It's hard to take a guy and change the mechanics that he's had his whole career. From the footwork to the decision making. Some guys can do it (re: Grossman, Vick this year) and some apparently cannot. I don't think that McNabb will be able to make the change.. or is not willing, one of the other. The path of least resistance seems to be his m-o right now.

Which is why you don't go and get yourself an expensive veteran QB past his prime and gamble on him picking up a new offense. Sure, McNabb didn't adjust, and well that's what happens when you've played in one system and comes to a brand new one. Once again, why this front office gambled on a QB learning a new system and playing behind a terrible line? I don't know, but it was a sizeable setback in my opinion.

Clock is ticking down in 2nd half. Who knows when the next half of Redskins football will be...

Grossman and Vick spent a year learning their respective offenses before they played.

I told you guys, the lines not nearly as bad most of you make it out to be.

DynamiteRave · 01-02-2011, 06:50 PM

Why are we so bad at 3rd down conversions? If we're second to last... Who's in last place?

skins89moss · 01-02-2011, 06:50 PM

Why is Roydell Willams playing he better not be back next season.

Bucket · 01-02-2011, 06:51 PM

Well.. They can't be calling that TE across field PA plays we've been hitting all year. Grossman doesn't have the cannon that Mcnabb has, and it showed right there.

Arizona.

Is Terrance Austin just terrible? I mean Roydell Williams is playing over him. Let the young kid play!

Dirtbag59 · 01-02-2011, 06:54 PM

We just pissed off a lot of people in Tampa.

skins89moss · 01-02-2011, 06:54 PM

Well they beat us playing in the cover 2

DynamiteRave · 01-02-2011, 06:54 PM

Wow.

Pathetic Hall. Absolutely pathetic. You were beat. No need to jump and get beat, but look ridiculous on top of that.

Footwork is mostly independent of the system. Sure you'll have different drops but mechanics are mechanics.
