Is it finally time to rebuild??

Whoops, wrong thread.

Riley's having a strong game...for those of you who have already quit on him

I think the thing that frustrates me the most is that when you trade for a guy like McNabb you say, "We can win now." There never should have been that attitude coming into a decade long dumpster fire, that even Joe Gibbs couldn't put out.

Step one, admit you have a problem. Snyder did that last year, and Shanahan is doing it this year.

After watching Rex today, it is more painful that we traded for McNabb.

If he doesnt make the probowl this year, he's a bust in my book.


In all seriousness, he could probably step in next year and do just as a good a job as Rocky. Cept Rocky probably gonna want 10-13 guaranteed this offseason, I would pass and start Riley or take that 10-13 give it to a better player(s).

At the time though, trading for McNabb, rebuilding or not, was thought to be a relatively good deal. Ideally, you'd like to keep your picks; but most everybody viewed Dmac as a guy who knew how to win, wasn't 'over the hill'-type old, and gave the team solid veteran leadership.

Outside of Andy Reid, I'll bet there wasn't anybody in the league who could have envisioned how bad he turned out to be.

I highly doubt this.

Maybe you can pull it up somewhere, but I don't recall a legion of naysayers who definitively said McNabb was done and should retire.

The general consensus seemed to be he would give you another two-three seasons of solid, but not spectacular play. The only question was the price tag.

I don't think McNabb is done or that he should retire. I just don't think bringing him HERE was a good idea. Take a team like Arizona or Minnesota who have all the components and would want to win right away, they would have benefited with a McNabb type. And the price tag was too high.

He definitely looks solid, if he's not in the starting lineup next year opening day I'd be surprised.

I would really like to see this OL with Heyer at guard and Montgomery or Lichtensteiger at Center.

I get a feeling that Heyer is the only back up for either tackle position, so they do not want to risk it.
