Damn I feel this is Nov 2012 and we have a choice between two shmucks for Pres. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Either choice is sort of lame anymore. Chase Daniel has had more of an impressive preseason than both of these guys statwise. I am almost wishing we still had JC, as our predicament is almost that bad. I see Rex getting hurt, and Beck losing games for us. I mean how can guys like Daniel and Bartel have solid preseasons and they are backups and this guy(Beck) has a mediocre one and I am supposed to think he is going to magically turn it on come 9-11-11 and be a solid starter for us? I really think we need to be concerned about our QB situation for 2011. I also believe we need to draft not one, but two QBs next year.
Grossman has been excellent this preseason and Beck's play has displayed established that baseline of mere competence and with the potential for plenty more. Both of them can execute Kyle's offense at a reasonable level that the passing game will have to be respected.
Campbell is a wuss who NEVER did well when he's about to get hit or was being hit. His vision went to crap and he just looked for Cooley. Not only that, but he was never particularly confident about "gunning it in", something BOTH Beck and Grossman have no qualms about.

Only our damn fan base is concerned about next years draft before the regular season even begins. Really dude? Can't you wait until Oct. 1 at least until we have a pulse of the team? So annoying.

not to mention that both QB's had a fairly good pre-season (besides this game for Beck)

I wonder if the reason Beck has never established himself as a starter is that he's just not consistent from game to game, good game then bad game. He didnt look good at all last night.

He didn't look good "at all" last night? Really?
Sure, he had some throws that he'd like to have back, maybe more so than in any game we've seen so far in exhibition. But he still made some completions under pressure, with zip and accuracy in the intermediate yardage range that we never saw with either Donovan McNabb last year, nor with Jason Campbell the previous five years.
I don't know how with one bad night we can hang the Inconsistent Tag around his neck, as though it's going to be an ongoing problem with him. We just don't know that yet.

The moment that Rex was slated to sit out this game, and the fact Shanny sits his starters last preseason game was enough to put the pieces together.
Wouldn't think the coach would expose his starting QB to two quarters of meaningless football with the regular season only a week away.
I just get a kick out of how opinions continue to change about Beck/Grossman from week to week. You're only as good as your last play is hard at work here.

How often does a QB get an unnecessary roughness penalty? Clemens should start simply because he is a bad man. :)

Anyone who watched last night has to admitt Beck hurt his profile rather than helped. He shoulda been picked on 2-3 more throws than he did. That throw to the endzone was flat out bad that was intercepted. I still think he should start the year as the QB, but if he struggles throw Sexy in. Beck looked really uncomfortable last nite in the pocket and our interior line struggled with pass rush. Dunno, but last night the offense overall was the most disappointing anytime during the preaseason and this was against the 2s for Tampa.

I would much rather start with Beck, and if necessary go to Grossman, then start with Grossman and then end with Beck if necessary.
I think MS is going to wait until the last possible minute to name a starting QB.
Yeah he said that last week. He wants the Giants to have to plan for both guys.
