Even if Beck does not start, he's a backup that we have faith in and could start. Dutch isn't even PS-worthy. Jarmon had talent but not in a 3-4. Gaffney has been a consistent contributor his entire career and has a history with Rex. Helu will be great. Kerrigan already is.

Kerrigan is "ALREADY GREAT"?? He played ONE game and is ALREADY GREAT.

I have seen few optimists as great as you in my life.


BTW, I like Kerrigan and think he may show - - one of these days - - that he is a really good NFL player. So, don't try to label me as some kind of hater here. It's just that no one deserves "GREAT" after one game. Is Cam Newton already GREAT? I don't think so...

As to Helu, you have him as GREAT and he has yet to do anything in a real NFL game.
