I think it's what I said in the game day thread, Rex is a statue in the pocket, panics under pressure and is going to have a higher INT to TD ratio. If Rex finished the year you'd probably see something like 16-20 TDs, 32-40 INTs, if he was on pace to throw 1-2 TDs a game, and 2-3 picks a game. So these could be more or less, tweak them as you see fit. But there was no way he'd finish with more TDs than interceptions. And this was Rex working with a healthy team.

But those are pretty awful stats and not one you'd wanna see out of a guy supposed to be your #1. The only people with a worse QB rating than Rex is Gabbert (a rookie) and Matt Moore (A guy on a winless team)

I still think it's too early to judge Beck. He's not going to be "our guy" either. That's obvious. But for some reason I just feel safer with him over Rex for this season. And I could be totally wrong. Beck might actually be God awful. Although I hope I'm not cuz switching back and forth at the QB position has got to be awful PR.

And keep in consideration with Moss and Cooley gone, it seems Fred Davis IS the Redskins offense, seeing as nobody is stepping up offensively yet.

It took us 5 3/4ths games to judge Grossman. Although hell, people were judging him when we were 3-0 (Admittedly, I was one of them). I'd say give Beck this game, and that Miami game. Because if we sh*t the bed against Miami, we can pretty much just bury this team and our QBs along with it.
