The O-line was shuffled in part because of injury -- and that's what just about every coaching staff all over the league has to do -- also to give the other guys a shot to see what they have. If he'd have stuck with one group who got run over and couldn't protect all season long, the fans would be up in arms. I have no complaints about what he did with what he had up front.
McNabb? Outside of pulling him in Detroit, he has shown remarkable patience despite reports of being disenchanted with his play and lingering injury issues.
He came to an organization that had been woefully mismanaged for 11 straight years, an old, overpaid, roster and season after season with depleted draft picks -- and because Shanahan hasn't corrected it in one offseason and 13 games he might not be "on his game"? Seriously?
Honestly, what did you expect with a 4-12 team?

Again, the standard 'be patient' BS. Injuries are a part of the game, not an excuse. The fact that we dicked around with Willie Parker and Larry Johnson the entire offseason, while Brian Westbrook, Lagarrette Blount, and Marshawn Lynch were on the market is our fault, that's not an excuse either.
Joey Galloway, major retread. Jammal Brown, a waste and a retread. Adam Carriker, Kemo, Philip Buchanan, Artis Hicks, Roydell Williams, Vonnie Holliday - all retreads. And so many more rotten, questionable moves and non-moves Shanny has made.
McNabb is so done here it's not even funny. It wouldn't surprise me if the guy doesn't even want to come back. Of course he'll toe the company line, but let's see what the offseason brings.
Can you honestly say this team is better than last year's team?
