Can Colt Brennan beat Rex Grossman for number 2 spot

McNabb already has #5. Colt is now #15. It was announced yesterday.

And Brennan had his shot, he got outplayed by Chase Daniel last pre-season.

I agree with you all the way up until you said Colt got out played. I too am a Chase fan and liked what he offered. I wish we kept him. I too think he would have surpassed Colt but last preseason I felt Colt did better then Collins also. He just can't stay healthy. Because of that issue I'm about ready to pass on him as well.

Hands down JC wins this one. But, he wants to start so I don't see him staying. With that said, it would be really nice to have JC back up DM and Grossman backing JC. Probably never gonna happen. Nah, never gonna happen

No. Rex has had at least a few good seasons but Colt Brennan is a risky shot in the dark.

Colt is a poor man's Rex Grossman.

Rex is already familiar with this offense too.

Agreed. We need a new long term project at QB.

I would like that alot i think JC can learn alot from DM, but MS said in DM's news conference JC asked for permission to look for another starting job on another team and he was granted it. CB is young & he can learn alot from DM, 4 to 5 yrs as DM's backup & then he takes over that would be a good look for either JC or CB.

Lets wait and see. After the third week of preseason the staff can make an informed decision on their QB's that are still here. At the moment other than Donvan McNabb, we do not know who will be going to camp at QB.

Yes, because 4th and 5th round draft picks are so easily developed into PRO BOWL/H.O.F. quarterbacks.

I think Brennan has great upside especially in Shanni's version of the west coast. I think Rex is a lot better than people think though. I don't see Brennan overtaking Rex in one preseason but hopefully they keep him as the 3rd. I just hate to see Brennan go to another team and blow up. It wont be worth the "told u so" in the end. I'm glad Campbells no longer in the realistic scenario. He's a good guy and it really wouldn't hurt so much if he went to another team and did well. I doubt him being anything more than mediocre is in the cards though.

Anything can happen?

I'm starting to think of people who are fighting to find ways for Colt to remain with the team the same way I think of people who write to George Lucas begging for Episode VII.
