True,I won't be upset with either pick but I lean towards Rex
Like I said I wouldnt be opposed to them carrying this same routine for reg season

Re: Redskins-Ravens: Gameday Thread

My whole deal is...if MS really liked Beck, he should've made him the starter from day one or at least start him this whole game. Instead he left it up to chance and Grossman got most of the reps against the Ravens first-team.

So if he really liked Grossman why not just name him the starter too?

I think MS just likes pushing the competition angle.

That too actually. Competition is good...but I just feel that if a QB performs against starters, he should get the nod. In the end, we have to trust Shanny I guess. But I would feel better to have seen Beck play the whole first half if he is going to be the starter.

Competition is the best way to amp of performance in the preseason. I like Beck, just think he is a 2nd stringer at best in our med to long term scheme of things. We draft a QB in 2012 I am sure. We might decide to resign Rex, especially if we make the playoffs somehow. If all this comes to fruition, depending on how the rook looks, Beck might be back to #3.

I think you're dismissing Beck too quickly though. In the end, unless either QB blows it up (in a good way), these guys are just holdovers until we draft the QB of the future.

Well, maybe telling Beck to refrain from unleashing the dragon would have helped.

I feel really comfortable with Sav Rocca as our only punter.

But the most important question is...can he pull off the swinging gate play?! LOL.

Honestly I think that question needs to be expanded even further. Can he pull off the swinging gate after showing the formation to the defense then calling a timeout before actually running the play? If he can,then we know we're set.
