I guess you guys didn't the Theismannesqu take down of McNabb on his "intentional grounding"call...
I swear I saw his left leg get caught on the ground and bent backwords as the big guy fell on him.
I'm amazed honestly that he's not done for the season or career. Cause what I witnessed,was the Theismann break that ended his career. Not a pretty site.
Everyone in this forum,should be and feel relieved imo...
Cause he should be wearing a cast instead of walking boot.
Mcnabb is very lucky,we don't play on turf or he was playing at Veterans stadium on that tackle.
I am relieved Shanny is doing this.
And I think a lot of good can come out of Rex starting.
#1)With Mcnabbs previous injury history of missing games,this will allow us to see how good this offense can be run with Grossman and the 1st team on the field.(O-line,Wr's,etc) with grossman at the helm instead of the "Route 66" Rex got against the Ravens.
#2)Rex is not nearly as cool and poised in the Pocket as Mcnabb,so we will get a good look at how the O-line can look. Not to mention McNabbs mobility even at his age is still better than grossman,so we will get to really see how Trent Williams can block the blindside of grossman without the presence of McNabb stepping up in the pocket with his pocket prowness. This game will be a great litmus test for trent Williams and the others imo...
#3)We will get to see which WR's can step up this game with Rex in the game. Who has the consistency to play well with mcnabb or without.
Can Armstrong continue his performance thus far with Rex?
Can Moss adapt to Rex?
How will Cooley or Davis fair with Rex?
Will the jets Defense respect our passing game with Rex or clog the LOS like the ravens did when they were getting burned?
Either way...Rex Ryan is going to be bringin' the House and we don't need McNabb cutting his forehead open and bleeding all over the field the way Eli did against them.
I'm not sure sitting Mcnabb out this game without an injury would be a bad idea,with Rex Ryan and the jets defensive tendencies to blitz everyone.
Lets sit mcnabb this game...run him for 1 qtr against Arizone if he's close to 100% and prepare for Dallas!
Maybe 2 Qtr's if the line is playing great against Arizona.
That's how I see things anyways.
I know the play you are talking about and when I was watching it I cringed. Totally could have been way worst, I think LJ missed his block on that one.
