Watching NBC and they stated that Washington maybe already thinking about next year.. SeemsMcNabb is good at spiking the ball to stop the clock. Usually about 8 yards down the field.
With the Bears on bye this week, I decide to mainly focus on Lions-Skins since I picked up Stafford to replace Romo. Watching the Skins was a very familiar experience for me, to say the least.McNabb had a pretty good game considering his O-Line wasn't able to make it to the field today.

Ahh you Skins fans would've been even more frustrated and angry watching McNabb saunter to the line of scrimmage like he was winning by 14, maybe even hyperventilate or throw up. Shanahan knows what us Philly fans already know, McNabb had no shot of leading the team downfield for a win.
To be fair, with the way the Lions owned the line of scrimmage, nobody was going to lead them down the field there. Don't look now, but over the last 5 games the Lions are giving an average of 185 yds passing per game passing and have 23 sacks (and they blitz as little as any team I have seen this year).Ahh you Skins fans would've been even more frustrated and angry watching McNabb saunter to the line of scrimmage like he was winning by 14, maybe even hyperventilate or throw up.

It only took one play for Rex to prove he hasn't lost his touch.If you get benched for Rex Grossman I think you need to throw in the towel..(Sorry, best "throw towel" there was)And if you are a coach who is even considering Rex as "The Savior", you might want to look for a new career path.

Minnesota with Childress there and a beast to hand off to.McNabb to Arizona or Minnesota next season?
OT rules? :(Seriously??? WTF does Rex know and McNabb doesn't![]()
Philly is 0 - 1 against McNabb.Shanny has been around the block..he does not believe in McNabb already. Looks like Reids decision was correct.
What are you talking about? Chilly's done in Minnesota.Minnesota with Childress there and a beast to hand off to.McNabb to Arizona or Minnesota next season?
As a backup, maybe.McNabb to Arizona or Minnesota next season?
Yeah and even that wasn't enough to prevent Shanny from benching him. In favor of Grossman. Because "Rex gave us a better chance to win." Let that sink in...Rex gave the team a better chance to win, in Shanahan's opinion. Rex.Philly is 0 - 1 against McNabb.Shanny has been around the block..he does not believe in McNabb already.

Haha, good point.What are you talking about? Chilly's done in Minnesota.Minnesota with Childress there and a beast to hand off to.McNabb to Arizona or Minnesota next season?
And yet Kolb and Vick have higher QB ratings. McNabb has an atrocious rating of 76 and ranked 25th in the league. But in fairness, McNabb doesn't have much talent around him.Philly is 0 - 1 against McNabb.Shanny has been around the block..he does not believe in McNabb already.

Correct. i have as much chance of coaching in Minny next year as Childress does.What are you talking about? Chilly's done in Minnesota.Minnesota with Childress there and a beast to hand off to.McNabb to Arizona or Minnesota next season?
speak for yourselfpeyton manning would look like trash on that team..they are horrendousAhh you Skins fans would've been even more frustrated and angry watching McNabb saunter to the line of scrimmage like he was winning by 14, maybe even hyperventilate or throw up. Shanahan knows what us Philly fans already know, McNabb had no shot of leading the team downfield for a win.
But in further fairness, if he did have talent, McNabb would need to consult webmd.com to find another new & improved excuse for his lack of production. Shanny loves his veterans, granted, but has clearly indicated by this move today that he is tired of McNabb's BS IMHO and that his days are numbered. Could be wrong, but I'm just sayin'...And yet Kolb and Vick have higher QB ratings. McNabb has an atrocious rating of 76 and ranked 25th in the league.

do people forget what he did in that drive?After he throws up.McNabb is good at spiking the ball to stop the clock. Usually about 8 yards down the field.
Some QB's that currently have a higher rating then McNabb:Matt CasselMcNabb has an atrocious rating of 76 and ranked 25th in the league.

Did Brett say that? Link?? We all know who REALLY holds the leash there! LOL!! Sorry, didn't mean to change the subject...What are you talking about? Chilly's done in Minnesota.Minnesota with Childress there and a beast to hand off to.McNabb to Arizona or Minnesota next season?
I think he could still be somewhat successful with a more pass oriented team with some weapons...like Arizona. I never felt like he was a good fit for the Skins. I agree with you, his days in Washington are numbered.But in further fairness, if he did have talent, McNabb would need to consult webmd.com to find another new & improved excuse for his lack of production.

Good job, Shanahan.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6NhQHKe6XA
Grossman looked like he had a pretty good handle on the 2 minute offense![]()
And I would agree. Under the Shanny system, he is close to being done. Not to take away from him and what he HAS done in his career, McNabb is probably a better advisor / coordinator rather than an actual starting QB in all honesty.I think he could still be somewhat successful with a more pass oriented team with some weapons...like Arizona.

No, I remember it well. Down 24-14, with 6 minutes left in the Super Bowl, he drove right down the field in 4 minutes. What was the rush?do people forget what he did in that drive?After he throws up.McNabb is good at spiking the ball to stop the clock. Usually about 8 yards down the field.
I was yelling through that entire drive. I couldn't believe how much time he wasted during that drive. The most pathetic thing is, in his career, he never has been able to correct it. He just doesn't understand how to shift into a different mode when time is running out.No, I remember it well.

I think it was just 1 2nd and a conditional pick right? Hope its another 2nd.This has to be one of the worst coaching decisions I can remember in 25 years of watching football.To say that your starting QB is not prepared to run the two minute drill means that you did a POOR job as a coach preparing your team during the week. And If you weren't sold on McNabb then you shouldnt have traded for him to begin with. You don't give up 2 2nd round picks within the division unless you're getting a guy who you are convinced will be in your starting lineup for years to come.What Shanny has done now is undermine his starting QB and let the entire team know he does not believe in him to get it done when it matters most. Historically awful decision. And if they gave up 2 2nds, when they were already thin on draft choices, to rent McNabb for one year then it was a historically bad trade.I swear, every time I think the Skins have turned a corner they pull some ridiculous BS that continues to make a once proud franchise a poster child for how NOT to be successful in the NFL.![]()
