I'm sorry, but I just have to blame the O-Line on this loss. McNabb couldn't get anything going because he had the whole Detroit defensive line in his face before he could turn around. Either that or Rabach was stepping on his foot! What a pathetic line. And what pathetic coaching AND play calling! And what horrible decisions on the inactive list! It sound like Portis is writing most of the responses to this. I can't imagine any sane person wanting to start Grossman over McNabb!

Oh boy, this doesn't look good...

Talked to a longtime #NFL Analyst who has in past been very close to McNabb/@NFL: "He's not staying. He isn't a good fit at all" #Redskins
We ****ing could have had Lamarr Houston instead of the one-year rental in McNabb. Who wouldn't have loved that 4-3 front? Rak, AH, Houston, Jarmon could have been one of the possibilities.

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.

This is one of those situations that is so ridiculous, something must be happening that we just don't know about.

Funny how Mr Accountablilty can't be held accountable for his own stupid mistake. McNabb is your best QB, so he naturally would be your 2 minute drill guy also. Guy can dish it out, but can't take it himself. Shanny should have just told the truth, that it was a knee jerk reaction, etc and admit the mistake.

The fact that Rex fumbled and had it taken to the house validates McNabb and makes Shanahan look like the dummy he is. If I were McNabb and he pulls that shit again I will be very upset and I certainly wouldn't sign with the Skins after the season is done.

Yeah the picks could have given us more depth at least. I am hoping this "controversy" isn't much of a real problem. It was sort of dumb with hindsight being 20/20 to bring him in here with so much building work to do around him.

Shanny better patch things up real soon, or Donovan is bye bye. Grossman isn't a starting QB.

Well, in Houston's case we would have had an excellent D-line for the damn future, but once again, Shanahan misses out on a way to improve the defense.

I'd seriously like to ask Shanahan WTF?! Stop making this situation worse! You ask the players to be men and hold themselves accountable when they make a bad decision so you should be doing the same right now and just admit you screwed the pooch with this decision and are now making it worse by further disrepecting the guy you gave up 2 high draft picks for him to come in to lead your new team. Donovan must thinking this is deja vu all over again.
