[QUOTE=Warren;30407]Yeah, the way the Shanahans tossed Beck aside after seeing him in this offense, despite being such big believers in him last summer, isn’t exactly a ringing endorsement:
Big Shan on Beck and Rex Grossman in July: “I believe in the guys. I’ve been doing this for a long time, and I’m putting my reputation on these guys that they can play.”
Lil Shan in August: "My first year as a position coach in the league, Houston had me scout all the quarterbacks coming out that year. That was the
JaMarcus Russell year, with Brady Quinn, Trent Edwards, Kevin Kolb and Beck. So they asked me who I'd pick if I had the 10th pick in the draft. I told them Beck. They said he's not worth the 10th pick in the draft. I was standing on the table for him. I've never seen a guy play that well in college.''

Being the best of those 5 is not a ringing endorsement.
