Re: Rex Grossman on NFL Radio Sunday
To me having a bad line shows me a QB's floor. I wouldn't expect McNabb to put up Peyton Manning type numbers given the level of play up front for most of the year however he still should have been able to put up much more respectable numbers then he did last year. QB ratings might be overrated and granted two of his int's were Hail Mary's at the end of the first half.
However he still threw a terribly low amount of TD passes, which wouldn't have been so bad, if he wasn't throwing for a virtually equal amount of Int's. Seriously if you're going to throw 14 touchdowns in a pass happy offense, with a defense on the other side that as shaky as they were at times, was designed to get turnovers and create a short field, well lets just say I expected more from someone that was the same caliber as McNabb.
Also we keep talking about how bad the receivers were, yet he still had Moss, Cooley, and Armstrong this past year along with Keiland on check downs. Not world beaters by any means but lets not try to pass this off as he didn't have anyone to throw to. And further more people may want to say that Armstrong was a product of McNabb, fact of the matter is he got better when Grossman got the job.
Even Cutler with his regrettable 2009 season was able to post 27 TD's (to 26 Int's) with a lesser receiving corps and line. Obviously not ideal, however if you're going to throw a bunch of Int's you better give me a bunch of TD's as well.
