True. I'm not completely sold on Grossman yet either, I'd like to see how he plays against the Jags and Giants d before we anoit him a nice short term solution. If he does play well against both there's no reason why we can't let him continue to play if we do go qb in the first round next year, and let the qb sit as long as Grossman plays good. But if Grossman does start stinking up the joint next season, and it's not because of something out of his control like the o-line stinking, I'd give him the hook. And in the off-chance he has a great season next year, well then no need to rush a rook in there.
Right now though, it's nice that he had a good game against Dallas, but we need to see some consistency before decisions are made.
