I can't wait to see how Rex runs this offense. Way too much negativity surrounding this decision to see what and how Grossman will do in place of McNabb. Was slightly surprise by the move but its how football coaches keep their jobs.
Go Rex!

PER ADAM S....................... Now that the Redskins are officially eliminated from playoffs, trade comp for McNabb is complete. Eagels will get Redskins 2011 4th-rd pick.

How freaking hard is it to understand that Shanahan didn't have enough draft picks to fix the offensive line overnight? Shanahan spent the highest draft pick he had on the most important position on the line. He brought in a mix of veteran free agents for the rest of the positions, and shuffled guys around sometimes due to injury, other times due to poor performance to find out what works best.
Obviously the coaches saw things on film from McNabb which caused them to believe he wasn't making the right decisions despite protection from the line. And to be fair -- the protection up front has been better at times this year. It's amazing to hear so many fans so livid over the benching of a guy who hasn't played well.
And I wouldn't say McNabb is a lock for the Hall of Fame.
you are missing my point. I didn't expect the offensive line to be fixed in one season. I made a point to say its been overlooked for the better part of 10 years. You made my point exactly, we continue to bring in FA's and mix match olineman every year instead of addressing the needs through the draft over the last few years. The coaches bringing McNabb into the mix this year should have been evaluated before bringing him hear then saying he isn't a right fit. I mean the guy has been in the league for 11 years, dont you think there is enough information on McNabb to make that decision before wasting a 2nd and 4th round draft picks? It isn't a coinsodence(SP) the QB play here has been suspect over the last 10 years when the common denominator in the equation has been the horrible offensive line. I didn't nor do I think the oline is fixable in 1 year, it needs a few drafts to get this thing in order. Every year our QB's are sacked, hit, hurried as much or more than any QB in the league. To place the blame on a QB every year is getting old. I mean, Campbell seems to be playing pretty decent in Oakland with a decent oline and a decent running game. They are winning games against division rivals and in the hunt for a playoff berth.
I am not blaming Shanny for everything, however how he has handled certain situations is suspect at best.
One thing that kinda irks me... Let's not act like it's all roses for JC out in Oakland, he's been yanked in and out of the lineup several times this year and hasn't exactly cemented his status as their long term answer.

JC hasn't played bad Matt, yes it helps to have DMC and Bush in the backfield but I give him props the guy is a fighter and has played great the last 2 games. I say he's their guy again next season
