Re: Lets look at future positives

A lot of things killed the team this year... including the QB play.

The excuses for Rex never cease to amaze me.

I don't' think the Rex sympathizers say that he has done nothing wrong, it's just a reaction to how people think once we draft a QB (OMG!!! RGIII SUPERBOWL!!DONTH8TE) everything will be okay is discerning.

How good would you feel saying you had to go throw to Santana Moss and Jabar Gaffney? Or have to sit behind that offensive line, knowing everyone is playing out of position?

By all means, Rex can make very, very bad decisions, but he can run the system well. Holding that ball for so long in the end-zone is just typical of what he does wrong and really hurts the team.

But, for those people who are thinking Rex has been the overall negative, I don't think is right. I think he can run the system and is average. But, it's taken this long to get the running game steady. The Skins don't have WRs that are able to make separation. The offensive line isn't exactly the epitome of consistency. There are no playmakers except maybe Fred Davis.

I guess it comes down to either hauling the hate on Rex or spreading it around evenly. Just bringing in a new QB isn't going to be an automatic fix; there are more than just one problem.

Don't associate smart fans with morons who believe any good acquisition going to lead to a superbowl appearance. The truth is we haven't had a good qb here in a very, very long time. That is the main reason we haven't been consistent on offense in a very long time. Qb is our biggest need going into this offseason. Rex sucks regardless of how much you try to redirect the blame.

exactly. Rex grossman is pathetic, period. Can he show capability at times? yes, but taking everything into account, the guy is the fukkin pits.

Truth is.....

Watching him play is like having someone shove bamboo shoots under your fingernails all while someone is scratching their nails on a chalkboard......
