The best attribute of Marcus are his brain and work ethic. He will out work everyone and he processes things better than anyone out there.


The work ethic is the only reason he has a shot in hell at being a serviceable QB. I don't think it places him in elite QB territory or anywhere close to it.

You don't think Rodgers, Brees, Brady, Manning have the same work ethic that Mariota has? But they also have thousands of reps in pro-style schemes. You can't just make up for that lack of experience by just working hard. It's just going to take time, time he doesn't have.

That's where I do agree with you.

He needs to get in an Aaron Rodgers situation where he can learn for a bit. He has talent, work ethic, and brain, he just doesn't need to be thrown to the wolves his rookie year behind a wet paper towel OL.

I really am rooting for him, I hope this year doesn't ruin him.
