Beck probably couldn't go through his progreessions one damn and was Cap'n Checkdown thoughout practice.

Sonny J. said Shanny told him a few days ago. Very, very surprising move. Shanny's losing a lot of credibility right now.

I mentioned this in another thread- the momet Shanny switches back to Grossman is the moment he admits that this team doesn't have a quarterback. So much for staking your reputation on these guys.

Sometimes you put all your money on a guy, and then you lose all your money. Credibility or not, I hope Shanny gets his next qb move right, because we're 0 for 3 these 2 seasons.

IMO we're 0-4... I consider letting Jason Campbell walk a swing and a miss move. The guy isn't a star but he's better than what Rex/Donovan/Beck have given us.

At least with Rex we have a chance to score a TD or two. Beck is not an NFL QB. He's proven that.

Yep, he's definitely 0-4. Shanny has no credibility on QBs. He's def 0-4.

Good call. JC would be a definite upgrade from what we have now, and he wouldn't even have cost us anything.

Yes, he would have. We would not have gotten the fourth rounder we got from Oakland. Nor is his skillset adequate to take a team very far. That's why the Shanahan had to go hunt, because what he was sure to provide wasn't enough to pilot an offense.

I feel bad for the guy. I mean I know he's no all-star, but he really is an above average starter and just gets shafted time after time. Total class act too.

Perhaps Shanny's next move is to give the Raiders their 4th round pick back for Campbell. He has completely crapped the bed on managing the most important position on the field.

And the worst part is that 66% of these moves were inevitably wrong.

He didn't want to draft a scrub in last years draft, we would probably have ended up with a younger beck, he'll get his qb in the next draft
