Mcnabb appears to be done and he is the reason for this loss

Rex Grossman, of course, is the kind of player that helps your roster look good on paper, but isn't actually valuable to the team in a backup role where he has to play. Sort of like Jon Kitna.

So do you buy Shanahan's reasoning that Grossman knows the 2 minute offense better?

I willing to bet in this offense KS's from Houston Grossman knows it better then McNabb.

I buy it. And it's troubling. I mentioned earlier in this thread the fact that McNabb hasn't had to learn a new offensive system since his rookie year over a decade ago. Can't teach an old dog.... I dunno. But he's obviously having a tough time grasping the offense- reportedly tougher than the Shanahan's expected. Couple that with weak receivers, a weak line, and 2nd-3rd string type RBs. Well, there you go. Our offense is pretty bad.

Like you said- he and Kyle need to lock themselves in a room together during the bye and get on the same page.
