John Beck Era Begins

I also didn't see anyone really backing Grossman other than Moss. I saw where Brown, Orakpo and another player was discussing the TO's. Obviously they didn't come out and throw Grossman under the bus as he did his receivers. However, they definitely aren't happy with the TO's.

A QB does that when the media wants to hang him out to dry, the coaching staff benches him, and the 2nd stringer makes a few comments like "we can't be throwing interceptions every game, we need to protect the ball more." That was a dig at Grossman by Beck. So Grossman came out and the media questioned him about his interceptions.... all he said is he thinks he has done fine and that the interceptions we have seen in the 1st four games he could prove were not his fault through video.

and this is what my whole arguement is ..... I don't think all the INT's are Rex's fault either and for those chanting for Beck to start each game I think you will be let down when the very same WR's fail to do their job and he throws INT's also. Fans are acting like Beck is the savior and will solve this riddle by being able to buy more time but if the WR's cant' catch a cold then the results will be the same.

We keep looking at this as 4-5 games for Grossman. The kid has a history of turning the ball over. So, the problem stretches for years not weeks. He hasn't corrected his TO issues in years so it's not going to be fixed.

Do, we know Beck has a TO problem? He has started 4 games. I think if anyone needs a little time to prove himself it's Beck. After all we are comparing 4 games to years of work with Grossman.

Beck may play badly but can it really be much worse then Grossman? As everyone else mentions we need to make a move. May work and may not work but we need to see what we have and make a decision for next year.

This^^^
... I agree and feel some were/are looking at Rex as 4-5 games in but like you say, it's been years. Wasn't going to get any better. Can't go a whole season like that because there is no guarantee we are finding our young QB next draft.

Beck at least gives us a second chance at extending the QB position and keeping the team from spiraling down until the QB position is resolved.

Not really sure why all the love for Rex from some... I mean, the guy stinks.

@ SBXVII - Im not a "Beck fan". I just can't stand Rex and Beck is next in line. It's time for change, so I have no choice... The Prediction is only a optimistic prediction, nothing more. After all, I am a Redskins Fan.
