Help! Is this Quackgrass and am I doomed??? after reseeding..

Hi all,

Trying to revitalize my lawn. I have put down top dressing mixed with compost, top quality grass seed (blue grass with fescue and rye mix), seed aide and starter fertilizer.

Anyhow, after I complete this, a friend pointed out that the grass in my lawn that I complained about wasn't the annual crabgrass but rather quackgrass.

After doing some reading, and to my dread, I think it is in deed quackgrass - though I am hoping it's tall fescue!

Here is a pic,this stuff is not easy to take out and comes up in a clump.

So..if this is tall fescue, should I just keep watering and expect the blugrass to eventually takeover (this is desirable),

If this is quackgrass, what do i do :(

Thank you for any comments!
