How Many Regular Season Games Will Rex Grossman Start

I'll say he starts 13 games, finishes 12.

Re: How Many Regular Season Games Will Rex Grossman Start

I think he makes it the season. He'll have three catastrophic games - but not in a row - and Shanahan will simply keep plugging him in.

Beck only plays (starts) if we have a losing record by midseason and 3 of the losses are directly attributable to Rexy. If Rex makes it to midseason, I think he is in for the long haul.

Re: How Many Regular Season Games Will Rex Grossman Start

Beck only starts barring a Rex Grossman injury. I think Rex is going to play solid this year with the talent around him. I as re-watching last year games and preseason this year, and he has a hard on for S. Moss. He always knows where Moss is at and they have a connection.

S. Moss might have a pro bowl year

Wrecks makes it through most of the season until Shanny just can't take it any more. Beck starts in December.

Re: How Many Regular Season Games Will Rex Grossman Start

Barring injury Rex is the guy for this season.

I could see Beck playing if the team is tanking, but that's it.

Rex will stay solid enough to hold the job.

Re: How Many Regular Season Games Will Rex Grossman Start

I put my vote for 11-16, but I think it'll be closer to 11 than it will be to 16. I think he'll play 3 quarters of the season, and then if we drop out of playoff contention Shanny will see what Beck has. And in the event we stay in playoff contention the whole season with Rex at quarterback, then the games he'll miss will be because of injury (Somewhere between 1-3).

Re: How Many Regular Season Games Will Rex Grossman Start

I think Beck leads this team into a WC game due to Rex being benched in early Dec

I agree. Shanny didnt name Rex starter to pull him after week 3 because it would make Shanny look like he made a mistake picking Rex and Shanny doesnt want that. Rex will have to tank really bad to be pulled.

I completely agree here. I don't think Rex' leash is as short as everyone thinks it is. I think he has a good 5-8 window to bench himself.

I think he goes the season. We should be pushing for a playoff spot even with a difficult last 5 games. Jets, pats, giants, Vikings, and eagles.

RG aka the "R"ight "G"uy plays the whole season (supporting who our FO picked to be QB).

Re: How Many Regular Season Games Will Rex Grossman Start

I think alot of people not counting on the fact that Rex can bench himself pretty easily. if we go into the early break playing poorly on offense, I bet Shanny and Kyle revisit the idea of Beck starting after the bye.

Re: How Many Regular Season Games Will Rex Grossman Start

I'm hoping he stays healthy and starts all sixteen. The only way he won't is.....injury or poor performance that forces the coaches hand. Shanahan has made his decision now he must stick by it.
