If Rex isn't the starter week 1, shame on Mike Shanahan/Kyle Shanahan.

I thought you might go with the handling of the McNabb situation or the Albert situation last year after that statement, which I would agree with you. I think what you have to remember is everyone including the Shanny know what you have with Rex, they are giving a chance to someone who's never had one before and had shown some talent in the past. Would you rather go 7-9, 8-8 with Rex or would you see if this guy can grow into the offense, become a leader, and help this team compete in a highly volatile nfc east where nothing is for sure this year? Personally Im not convinced, but we already know what we got with Rex, lets give the guy a chance.
