Shanahan needs a posture coach.

Re: McNabb Press Conference Thread
 

Shanahan didn't think that the opportunity for McNabb would happen, happened very quickly, Shanahan himself was surprised but excited.

listenin to it on 980, but no vid. Pretty standard stuff so far by McNabb

Re: McNabb Press Conference Thread
 

Both McNabb and Shanahan mentioned the comparison to Elway/age before SB.. Shanny added Steve Young was 11th season

Re: McNabb Press Conference Thread
 

Shanny referencing the fact that Steve Young was in his 11th year in SF when he won a SB with him, and Elway was in his 13th/14th years in Denver....

Yeah not too many electric comments usually come out of these

Re: McNabb Press Conference Thread
 

McNabb on Philly fans: he felt that he was treated fairly, never heard him complain.. nor media, not his concern, blocks it out, so many distractions in football, if you let it bother you you won't accomplish anything

well he has complained about it before but not often.. I think his complaint that I'm remembering was more of a media thing

Re: McNabb Press Conference Thread
 

McNabb compares this to being drafted again, having a team that wants you selecting him

'los in the background

Re: McNabb Press Conference Thread
 

lol.. McNabb mentioning talks with Snyder

"Well, he paid for dinner.. that was nice" and Shanny chimed in "Thank you Dan!"

McNabb said he talked with him on the phone after the trade, they talked about plans for the organization, etc

Re: McNabb Press Conference Thread
 

lol saden just snuck in following SS's post :rofl:

Re: McNabb Press Conference Thread
 

You sound like you really wanted to stay in Philly

McNabb: "I'm a Redskin now"

some other stuff..

Yeah he would've liked to have finished there but not in his control

asked about if he has great success here would he go into HOF as a Redskins

not a concern of McNabb's right now

Re: McNabb Press Conference Thread
 

Oh snap! He asked the HOF question.

hahahaha

Re: McNabb Press Conference Thread
 

McNabb mentioned that some of his former teammates were there for the press conference. i'm just listening to it now - any idea which guys showed up? very classy on their part and it shows the kind of loyalty players have for McNabb. Hopefully he's here long enough to develop a similar bond with our players, and that it translates into success on the field.
