But hey, Donte Stallworth: 4 targets, 4 catches with a TD on Sunday. You win this round, Mike Shanahan!
this is exactly correct sir....

Re: Grossman, Beck or-ton?

It's funny because this team would be in serious division contention if the Redskins didn't put a quarterback in that will never be considered a starting option again in this league. There is no way Rex Grossman would have lost 6 games in a row as a starter, just goes to show you what a failure this franchise has been the past 20 years. I bet he puts up big numbers the rest of the season and enters next year as starter and can't wait until we cut that loser Beck. What a wasted season that had so much hope.

Uh oh, Rex Grossman's mother is back. How dare they bench Grossman, all 4 of those picks against Philly were everybody else's fault.

I agree but Rex's last game against Philly was just plain stupid.. We had a chance if he didn't throw 4 Ints

Re: Grossman, Beck or-ton?

id bring him in if shannahan thinks he can be a starter next year so he'd have more time to learn the system. otherwise, no thanks.

Re: Grossman, Beck or-ton?

Does Orton's release mean the Broncos are gonna be in the hunt for a QB in the draft as well? I don't want any more competition for the Skins.

Can he control himself when we talk about drafting a fresh face at the QB position in next year's draft?

Why would they?
They already have the second coming of Bronko Nagurski.

Re: Grossman, Beck or-ton?

No, it's just funny because I was right that Grossman was going to start the season over Beck, and still correct that Grossman should have never been benched if this team had a clue. Look at the division, we would be in perfect contention if they didn't put in an incapable quarterback who had 14 completions to a rb, what a bum... I'm not opposed to drafting a quarterback, he just has to be good. But I think Rex should be the starter next season becuase you won't find anybody better. The rest of the team around Rex is what sucks, not Rex.

The team was coming out of a bye week, they should have accepted that he was rusty, because the benching of Grossman is EXACTLY why the season is already over.

Re: Grossman, Beck or-ton?

Grossman would have lit up the Bills by the way as Beck couldn't muster a point. I hope I do get banned again, you're all idiots that have no idea what a good quarterback is, Rex is the best quarterback this team has had in the last 20 years and he gets benched for Beck. I've been a Redskins fan for 18 years but it's obvious that they really are the laughing stock of the league, just pitiful and sad.

Re: Grossman, Beck or-ton?

Im cool w getting him and releasing Beck. Grossman is a FA next year so who knows what's gonna happen with him. And as pointed out in pft orton is a fa next year too so if we give him a shot, he fails and signs with another team well get a compensatory draft pick. why not take a chance, when theres only something to gain either way?

I too am a Grossman fan, though not to the extent you are. And I think it's a shame he didn't leave any doubt he should be the starter. I understand all interceptions are not his fault. But he made some pretty awful decisions against the Eagles in a game that could have catapulted us and ended their season all at once.

There's no question Rex is better than Beck and yeah we probably would have a better record with him as the starter. But he also had pneumonia and couldn't play anyway.

But anyway, I'd advise you not to say we're all idiots
