time to say good morning to our facebook fan of the day.

it is nicola bell. this is a photo of her and her best friend at their 20 year class reunion. hope you had fun at your reunion. if you want to be tomorrow's fan of the day, findous facebook, no space between fox and the number five. just post a comment under nicola's photo. joining us now the sports junkies from 106.7 the fan. you all recovered from your little sleepover? >> no. >> yeah. >> i think i'm better. >> all of us but yais son. >> i slept for about 12 hours yesterday. >> that is impressive. >> had to. >> a lot to catch up on. speaking of catching up, let's talk about the game on sunday. the question now is not what we think is the best option for

quarterback but what coach chan shan thinks. where is he going to go? >> i don't think he has any other option other than turning to john beck for crime. i don't think you can trot out rex grossman after that performance. he has nine picks and two fumbles through five games. you can't have that going forward. your offense has to have last faith in rex grossman. has to go with beck. >> just listening to him yesterday, it sounds like he has faith in rex grossman. question is where is rex's head. if you turn ho him and he has no confidence, it won't be a good situation. santana moss spoke out yesterday and said he believes in rex and thinks rex should be the starter. >> not sure where he is going to go. i think we all assume it will probably be beck but we'll find out tomorrow. i think that, at some point down the road, he will go back to grossman and it will be for the same reason. that is why this team is limb knit -- is limited in what

they can do. we all knew, besides jp, we all new this was going to happen. >> think i don't you can ever reach coach shanahan. but if he makes this move, it shows this has been something in the work for several weeks. maybe something since maybe the dallas game where he lost confidence in rex. if he trots him out there, i think it shows he is on a very short leash. i wouldn't be surprised if you saw beck in relief duty here. you are talking about a quarterback ranked 32nd in the league. how much longer can you continue to trot him out there and have the fans still have that faith j exactly. and they are deal with the same thing in minnesota with donovan mcnabb trying to decide if he will start the game this week and he is the only other person that may be worse than rex grossman. jason, you brought up the point that i was trying to make earlier which is the fact if you go with john beck, and you make that commitment, what

happens when he falters. do you go back to rex grossman or do you let him finish it out. >> that is the situation mike shanahan put himself in and bruce allen. beck will have some moments where he can move the offense. i just think he will falter. it will be a situation where he will be benched based on performance and you will go back to rex. you have. to. >> this is what happens with you have journey man quarterbacks. both guys stink. they don't play 16 straight games. they just don't. >> they don't have any other options. david girard is not an option. he is having back surgery. he is off the board. the trading deadline is today in the nfl. the do the redskins try to get carson palmer away from the cincinnati bengals? the redskins don't have any other options other than turning to grossman if beck stumbles. >> if anybody will pay to get

czar son palmer out of retirement, it will be the redskins. we'll leave it there for now. >> we'll be right back.  look, every day we're using more and more energy. the world needs more energy. where's it going to come from? ♪ that's why right here, in australia, chevron is building one of the biggest natural gas projects in the world. enough power for a city the size of singapore for 50 years. what's it going to do to the planet? natural gas is the cleanest conventional fuel there is. we've got to be smart about this. it's a smart way to go. ♪
