To be honest I will take 6 to 8 wins (though hoping for more obviously) over the next two years as long as we start seeing some young exciting talent on this team! Think Beck will start this year and do ok not great not terrible, we will then draft a QB next year (not Luck as he will go #1) and then Beck will start next year as well. In 2013 we will hopefully have a good young QB behind center who has had a year to sit and learn the offense and our D should be nicely gelled by then. So Beck probably cant get us back into contention but hopefully he can be the bridge until we get there.

Even the packers had holes last year (OLB stands out IMO). You can have a couple of holes and still be a contender. Look at the colts, their team is junk without Manning. A good qb can take a team with a few holes far. If we get a WR, an interior lineman, a right tackle, get cullen jenkins, and resign buchanon we have enough pieces to be contenders if our qb can perform at a high enough level. Cullen, buchanon, the right tackle are all locks IMO. This is a completely hypothetical situational question. IF we fill enough holes, how far can Beck take us?
I read the question as its stated, how far can Beck take us, I didnt see where it said or implied if lots of holes are filled how far can Beck take us. You are correct, every team does have holes but the Skins have as many holes as a piece of Swiss cheese. This team isnt going anywhere. This is a 8-8 team at best.

I think how we start determines everything. Should we come out to a start 2-2, 3-1, I think we can be a legitimate team, especially within the division where dallas is falling apart, and new york suffers perpetual collapses. 1-3, 0-4, and im in favor of officially designating it a rebuilding year. Theres no sense in going 8-8 when the one piece you really need in Andrew Luck, or more likely, Landry Jones, is going to be available around the 10th pick.

2013 will be the start of NFL's next dynasty. We'll be the 1970s Steelers and 1980s 49ers of the new millennium. :D
3 SB wins in 5 years.
Hey, this thread needed a wild prediction.

If nothing else, John Beck can at least drive our team rep to the airport to fly to New York to select our franchise qb of the future at the NFL draft. He's gotta be good for something.

If he gets to the airport they wont recognize him and wont let him park.

Man, this Beck guy is hilarious. He has all the confidence in the world that's for sure. Let's hope he can show us more than "the best that he can" because that probably won't be good enough in the NFL.
John Beck: 7-29 (http://www.redskins.com/media-gallery/videos/John-Beck-7-29/d77423a7-9d17-4033-b551-929705630ea8)
You Go Beck....get your 15 min shine on!
