Step one, admit you have a problem. Snyder did that last year, and Shanahan is doing it this year.
After watching Rex today, it is more painful that we traded for McNabb.

At the time though, trading for McNabb, rebuilding or not, was thought to be a relatively good deal. Ideally, you'd like to keep your picks; but most everybody viewed Dmac as a guy who knew how to win, wasn't 'over the hill'-type old, and gave the team solid veteran leadership.
Outside of Andy Reid, I'll bet there wasn't anybody in the league who could have envisioned how bad he turned out to be.
