Don't we know what Rex has already? Put in the tape from his Chicago days and you can see why he's a backup.
I'd rather see DM get the chance to finish out the season.Agree with the we already know what Rex is part. I'd like to see Beck play out the rest of the season and see what we may have there.

Oh, and I don't think McNabb will be back. I think we'll be able to deal his contract for a 5th round pick to one of the many teams who needs a passer.
I think Cincinnati would be the favorite right now.
I don't think he'll be back either. Mac get's his $3.5 and call it a day.

If they do this then they might as well shut Mcnabb down. It doesn't look like DM will be our starter next season. SMH another drama filled ****ing offseason with the skins, god this is getting old

I'm not so sure Mort broke this anyway, Grant Paulson was talking about it over an hour ago. Anyway, I'm not convinced that McNabb is Kyle's guy and reportedly McNabb isn't all that fond of him, not that he has to be. But I wouldn't be stunned if McNabb was taking snaps elsewhere next year.
Are you all in?
I don't know who broke it, but I heard it on the 12pm SportsCenter. Probably around 12:15-12:30 was the first I heard Mort mention it.
I know this, if McNabb isn't on the roster next year, I'll be blasting Shanahan for this disastrous trade. If we he's not back in B&G, the first signature move of his regime will be repeating the EXACT same behavior that has doomed this franchise for a decade. Not good.
Side note- does anyone think we're going to go into Dallas and win this week? If I had to guess, we get throttled pretty good, regardless of who is taking snaps for us. We're a hot mess right now.

Probably a bigger deal being made out of this than need be. There's been a chance of Grossman starting/playing for a few weeks now. But as long as we had a shot at the playoffs, McNabb was going to be the guy. Now that we're eliminated the need to play McNabb (and keep Landry off IR) isn't really all that pressing.
I don't believe whether DM5 plays or not on Sunday really has any bearing on what they do with him during the off-season. I believe he comes back for another year

I told ya'll that we were going to be talking about the over/under of this happening. But then again, keeping him from being more battered is a-ok with me.

Lets go all the way, we resigned Bartel to the PS. Lets start him! :rolleyes:
McNabb needs to start. If for any other reason, he needs more work to get more comfortable.

It's possible they both broke it within minutes of each other. I'm starting to not even care what Shanny does to be honest. I swear, I just don't care for the guy.

Those of us who are diehard Skins fans who don't care if the team finishes 2-14 as long as the 2 wins are against Dallas! :cheeky-sm
It would be different if we had John Skelton or an unproven rookie we drafted with a plan for the future. We KNOW what Rex can do, even this season...and it's not pretty. He has no unlocked potential or upside, only the high chance for a catastrpohic meltdown. Imagine the "swinging gate" play...that lasts 60 minutes!
