    It's about time BYU had another high profile QB in the NFL.

    Can't wait to watch him shred the Panthers D. Hope the first play is an out and up for an 80 yard TD!

      Yes, hopefully his RB doesn't drop it.

        Yeah, the Santana Moss quotes were a little worrisome, but I can understand why a receiver would stand behind the guy who currently has the starting gig. Maybe he needs to pull a Max Hall and drop some serious f-bombs in his first huddle.

          The game happens way too fast for Beck. He locks in on guys misses open guys misses reads frequently throws into double coverage and takes to long to deliver the ball. He is not an NFL starter.

            Agreed. I'm watching him for the first time this season and he's not inspiring any confidence. Grossman is a known quantity at this point, but Beck is worse and might not get any more chances if he doesn't have a great second half (assuming he isn't benched already).

              Agreed. Beck looks lost out there. That said, Washington's Oline is baaad.

                It is missing two starters so I agree, but Beck is losing before the snap a fair amount of the time and doesn't find people when he has time.

                  I don't know who I would rather see. Grossman appears to be able to do more and make a lot more plays. He also throws the ball to the other team a decent percentage of the time which Beck seems to not do as much. He gets sacked while he is still thinking about it.

                    Beck also has zero WRs and no running game. Also, his offensive line sucks. Buffalo also isn't too shabby and leads the league in takeaways I believe. Given those circumstances, most quarterbacks would fail.

                    But you're right, he's taking a bit too long in his delivery. But I don't think these things are indicative of him not being an NFL starter, yet. I think it's more a reflection of a QB with limited reps at game speed. Hopefully it clicks sooner than later because he won't have much time.

                      37 passing yards in the first half. Beck has been sacked four times and not all of those were his fault. But at least two of them happened because he didn't get the ball out timely.

                        I don't expect him to succeed. He might do everything right and fail under the circumstances. But he is not doing what he need to do is my point. Perhaps time will slow things down for him.

                          Lol. Things are going to start to get ugly in Washington on Monday.

                            Washington is really several players away from competing. The OL needs work still. They need a clear #1 WR, probably a #2 too. On the defensive side of the ball they need some serious help in the secondary. And they need a franchise QB. I'd love that to be JB, but I just don't think he's it. At least not without playmakers and protection around him.

                              Not going to blame him for that series. He had no chance.

                                They couldn't even protect him for 1 second. That was pathetic.
