Tony Sparano happy to see QB John Beck rebound
34 replies
ATVZ400New MemberOPIn a brief career filled with several difficult moments, Sunday was as tough a day as Beck has had. During his final series of snaps, Beck threw back-to-back interceptions and nearly threw a third on the next play, finishing the day with three interceptions and several overthrows.
"At that position, it comes down to decision-making and sometimes a good decision is you got to throw the ball away," Sparano said.
This morning, Beck was much sharper - he was interception-free - and the ball left his hand more cleanly.

That's exactly what I was thinking as I read this article. WTF. I was just about to post the same thing and then thought I may have read the blog wrong or I was crazy.
bkbuffetNew MemberGood to hear he didn't let one bad day keep him down.
That is one thing about Beck you have to admire. He never gives up and never stops trying to improve himself.

Exactly. I'm considering not reading the blogs and just waiting for the transcripts of Sparano's PC's.

Good to hear!

For sure. Can some of our camp reporters clarify this.

There is a lot to admire about John Beck...I think any normal person would root for a guy with Becks character and personality.....
phinpheverNew MemberI love to read the blogs because I can't be there. But if we can't get reliable info what is the point. The only guys I trust anymore are Jim Mandich, Joe Rose, Jimmy Cefalo, Kim Boakemper. I frankly other than these guys don'tr know who to trust in the local media.

I recommend reading our own posters reports regarding the play in TC. They are much better than what the local newspaper reports as it is shown in this case. Finsgirlie, Ozzy and others do a great job.
phinpheverNew MemberI am soory I forgot to mention our great reports from our guys and gals. Many props out to Finsgirlie, Ozzy and others who are doing a great job.

slickj101Forum VeteranThis stood out to me too:
"We spent time talking about this last night as a team, no excuses," Sparano said this afternoon. "At the end of the day, we have to make the right decision."
Probably because my eyes are trained to focus on sentences with "at the end of the day."
But seriously, we all know Sparano is a no BS kind of guy thats going to tell you it how it is. He isnt here to blow sunshine up anyones ass. With that in mind, I can see how he has some respect for Beck going in there and bombing one day and having the nuts to get back in there and rebound like yesterday never happened.
It's very encouraging and refreshing to have a coach like that. I also see a huge difference already in how open and honest Sparano is when it comes to answering questions. That was one of the biggest things that used to piss me off about Cameron and I'm relieved I don't have to sit through that crap again.

Good post bro.
I'm also glad to have a straight-forward coach. He tells it like it is. He's not going to baby you. If he doesn't like what he sees in you, your outta there ala Gore and Wilson.
phinpheverNew MemberWhat I's like to hear is what Offensive Coordinator Dan Henning or Quarterbacks Coach David Lee has said about the QB battle. I haven't heard much from them. If anyone finds any link to any comments or interviews post it please.

gafinfanSupporterAs I said in another thread I will no longer believe or rely on the bloggers in the papers because, in my opinion, they are against John Beck. I have no idea why but none of them has picked John to start and they continually bring up last year. I'll believe John is bad only when I see it with my own eyes or Tony says it is so. :yes::up:

Def. I always appreciate that tough and straight-forward mentality. Tell it how it is, no matter what.
I was ready throw my computer out a window last year listening to Cam's press conferences. I can't stand when coaches sound like politicians. This is football, we don't have time for people to be nice and worrying about being politically correct instead of just being honest. Theres no room for softness and dancing around difficult questions.

jdang307SupporterWhen Sparano came out and said, "JT won't be with us in TC" etc., I said to myself, man this guy has no filter between his brain and his mouth, there is no BS'in with him! WSIWYG with him!

Henning was on the latest episode of Real Sports with Bryant Gumbal (The one featuring Parcells obviously).
I have to say that I'm not all that familiar with Henning and when I first saw Parcells introduce him I did have thoughts of "o boy heres BP lifelong buddy who got the job bc hes an old school guy."
Anyways, they talked to Henning briefly and even though the discussion was more focused on BP, it kind of helps to get a sense of some of Henning's philosophies at the same time. From the little bit that I've seen of him, I was somewhat impressed for how well he handled himself. He seems like another straight-forward guy like the rest of our staff.
Obviously, I'm not really answering your QB question. But I would recommend watching that episode if you get the chance. If your not familiar with Henning like me, it def helps you at least get a sense of who he is.

I dont think its a matter of not having a filter between his brain and mouth. I think its more of respecting his audience (the players, the fans, his staff) and just being honest and open about the situations at hand.
BTW what the hell is WSIWYG?
