia is nothing short of a psychiatric disorder, and if he truly feels keeping the QB secret confers some sort of competitive advantage, he's delusional as well. the man knows how to eat though, and how to fill out a waist line on xxl clothing.

Is it just me, or is Vegas missing something @ the Browns-Vikings? Browns +3.5? I would probably STILL take the Vikings if it was Vikings -10. For fun, of course…gambling is illegal.

Pat, phenomenal UA article. Great reporting, thanks for that inside look.
