Re: RGIII Named Starter
i think fanarchist's elitist stance rubs more than one the wrong way

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. |

Re: RGIII Named Starter
As for the no-huddle talk, RGIII will be a Peyton Manning with wheels, braids, and a different hue.

Re: RGIII Named Starter
I can't see us suddenly becoming a no-huddle team.
Don't get me wrong, I would love it. Just don't see it happening. |

Re: RGIII Named Starter
RG3 is going to have enough on his plate as it is. Not sure if going no-huddle is the best idea, at least right off the bat. Let's see how he picks things up.

Leno: So, tell us, what's the deal with the socks? RG3: I like them. Leno: So what was the whole draft experience like? RG3: It was great. NYC is a lot of fun. Leno: Now I don't know much about football, but they tell me quarterback is the most important position. Is this true? RG3: Yes. / Okay so that last one was clearly made up by me, but you still get the point.
