Re: RGIII Named Starter

The argument of 'who else was the option' is a silly argument.
Of course there were other options besides Beck and Rex via draft/trade/FA but the staff chose to go with them.

There is no way to say for sure if there were "better" options because there is no way to judge.
However what we do know is that our record and the production from Beck/Rex was near league worst.
So the benchmark for a better solution isn't very high.

I don't see what is so wrong with admitting that the staff made a mistake going with Beck/Rex as opposed to drafting a QB somewhere anywhere in the draft or signing/trading for a FA QB.

Solving the QB problem is good for the franchise regardless if it happens in year 1 or in year 3.
Mike Shanahan and Kyle Shanahan have made mistakes but all coaches and GMs make mistakes.
But, grooming a young franchise QB buys him at least 2 year imo.
And in those 2 years I have full faith that Mike Shanahan's outstanding coaching ability will mask if not erase the mistakes of Mike Shanahan the GM.
