Me neither, I wouldn't be surprised if Beck plays well during training camp.
I never understood why fans have such animosity towards Beck yet a lot of the same people actually like Rex.

I'd certainly like to see what Jonathan Crompton has. He couldn't do any worse than Beck or Grossman did.

It's starting to look like Peyton is in fact done in Indy

Re: The "Inside Word" on the QB Search

Like TO would say. The Colts have 28 million reasons to let him go.

Beck is awful and gives us no chance to win. But he's a good guy and at least understands the system enough to hang around and help out until the end of the preseason

I agree about Rex as a starter. Those days are over.

But I actually think he's one of the better backups in the league. As bad as we thought Rex was, a couple weeks of Beck changed that. The difference between the two was obvious. If Rex was the Bears backup they probably make the playoffs and Angelo keeps his job.

I have no problem bringing back Rex as a backup behind a clear #1 QB. If Rex is the starter...

Even worse I kinda got the feeling Beck would be released and Grossman would be staying because he knows the system. Both are FA's so it will be interesting to see if either leave or get picked up by another team as a back up. That might decide who stays and who doesn't.

I'd prefer the house cleaning idea and both be let go.

:frusty:I understand the love for RGIII, but I think we all have to understand something, no way does MS go into next season with just RGIII or Crompton and RGIII. I don't think any of us would want that either. So "IF" Grossman and Beck are both gone which I think most of us would want.... then some other "VET" will have to be brought in, preferably one that will not cost us draft picks or trading of players. Atleast for me.

So figure on a FA QB possibly being brought in, and a Drafted QB being brought in. Maybe I'm just using too much common sense.

I think Rex would be a great backup. You hope your backup can come in and win you a few games. At the same time, you hope your backup doesn't have to come in the game much at all, except in clean up time when you've already won the game. So, I'd be OK with Rex staying as a backup.

Re: The "Inside Word" on the QB Search

We will probably draft two QB's and sign a FA QB as well Like Robert Griffin III 1st rd Kellen Moore 5th rd and a FA

That's why we should have given him a game action test drive in December, even just a quarter or a half of action.
