    You know why Rex fumbling wasn't funny, because anyone with half a brain could have seen that coming. These coaches are starting to be as dumb as some of the blind fans. McNabb is getting sacked and forced into bad passes not because he's bad but because the Redskin O Line sucks. Did they really think ? Rex Grossman was going to come in there and work some magic? If he anything, he showed how amazing it is that McNabb manages to get anything accomplished.

    So how did Moss go for the strip on the wrong side of the body? If he swiped at the right side the ball definitely would have came loose because dude had it out dancing with it from the 10 yard line on.

    They should, McNabb stays gettin ? on.

    When you have ESPN coming out and flat out saying that McNabb never gets the respect he should as a quarterback and don't make up some BS story supporting his benching you know it's a ? up situation.

    Thats why its funny, grossman had 6 To's in one game,5 to's in another he fumbled twice and threw 2 int's in the SB

    again, BENCHED AT HALFTIME = DIFFERENT THAN BENCHED FOR GAME WINNING DRIVE

    i mean, ya'll really can't see the contrast here? lol

    its like when Phil Jackson tried to make Pippen "the guy" after Jordan left, but wouldn't let him take the game-winning shot in 94

    nothing will ? off a great player like giving him the keys to the team, then snatching them ? back at the final crunch time moment. you have to trust them to make the final play(s).

    Reid TRUSTED McNabb. Shanahan has just announced to the world that he doesn't trust McNabb AT ALL.

    Benched after 8+ seasons of loyalty and defending dude from ? knows how many haters = Different than going "He's the new face of our Franchise!", gassing everybody up, selling a bunch of 5 skins jerseys, then benching him 7 weeks, 4 wins, and 58 minutes later for Rex ? Grossman


    and trading within the division, well McNabb obviously ain't comin back as a Skin next year so that's a moot point

    IT was wrong to do it in that situation but Mcnabb been playing horrible all season....... The only reason they aint 3-5 was Cutler 4 ints was worse than Mcnabbs 2 Ints last week in Chicago.... Mcnabb to me was always an overrated QB

    He's not overrated but when he does bad, it's hard for him to get back in the zone! He must play streaky

    nah that was in the Ravens game and it was halftime.... but to bench him and prevent him from helping win the game is criminal!! Rex Grossman is laughable!!

    Well to me he IS overrated hes good not any where near great... all his pro bowsl aside from 1 or 2 he only made it cause he was an alternate... Hes not clutch and he still inconsistent... too me he isnt a HOF player.....1 great year (first season with TO) and a bunch of good to avg season without winning anything doesnt make you a HOF QB....

    This line of thinking is the exact reason why Shannahan thought that dumb move was the right thing to do. People are looking at the Redskins' woes and trying to blame it all on McNabb. It's not his fault. The offense as a whole has been ? . Yeah, McNabb has thrown some bad passes, but all QBs do that. However, all QBs don't have to work behind an ineffective O Line, with no running game, and only two reasonable weapons (Moss and Cooley) both of which are on the older side of things.

    You would think that what happened would have made this clear to some people. Yeah McNabb has a bunch of 3 and outs in the face of constant pressure with an offense that isn't clicking at all. Grossman gets sacked for a fumble resulting in a TD on his FIRST play. How can that not show you guys that McNabb is not the problem?

    Overrated........ word hes the best qb with payton manning. well has beenhe might not have the blusterous stats but for years he was amogn the best imo.. and he has that Xfactor that Manning doest havent.. wtih Manning to me he has been the best,... and has did it with less since forever... I never seen a elit Qb treated with little to know disrespect as much has he has.. .. This wouldnt happen to Favre, Manning,Brady ? or even eli manning you tell me what it is

    Like i said before.. listen to how they talk about Us and them at quartberback.. there is a glaring difference generally
