Apparently he can't be placed on the PUP list, since he'd have to be injured BEFORE training camp to do this. IR is still possible I suppose. Sucks, I had hopes for him, but now there's pretty much little to no justification for him to be on our roster. If he is, then Shanahan would violate all his rules of a player proving himself by playing in practice. Banks, Armstrong and even Galloway I guess have shown more than Kelly.

Too bad, MK hurt his hamstring at McNabb's camp. The question will always be - [U][I]did McNabb work his receivers too hard at "Hell week"?[/I][/U]

He'll be fine by sept. 12. Don't freak out

If Clayton is cut, I could see us taking a look but an AH/Clayton swap doesn't make sense to me

So everyone is saying DM won't play because of some tweet. Tweeting is so gay I'll wait for the hard copy.

If I'm not mistaken it was confirmed by several media outlets around lunch time that Shanahan said he wouldn't play.

Really depends on who you follow. There are a lot of good twitter feeds out there, but of course there are probably 10x as much that are bad and worthless.

I try to follow official things, such as the official Capitals, Redskins, Nationals, D.C United etc as well as the big bloggers for the teams, that way I don't run into the problem of whether something is legit or fake.

Re: McNabb out for the Jets
 

I guess you guys didn't the Theismannesqu take down of McNabb on his "intentional grounding"call...

I swear I saw his left leg get caught on the ground and bent backwords as the big guy fell on him.
I'm amazed honestly that he's not done for the season or career. Cause what I witnessed,was the Theismann break that ended his career. Not a pretty site.

Everyone in this forum,should be and feel relieved imo...
Cause he should be wearing a cast instead of walking boot.
Mcnabb is very lucky,we don't play on turf or he was playing at Veterans stadium on that tackle.

I am relieved Shanny is doing this.
And I think a lot of good can come out of Rex starting.

#1)With Mcnabbs previous injury history of missing games,this will allow us to see how good this offense can be run with Grossman and the 1st team on the field.(O-line,Wr's,etc) with grossman at the helm instead of the "Route 66" Rex got against the Ravens.

#2)Rex is not nearly as cool and poised in the Pocket as Mcnabb,so we will get a good look at how the O-line can look. Not to mention McNabbs mobility even at his age is still better than grossman,so we will get to really see how Trent Williams can block the blindside of grossman without the presence of McNabb stepping up in the pocket with his pocket prowness. This game will be a great litmus test for trent Williams and the others imo...

#3)We will get to see which WR's can step up this game with Rex in the game. Who has the consistency to play well with mcnabb or without.

Can Armstrong continue his performance thus far with Rex?
Can Moss adapt to Rex?
How will Cooley or Davis fair with Rex?

Will the jets Defense respect our passing game with Rex or clog the LOS like the ravens did when they were getting burned?

Either way...Rex Ryan is going to be bringin' the House and we don't need McNabb cutting his forehead open and bleeding all over the field the way Eli did against them.

I'm not sure sitting Mcnabb out this game [B]without an injury[/B] would be a bad idea,with Rex Ryan and the jets defensive tendencies to blitz everyone.

Lets sit mcnabb this game...run him for 1 qtr against Arizone if he's close to 100% and prepare for Dallas!

Maybe 2 Qtr's if the line is playing great against Arizona.

That's how I see things anyways.

Re: McNabb out for the Jets
 

Umm...Ace, Rex won't be bringing the house. Trust me. It's just a pre-season game.

Oh and your comment about the 'other' Rex, you're kidding right?

"Other" Rex?
I guess my eyes are playin' tricks on me tonight.
I don't see where I have "other" rex in the post.

What's this related too?

Oh...and you say that Rex Ryan,won't be bringin' the house....
You sure about that?

Cause it didn't look like the Ravens were thinking it was just a "preseason" game the other night. (and Rex Ryan likes to blitz that jets D,so I wouldn't make any wagers on that 12th man)

I will say.. I hope you're right.

Re: McNabb out for the Jets
 

Ok this is not good new at all, but at the same time it isn't surprising that he's injured, cause he always gets injured.

I know there is good info out there but i just don't get the tweet thing. that should not be a big surprise because I havae never even sent a text or received one.

It's not more complicated than that.

Instead of talking to your neighbor in your driveway, think of it as talking to 300 neighbors in your driveway. Except you're all talking at one time, and can hear everyone perfectly clearly.

Someone didn't tell Rex that when they played the Giants. Just ask Eli about those stiches. He hit his head on the facemask of a SAFETY.

Anytime I see a DB in the backfield, the first thing I think of is "it's a blitz".
