Note to Skins fans,
There is a reason why Coach Shannihan is the Head Coach. He is a proven winner with a couple fingers SB hardware to back it up. THAT puts him in very elite company.
By virtue that you do not agree with or do not understand the Coaches motivations or decisions is unimportant for the most part. Coaches decisions trumps players, fans, etc......you get the idea.
Did MS make the right decision? Who knows?
BUT, by virtue of his experience level and track record against ours (or until something surfaces, to alter things) Coach has to get the nod....fan hysteria not withstanding.
There IS a reason he gets 49m to do this and we don't?

McNabb was probably thinking when Rex got sack/fumbled... "Yep, that's what I've been dealing with all day Rexy." Offensive line play is terrible.

You have some valid points...but I for one believe it is in every fans right to question a coaches decision. I do not subscribe to the "blind faith" philosophy, that just because an employee has had past success that they can do no wrong going forward...he was, after all, fired by the same team he had all this success with. I can't think of another HC that got fired by the same team that he led to 2 Superbowl victories.

And the Denver FO has more experience than all of us too.

with the way our offense was playing, did anyone realistically think a mcnabb led redskins offense was going to put 6?

the subsitution took me by surprise but given just how bad we looked going into that series, i was thinking why not try it.

i dont see the big deal or the big picture with this. players have bad days, bad matchups, etc. mcnabb and the skins werent moving the ball with consistency.

i would have liked to have seen mcnabb run a true 2 min offense thoo, but i dont think the substitution changed the outcome. i think we still wouldnt have scored but i would have liked to seen mcnabb get his chance. the guy can plod through a game looking mediocre then make a big, maybe game winning play.

if i need 1 big play, i might pick mcnabb over manning or brady for that one play.

Nor do I. The point is MS is a professional NFL Head Coach with 2......TWO SB's under his belt.
Much ridiculous BS has been bandied about regarding the motivation and subsequent correctness of benching of one...DM. Until something arises that suggests otherwise....how can the Coach NOT get the benefit of the doubt?

I don't think he should have been benched (thought I don't hate on Grossman quite the way some others do), however, I've watched that final interception a few dozen times now and for the life of me I can't figure out what McNabb was thinking. He says his hand got it, or the ball got tipped, something like that-still, it was hardly enough to account for such a terrible decision there. He telegraphed the play right into triple coverage. That was a horrible play by McNabb. Absolutely horrible

it was simply awful. i'd expect that from a rookie, not an 11 year vet.

Maybe we should pick up Randy Moss to give McNabb a new target now that the Vikings have waived him.

You know what nobody has recognized is the Rex mess at the end may have actually humbled Shanny and vindicated DM at the same time. I'm not happy about the loss but I am glad it happened the way it did.

If Rex drives us downfield for a win,
1- DM losses all self confidence as the leader of the Skins.
2- We have a BIGGER QB controversy in the making
3- We are right back to where we were with Campbell. Only it's DM

No thanks!!! After the bye, DM goes back in and all is well.

Why was Moss released??? If this is true, then we need to get all over him. He will help us greatly at WR
