John Beck Era Begins

SBXVII · 10-19-2011, 04:53 PM

Yay.

I'm just as glad as the rest of you so see what we got in Beck. All summer long it was kinda implied Beck would start and when Rex got the nod I was just as let down and confused as the rest of you. But ... there was a reason Rex got the nod and having said that I really hope Beck does not let us down.

In no way am I implying Rex is the best thing since sliced bread but what makes him a turd? No one really explained that well yesterday other then to say...."your missing the point." I wasn't. He can't run to save his life. He doesn't have a very strong arm to throw very deep. I get it. But if we are basing this off his INT's over 4 starts this year? his INT's match up with the best. Maybe Beck comes in and can score more points some how, good. But I'm more worried it's not the QB play so much as the WR not making plays.

This will let us know if the QB we draft next year will start right away or sit for a year or two. Go Beck.

Whoever we bring in as QB for the 1st round needs to start. Neither Beck nor Grossman are franchise QB's. I think the coaching staff and fans know there is a drastic need for a better QB on this team.

Need to give it at least a couple games. Rex was a sure fire pro bowler after the Giants game. Consistency is key.

Even if you throw in Barkley and Jones I still don't see a rookie QB not named Luck that would be able to run the offense in 2012 better then Beck or Grossman (or Leinart for that matter).

You know... I wanted Andy Dalton and people said he was not starting material. Said he would probably go in the 4th to 5th round and not be any good. I'm sure there are other QB's out their that can be brought in to start but KS will have his hands full with major coaching up over the summer. On top of that the team would need to stick to what the QB knows and what he can do.

Question.....I don't follow college football all that much. So my question is what qb coming out of college in next years draft fits shannys style best? Jones, Barkley, Luck??.... Or someone else I don't know about.

Luck fits everyone's system. Jones is comparable physically to Luck. Barkley kind of scares me when I hear comparisons to Mark Sanchez.

luck, robert griffin III, kellen moore (quick release and so accurate)

Depends on which system? KS or MS lol luck fits best but no way we get him so I'd go with someone like Barkley or Moore

You live in Norman, OK and you didn't mention Landry. What's wrong with Landry?

Why don't we keep this thread focused on our current starting QB. We have multiple other threads to discuss potential QBs currently playing in college

That reminds me, has anyone heard of this Kellen Moore kid? If I recall correctly he's a QB at Boise State.

Yes, SS is one of the moderators here on the board. He does a damn good job at it too. Its a harder job than people think, you have to tread a fine line between over-kill and lack-a-daisical. I used to be a moderator myself, not here, but on another redskins fan site.
