Open up your eyes because some Redskins fans want to see a winning product.

If this team wins it wont hinge with the QB play. To be able to win, we gotta run the ball very effectively and play solid defense. I think our QB play can assist with winning, but whats will hurt us more will be bad QB play i.e. bad turnovers

I'd say because the Bears had an awful offensive coaching staff before Martz got there.

We will see, I think the overall feeling is why the hell not give Becks the opportunity. Everyone knows what your gonna get with Grossman: questionable decision making in pivitol situations. Rex's got the arm and ok accurancy, if Rex decision making was better on the field, there would not be a competition at this point and he would be the starter. I dont think the risk is that high with this team as we rebuild.

That's why I prefer Beck. We know all what Grossman can offer and we know that he's not an all-pro QB. On top of that, it isn't as though we're contenders right now (or anywhere close) so there's really no interest in having a mediocre quarterback. If it turns out, as is likely, that Beck isn't fit to hold Grossman's jock strap, then we win 4 games this year instead of 6. But maybe he'll surprise us and we'll find out QB of the future.

Prefer Beck, lol. What a fool

Gruden is a fool too eh

saden1 · 08-25-2011, 11:45 PM

All I know for sure is Clemens should never be on the field.

GTripp0012 · 08-25-2011, 11:46 PM

Clemens has looked this year...like Beck did last year. Just not very good.

Landry44 · 08-25-2011, 11:49 PM

Right now I like Beck. Him and Grossman has played good through out the preseason, but I like Beck skill set. I think his quick release and mobility makes him my choice.

Yeah hard to fairly judge the guy considering he doesn't know the system yet and is playing with mostly scrubs around him.

Exactly my point.

If they're going to be more aggressive with Beck at QB (as they were against Balt.) then it leaves no doubt he should start. We don't have enough talent to match-up and beat teams in close games consistently enough for it to matter. We need to be more explosive and take on some of the risk involved with it. I'd rather go 6-10 spectacularly than 8-8 while eeking out the 8 wins. Either way we miss the playoffs but one approach helps build a stronger foundation for an effective offense in the long run by instilling an attacking culture.

Landry44 · 08-25-2011, 11:53 PM

It's hard to judge any of these guys because they didn't have an offseason.

Except they all didn't have an off-season. They're both playing poker with the same hand.

I like what I've seen out of Beck and the fact that he is mobile and smart.

MTK · 08-26-2011, 12:05 AM

Add another fool to the list, Mark Schlereth just said he thinks Beck wins the job.
