Just a couple hours before game time news broke that Rex Grossman would start, not John Beck. What can we expect from Grossman against Miami?
On the optimistic end, Grossman should have an advantage because Miami was game-planning for Beck all week. Grossman and Beck are different QBs -- Grossman reads defenses more quickly and executes the Shanahans' offense more efficiently, whereas Beck is more mobile in and out of the pocket -- and the Miami defense prepared for Beck's strengths and weaknesses, not Grossman's.
On the pessimistic end, Grossman is the same QB he was before -- turnover prone and immobile -- but now with a battered offensive line and some new receivers in the line-up who have not had time to establish a rapport with Grossman.
On balance, I don't think we can expect a resurgence. Grossman should be a slightly less productive version of who he was during his first run as starter.
Continued suckage at the hand of the Shennanigans. Suck for Luck!
