That's what most folks do on forums like this--opine on things that they likely have not done, on people they have not met. If the forum was confined to those who meet the coaches and play the game then I imagine it would be a pretty silent forum.

And it was NOT an arbitrary act. Quite the contrary--Shanahan explained his deliberate reasoning behind it. Which I disagree with. Why do I disagree with it? Because McNabb has offered me evidence of his abilities over the past 12 years as has Grossman over his career. Coupled with the fact that Grossman was cold and the fact that a decision like this typically confuses a team (which many of the Skins' postgame comments seem to already hint to)--this leads me to form my opinion.

But what do I know. I didn't play or coach football. Just like Todd Haley...

Your indictments of the coaching staff based on nothing but idle speculation is silly.

Touche. I'll just remain on my side of the fence with those that are also very critical of today's awful coaching decision: Tony Dungy, Rodney Harrison, Trevor Matich, Brian Mitchell, Antonio Freeman, John Riggins. I even think some of them coached and played...
