This in a big way, you could just throw out the stats and look at the body language. Mariota is a cool customer, relaxed, confident, a natural leader. Bennett really got rattled and tried to take the game over himself, you could see his frustration when he tried to tackle Coleman after his pick.

Bennett to me has always seemed a little "squirrely", with a nervous energy I don't really like to see in quarterbacks. I think even if Mariota had performed poorly I'd imagine he would have acted the same way he always does, after the game Bennett looked like he wanted to punch a wall.

The way his team interacts with Marcus on the sideline says a lot, they really love him. Bennett didn't try to rally or encourage his team to play better, he just kind of stood there by himself sulking, almost like a kid in a pick up game kicking the dirt and muttering to himself "my team sucks".

I like "Cool Breeze" to quote Chip.

Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch?

Anyone else think moving Keanon Lowe to running back is a possibility? I think he could do well there and we do have a lot of receivers already, plus his hands are a little suspect.

T-Mitch is the new cheese on the nachos ;)

Mariota had a great Game but Bennett wasnt to shabby either, so the good news is both of these guys I believe are capable of taking this Team to the promised land, and the first three Games of the season will allow this Team to start really jelling together. There is so much talent on this Team its scary and still believe and this is just my opinion were better than SC.
