Redskins 2011 Starting Quarterback: John Beck?

[skinsfaninok]

Like I said who knows? Maybe JB is legit

In terms of in-house quarterbacks for 2011, I would almost choose Grossman over Beck simply because he's a constant and if you're evaluating your roster knowing that neither Grossman or Beck is the future because they are both in their primes, you're much better off playing the player who gives you exactly what you know you are getting. /run-on

I still think the Redskins starting QB in 2011 is not on the roster as of this day.

I would rather see Beck for the exact same reason, I know what I'm getting with #8.
I hope Cinnci comes calling for him.

I agree.
And I have a hard time believing its Vince.

Imo there is little room for error, whomever they tab to be the starting QB must have a good season, reputations are at stake.

You would think the Shanahan's aren't going into this season with their reputations in the hands of a guy that's only had 4 starts a few years ago.

Orton, Bulger? Maybe David Garrard?

Matt Hasselbeck?

Matt Leinart?

Matt Moore?

Matt Houston?

Matt Kyer?

and in 2012....Matt Barkley!

talks the talk, sooner or later he will have to walk the walk.

For a guy we all suspect is a POS Beck sure is talking a lot.

Since when do we all suspect Beck is a POS?? Are you just hating on his mormon similarities to Mitt Romney?

If you don't think a 29 yo career backup qb is likely going suck donkey your intuition sensor needs a tuneup.

Well I suspect that when you called him a POS, you were speaking of your expectations of him as a starting NFL QB...not of him as a person

Oh, I think he is a douche backbencher besides being a lousy QB. Him talking about how he's glad McNabb failed isn't going to enamor people to like him more. He needs shut his f'ing piehole and earn the spot before announcing it to the whole world that he practically got the job on lock.

It's going to be a miserable day for him when Shanahan tells him Rex is the starting QB.

I thought you were referring to him as a human being. I agree that he should shut up at this point, but I think it's premature to call him a POS as a player because the sample size is too small. And I certainly don't think he's a POS person.

Your impulsive name calling sensor needs a tune-up.

He was screwed in Miami. He was drafted to be "The Guy", and then the whole Brett Favre thing happened in 2008, Pennington was traded to the dolphins because they wanted a QB who would start right then....and Beck was forgotten.

Keep in mind Bill Parcells was high on this guy....that has to count for something

Beck sure is acting like a starter, gotta say I think I'm pulling for the guy now.

As long as he's on our roster, I'll pull for him...but I'm still not convinced he's the best answer for us. Well he may be, but only by default

I'm pulling for him now and, assuming there is football in August, I will be convinced he is the next Trent Green/Rich Gannon/etc. - a pro-bowler waiting to happen.

Then he will start the opener and, as my burgundy biased expectations are shattered by his play, I will be reminded "Oh yeah, he's John Beck".
