The panic button was slammed after the Minnesota Vikings second preseason game regarding the backup quarterback position.
Neither Kellen Mond nor Jake Browning seems adequate as a QB2 option if either man was asked to play regular season football tomorrow. Mond has a lot of time to go for growth and development — he is a rookie — so his overall prognosis is more geared toward beyond 2021.
Browning, on the other hand, convinced thousands of Vikings fans that he was the real QB2 deal after a night scrimmage in Eagan three weeks ago. Hell, he cajoled some into believing he could play as a starter if called upon.
