Im going to assume McNabb will give back that money for his freedom to choose where he wants to finish his career....and I could see him doing very well next year.

I thought he played pretty well here considering. I hope we do release him instead of getting a 5th rounder and sending him to pergatory somewhere.

I wish Shanahan would try to keep McNabb as much as he wants to keep Haynesworth. Well I know he doesn't "want" to keep Haynesworth, but I just wish they could make something work out with McNabb for at least one more year. With the Haynesworth issue, it is just money, and well I feel that it is not going to be expensive to fix all the goofs that Vinny made in the past. But with McNabb it's a 2nd rounder, that could've been very useful last season, that they are wasting away. As much as the FO office has improved with BA and Shanahan, this McNabb failed trade and the continuing circus around Haynesworth are sort of giving a black eye to the improvement they've made.
