Don't bash me, but Rex is probably the best thing to happen to this team at QB in a long time. Here me out here.

He is a younger guy (30), who isnt demanding big money and has no illusions that he is going to be guaranteed anything. This is probably the exact opposite of most every player that has walked through our door in the last 10 years.

He is going to come to compete, and earn a job and a role on this team. That alone speaks worlds of difference between this regime and the old one, where players could just skip the workouts, do nothing in preseason, and come right in and get paid to be a starter. (Portis, Haynesworth, Adam Archuleta, etc....)

I'm starting to get excited again. I haven't been this excited since our 2005 playoffs. We finally have a team where guys have to earn their spots...
