If I were the Rams and Luck is good as everyone think he's going to be I'd trade Bradford to the Skins and keep Luck. I'm sure they can save a lot of cap space too by getting rid of Bradford's contract.

Disagree. They have a franchise QB that has no O-line and no WR's. They could get a king's ransom for the #1 overall pick in 2012 and could really improve their team with said ransom, all the while not losing Bradford.

The Rams problems are not at QB. They'd be pretty stupid to get rid of Bradford, but hey I'd take him in a heart beat.

What's your opinion now thread starter? Ironically, the "12" (th) Man on this team is John Beck.

I know how he feels. He's kicking himself for not going with his gut feeling. I think this is the best scenario for everybody.

Re: Start John Beck Madness Thread

The QB of your team is a extention of the coach so with that said I think Beck will get his 1st start next week. He gives the offense more mobility and can keep the play alive. Beck also can run for a 1st down when needed something Rex will never do. I have to say Rex is holding this team back from being a true contender this season. It will be up to Beck to take this thing a run with iit, if not he will be a back up QB for the rest of his NFL career.

Unless he plays like Timmy Brady reincarnate for the rest of the season I doubt he's got a bright future here. Lets face it, I think Beck at best could play slightly above average football here, and that's not going to be enough to keep the job when we are entering a draft with a lot of good, long term options at qb. Luck will be off the board but that just means one less qb needy team to compete with us and the other qb needy teams in the draft.

Re: Start John Beck Madness Thread

i dont think beck is gonna be any better in terms of end results. i think rex and beck will get us to the same spot, they will just take us on different routes to get there.

honestly i hope they are working on a 3rd option. no trading or anything but bring in some guys and kick the tires. i wouldnt sign garrard or anything either .. a couple of the best cheap available guys .. . but its 6 weeks in and we just had our bye . . . prolly not happenen

Re: Start John Beck Madness Thread

One thing I don't like is Grossman had, what I would say... Above average to good protection this year so far. He hasn't been sacked a lot, and he gets the time to throw on most big plays. It just seems that he isn't making those plays.

Now you have Beck coming in who looked 110% more poised today, but will be behind two backups on the O line that basically was keeping Rex's uniform clean all year.

I just can't imagine Rex behind the o line we will have in the next coming games if he couldn't get it done with time... What's it going to turn into when he doesn't have it? He isn't exactly going to run for a first down like Beck did today, or stretch the play for a 50 yard pass down the sideline.

except the 2 teams that cut him and the 3 that didn't want him to start for them.


I think he's different, but I don't think he's necessarily any better. more mobile, less mistake prone, but his accuracy was AWFUL, missing wide open guys by 4 or 5 feet.

If MS wants to start beck that's fine, I don't think anyone could second guess that, I just don't think it's going to matter in the long run. both of these guys are 30 and neither of them is the answer, we've already seen enough to know that.

ponder looked better than either one of these guys today.
