I really can't believe anyone would still support Rex after seeing him the past season +. Heck, just look at his entire career. Turnover machine.

He's a lock for 2 turnovers a game, at the least. You just can't win in this league when you're giving the ball up like that.

If he starts, i have to support him. i just said hes not as awful as some ppl... and in reference to keeping him? as a backup who knows the offense hopefully that would be the extent of his role.
I want foles and thats the for me.

We're done with Rex as a starter. There's just no way we can go into another season with him and expect to win games.

If Rex is the starter next season, I would conclude that Shanny is tanking games to get in position to draft Barkley.

I really can't take another season of hearing about "tanking"

Meks · 01-20-2012, 03:15 PM

Make no mistake, I'm talking about Rex. Beck was a backup. He showed in 3 games why he was considered as such and returned to his regular place. Grossman was our starting QB and was the worst in the league outside of Indy.

The teams needs to clean house at QB. I don't hate Rex but it's time to move on completely

Meks · 01-20-2012, 03:56 PM

a back up that knows the system well can help a rookie qb in practice and shit, id keep rex as a back up

At some point you have to let others learn the system in my opinion.

Absolutely. The team needs reason to have hope, both from the perspective of players inside the locker room and from the fan perspective.

With Rex at QB there is just no hope to compete for a Super Bowl. The longer you keep him, the greater risk you run of having productive players want to leave the Redskins and the greater risk you run of having your team be a complete afterthought for prospective free agents.

When quality free agents hit the market, they pick their team as much as the team picks them. Good free agent players have options, and if you go into next year with Rex you give them no reason to choose the Redskins.

I think my bigger concern, and I alluded to this a few weeks ago, is that Rex is a "known commodity" for the Shanahans and as such he's an easy crutch to go to. I think whoever their QB is whether it's Flynn or Hoyer or RG3 or Tannehill, whoever it is, they have to-as they say-"ride or die" with him. It's the only way they can truly take that next step

Meks · 01-20-2012, 04:09 PM

the players backed rex if i remember correctly.... dont think anyone wanted to "leave" because of him....

but smoot yes i understand wat ur saying, but who? crompton? ... thats the only other guy with knowledge right now..... cuz i wont even say the other guys name... so whats wong with having rex one of 3 qbs, but not as a starter?
