That's exactly how I felt, even more that Beck's chances just went up.

(If JLC is right it will be the first time in a while that he broke Skins news.)

Re: Who do you want to start at QB?

That's interesting.. Hopefully he can perform at a high level and help us win games without throwing them away.

Shanny is a man of his word. He preaches competition, and no matter how badly he wanted Beck to become the starter. Rex stepped up and performed to win the job.

History likes to repeat itself. Some chump from the Giants will injure Rex, then we roll with Beck all the way to the Super Bowl and beyond.

Re: Who do you want to start at QB?

Shanahan would have to be crazy to stick with Rex. 4 horrible picks, 9 on the year. It's time for a change.

Rex definitely isnt playing too good but I think QB is the one position where extra time has to be taken before a change is made because of the timing and rhythm of the O. Skins fans are so used to constant change that the second something goes sideways they want a new player in there and in this case I just dont see a change making much of a difference. I think you gotta give Rex half a season. If Beck was a rookie I think I'd make the switch but he's a career back-up who's had his chances and never done anything. The time might come for Beck but to me its still too soon.

Normally I would probably agree with having some patience and giving him a few more games, but Rex is what he is, and he's only proven that these past few games where he's drastically regressed.

It's time to cut the cord on Rex. I think we've seen enough to know he's not going to get any better.

True, Rex is what he is but Beck also is what he is which is why I dont really see that a change will make much of a difference.
