Seriously?
The team gave up about 50 sacks and we can't even count the number of botched snaps and QB trips from Rabach.
All of our QBs were running for their lives. Less than a month into the season, McNabb was limping around like he stepped on a porcupine. We all remember Rex's first play behind that line (Suh).
Now, McNabb was horrible himself also, did not grasp the offense and did not seem to want to learn and he often looked like a point guard throwing bounce passes into the post...past his prime obviously, but a little more time to throw and less scrambling on a bum ankle would have at least helped a little.
The O-line was atrocious...which helped a bad QB (for this system) be worse.
Rex knew the offense and was able to get the ball out quicker, thankfully.
The line seemed to grasp the run-blocking schemes very well, we had a great running game with whomeverwas at RB (Portis, Torain, Williams...) but pass protection needed some work, especially in the middle with Casey "Turnstile" Rabach.
