Re: Mcnabb appears to be done and he is the reason for this loss
just hear mort on mike and mike and he threw out a stat about last minute drives to win games, dmac has 24 the same number as brady, only three other qb's have more.
he also said that since dmac has been here the shannys haven't liked his practice work and that they thought about benching him for grossman after the philly game. he said it stayed in house until now, interesting to say the least

Re: Mcnabb appears to be done and he is the reason for this loss
I have no problem with that.
Is it not amazing the difference in Shanny coverage and JZ coverage with Sally? I wonder if she ghost writes a sports column for the Sun so Zorn doesn't get......lonely?

Re: Mcnabb appears to be done and he is the reason for this loss
I personally think it's hilarious that the Redskins new Health and Wellness ambassador isn't in the "cardiovascular shape" to run a two minute drill. During the same game where he's our leading rusher...
Or wait, it's because of the verbiage of the two minute drill and Grossman's experience.... Shanahan totally shit the bed on this. If benching McNabb was a good decision, MS totally screwed up his "explanations" for doing so. I gotta think McNabb is fuming mad, regardless of how classy he's handling it publicly. All these variations on the rationale behind the benching are making Shanahan look like a giant dope.

McNabb can turn this all around very easily by buying in to what the coaches want from him and working his tail off. I expect that he will. |

Re: Mcnabb appears to be done and he is the reason for this loss
This thread is all about how bad McNabb is or has been playing, but honestly folks, Football is all about big guys up front pushing each other around so that other big guys behind them can make plays. Our big guys up front are not very good at pushing the other team around, so the guys behind them can't make plays. Gibbs won Superbowls with "GREAT" big guys pushing the other team around, while journeyman guys behind them made plays. Rypien? Doug Williams? Thiesman? Non-HOF Qbs who won Superbowls because of great offensive lines. Until this problem is resolved, the rest of these discussions are just the drama that make headlines and newspapers. Like I said in this thread earlier, Joe Montana couldn't make plays with this Skins OL.

Re: Mcnabb appears to be done and he is the reason for this loss
Man this thread is decaying fast. You guys are really starting to freak out.... Our QB got sat down. thats all we really know.
If I had to guess what DS said to MS in their initial interview, I bet it went something like this: (This team and system is out of control and has been for years, I pay big $$$$ to guys that just come in here and then do nothing more than cash the check. I need a coach who can take total control of this team and get these guys playing winning football.) Thats why we seen the cuts like DT and the benching of guys like AH and DM. He's doing his job. It's his team, it's his way, or your out. Don't matter who you are. Guarantee Portis would have been on the bench by now if he was not hurt. Especially after taking that fake fall. Thats what Shanny is doing plain and simple! If we win our next game, all this talk all goes away. |

Re: Mcnabb appears to be done and he is the reason for this loss
Honestly, McNabb the person is a little sensative and gets his feelings hurt easily.
He was very sulky in 2006 when Jeff Garcia started winning and people were forgetting about him, even more so when that offseason (07) some fans were clamoring for Garcia to start over McNabb... In 2008, he also had a small tantrum when he was benched for Kolb after 2 miserable games. After having this now again, he could go into his shell even more, and make the situation worse.

Re: Mcnabb appears to be done and he is the reason for this loss
After getting benched against Baltimore in 2008, he came out and threw 4 TDs against Arizona, and won 4 of his last 5 games throwing 9 TDs and 1 INT.
