Who Can Lead This Team?

How many more bad outings do you need to see from this guy? It's obvious that he hasn't corrected the problems that have plagued him his entire career. If you, like these stubborn coaches, want to ride the Rex train until the wheels fall off, be my guest, but I refuse to jump on board with a guy who is the epitome of perpetual disappointment. I prefer to test the road less traveled.

Guess so.

Amazing we started 2-0 with such bad performances.

We could have very easily been 1-1 though. I guess I'm wanting to know what people are really expecting from Rex? I'm expecting him to play as an average QB who can make some better decisions than what Jason Campbell did, but I'm not expecting him to turn into Steve Young. And, if the former is what we're getting, then that's OK for now - I'll continue to back Grossman, but I'm not so sure he's the long term answers as well as I'm not sure Beck is. I still think that is a vital piece that we need to get before this team can make a realistic Super Bowl run. I hope I'm wrong on that and I hope Rex Grossman makes me look foolish for saying that.
