I don't care if they have to modify the offense, just do whatever you've got to do to get everyone on the same page and moving forward... together.

You can see it in everyone's body language out there. McNabb is frustrated, they cut to Kyle and he's frustrated. There's a disconnect somewhere.
While I dont agree with Shanny's decision to bench DM for the last series I do like the fact that Shanny isnt in love with the players no matter their name or how much $ they make. If he thinks you arent getting it done you are out of there and I like that.

Definitely agree.

Well in that case we should have half the team (or more) sit the bench. Seems Shannys picking on the High profile players IMO. I think everyone should stand accountable no matter the position or the salary.

I don't see that happening across the board.

This coach is going to soon learn that he too has to be held accountable for his actions and decisions, as well as how his team performs. He's finding out now that there wont be any refuge from the media here which is much different from anything he experienced in Denver. The locals will most definitely stay on his case until he get's it right or be gone.

I agree. For them to bench Donovan McNabb and Haynesworth at their whim, yet march out Casey Rabach every week is sickening.

This McNabb s--tstorm was 100% fabricated by Shanahan.

He's not benching that terrible left guard who can't block a girl. I think it's cause it's his hand picked guy so he's staying in there, even though he's a total 100% liability.
