More well-spoken than Kyler FWIW. The talent level, not so much. The hope is he can develop into a decent backup, spot starter (IMO).

"Beck said he has been putting in 13-hour days at the Cardinals' facility, going beyond what Arizona is asking of its rookies. After the rookies are done with their meetings, Beck spends time with offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett and quarterbacks coach Matt Schaub. Beck also has access to first-year head coach Mike LaFleur if questions arise."

It's what you want to hear. We will see if it amounts to anything. I think everyone is hoping Beck works out even if they don't think he will.

Maybe I have QBPTSD after Rosen but I'm not loving all this self-congratulation. "I'm doing all this, I'm doing all that, I'm so confident the other." Meh.
all thats fine..its expected...QB, along with major league pitchers...have to be the most arrogant sons-o-******* out there...

as long as the work going in matches the words coming out...its good...

and,...as long as we aint hearing talk of revenge for those who passed on him...or how stupid 31 teams were for passing on the greatest QB their squad ever had...all that B.S.

Im actually a bit surprised honestly... Beck is displaying a very good mix of confidence and humility... I was expecting him to lean a bit more into the arrogance...

what scares me the most is my own psyche... quicksand,,, I get trapped...

start thinking,..."what if".....

what if we finally found one...
what if we dodged the curse...
If I do not rein in that type of unbridled positivity before it gets to second base its momentum takes it too far too fast for me to stop it...and suddenly its 3am, im in bed trying to sleep....and we are heading into our chance to 3Peat, with a bright young QB that just broke a passing record by throwing for 6000 yards during the regular season,...and then added 1100 yards and 12 Touchdowns in the playoffs...

and I cant sleep...its the excitement,...gotta see how this game plays out....how does he follow up next season??

so yeah...gotta stop that positive stuff right away or it just runs away with me...

too many people mistake physical ability for "Talent"...
Kyler was certainly more athletically gifted than Beck... but there is absolutely zero indication that the game slows down for Kyler more than it does for Beck... or that Murrays instincts are quicker and more accurate.

Kylers talent when running the ball is what made him a first round pick... Beck will never measure up to that. But he may have more talent when it comes to seeing the field...and he certainly has more..much more,..talent when it comes to leading a team.

And has a better understanding of pro concepts and actually applying them.

i wonder how much of the beck pick was monti - and how much (if any) of it was lafleur

if lafleur was pro-beck it might explain monti's reluctance to pay brissett beyond this season

if (i love ifs in the offseason - they drive k9 nuts) lafleur was privy to snead and mcvay's thoughts on carson beck pre-draft... i'm just sayin

the beck pick wasn't just out of left field - monti's spent 1 draft pick (if you'll call it that) on qb

monti had barely gotten rid of kyler - he lucks out with brissett - he's waiting for the 2027 draft that's supposed to be full of qb's - then he goes carson beck in the 3rd?

khaman man - you're telling me carson beck was on monti's radar pre-lafleur?

it's all starting to make sense now - carson beck might be the reason we're not negotiating - lafleur might be the reason we're not extending jacoby brissett

My only real concern with him is arm strength. He floats a lot of balls and i just wish they'd get there with a little more zip on the ball. I hope the injury is fully healed and he can really place it this year. Time will tell.

It's simply a matter of expectations for me. I like it from Beck given where he was taken, and didn't like it from Rosen given he was a "savior". I somehow believe him, whereas JR essentially lost me with the "9 mistakes" comment.
I like what Beck is doing. Just the way he was pumping himself up was reminding me of Rosen.

That’s not saying much tbh. When Kyler came out of college it seemed like he had zero media training. I think part of it was having a helicopter dad.

"Beck said he has been putting in 13-hour days at the Cardinals' facility, going beyond what Arizona is asking of its rookies.

Beck also has access to first-year head coach Mike LaFleur if questions arise."

If true, then his work ethic is night and day from what we heard about Kyler. He may not have the same talent but I can appreciate the work ethic. It’s what made guys like Brady, Peyton, Brees, Rivers so great. I’m not saying he’s going to be anywhere close to those guys but it all starts with the work ethic and attention to detail.

Start Beck week 1 so he can drive us to the #1 pick with ease.
Man… that is such a rough watch for an entire season. Probably worth it in the end IF it means we get the first pick AND gets Monti canned, but yeah… a rough watch for a full season of football.

Not that we would win a lot more games with Brissett, but i think games would at least be competitive on offense here and there throughout the season where we could get excited about the future with a new QB. Beck = total drek of an offense.

Not for me. That would probably be it for me and this team. The first pick doesn’t guarantee anything.

Dvontel felt very smart when we tanked for MHJ.

Isn't that like 12 more hours a day than Kyler put in?

There are so many reasons these young QBs fail outside of even the pre draft stuff. So much of it comes down to how quickly these guys can process information and make the right decisions which is really tough for anyone to determine. I think Beck had some maturity, arm strength, and decision making concerns pre draft. Those just get added to the other things that every QB has to overcome at the NFL level.

We will see.

Yeah...this team has not earned a lot of faith that they could even take advantage of the 1 overall pick.
