Who do you want to start at QB?

Rex is like blood in the water...the Defense smell it the minute he steps on the field. Right now Beck has the confidence that this team needs to see in the huddle.

....thought it would be interesting to look at this again.

I'll tell you what, that guy 44ever's posts on page 7-9 are amazingly insightful... ;)

Why did you think that would be interesting? Honest question, after all there was a poll where I believe a large majority wanted Beck but a substantial minority wanted Grossman. Also, not many of us(if any) are sold on Beck or Grossman leading this team after this year, and so why would a thread where a fan base comes to accept the decision made by their team be of any exciting interest? Again, seriously wondering what made you think it.

LMAO! Hey check out this list of Studs!! We even have a few Vagiants on there, but Todd Collins will always be my personal fav!
Redskins Starting Quarterbacks 1990 - Present (http://www.redskinscardmuseum.com/redskins-quarterbacks-90-present.html)

My Fav was Brad Johnson

At this point I don't care. Personally if Beck was any better he'd have been starting already, but he was not .... most likely for a reason. I think the situation was this;

Grossman- Knows the playbook inside and out and is able to switch the play at the LOS to a more favorable play the defense is giving him. I think he's more accurate on the deep passes. Definitly a pocket passer and poised.

Beck- Has better legs for roll outs and for running if need be. Has a stronger arm and can throw the ball farther, but is not as accurate on the deep ball.

I think due to both not being a complete package the coaching staff had to decide what they wanted from a QB and had to decide which QB was better suited. I think in the end Grossman won the job because of his ability to switch the play.

I don't hate Beck, but if he was better he already would have been starting. At this point I hope they do start Beck. Like the rest of you lets see what he "can" and or "can't" do. Trust me I was just as excited prior to the season starting with the assumption that Beck was starting simply because Grossman can not scramble for a 1st down to save his life, but I accepted that there was a reason Beck was not starting. The problems I think we will see is more sacks because Beck will probably not change the play at the LOS and will run the play sent in which will result in a sack. He'll make some good plays just like Grossman did but I honestly don't think either QB will out play the other and the fans who have been clamering for the change will be slightly dissapointed.

All in all ...... this team needs more OL depth next year and a QB out of the draft.

No, not at all. If we truly want to win this season get Carson Palmer. The Bengals are ready to deal. VY is a headcase. He can't make the adjustment from God at Texas to just a NFL starting QB. In saying this, I am not saying I want Palmer, just saying if you want a real franchise type QB NOW get Palmer. Young is a wash in my book. Yeah, you can get him cheap, but he would be another McNabb at best.

LOL, please don't tell me people are still chanting the Young name? I was suprised at all the Young fans here who wanted the team to pick him up and thank god we didn't because just look how bad he is. Two times he was put in the game and he sucked. I have an Eagle fan I work with who is bad mouthing Young because he sucks.

I'm not a Palmer fan and really don't think he's much better then Grossman or Beck but trading this late in the season? he wouldn't be worth a start until next year after he's had time to digest the scheme and play calls.

I will be HYPED if I hear Beck gets the job, if he says Rex is the guy still I will vomit

Well the good news for you is we should find out by Wed. I'm just seriously hoping Beck doesn't let you down on Sun.

This past year our draft strategy was to move down and infuse youth at many different positions. We did a good job of this. We have a good surrounding cast for a franchise QB.

But now it is time to get that QB. I will be happy if we take the opposite approach in the offseason by going all-in to draft a talented rookie QB. If it takes trading several picks to get one studly QB, so be it.
