REPORT: Keenum vs. Beck, Thur. night, to win the QB3 job

[The Pencil Neck]

It takes some guys some time to develop. Some guys need to work on technique, some guys need to learn work habits, some guys need to get their heads right.

Arian is a great example of someone who needed to get his head right.

Although I've always expected Beck to make it as our 3rd QB and for Case to go to the PS, I do think that Case has what it takes to be a player in this league. I just think he needs more time to develop the skills and techniques necessary.

I think this is a good move for him. I wouldn't be surprised if Case isn't our QB3 next year (if not sooner.)

Who were the running backs that Foster couldn't beat out to get on the 53? Slaton, Samkon Gado, & Chris Brown? Travis Henry?

All I'm saying, is that it says nothing about Beck vs Keenum that Case got cut & put on the practise squad. All we can really say about it is that Smith/Kubiak has a strategy, a plan, & for right now it includes both Beck (who is not ps elegible) & Case who is.

After last year, the idea of having 4 QBs at your disposal and practicing the system is probably comforting to everyone.
