Most of the fanbase in general detest Donovan McNabb. Just look at any conversation on ESPN.com whenever this QB drama is brought up. Sure you have your Shannahan bashers, but a majority of the posters are siding and supporting Shannahan.

Fans are jealous and love to see a guy fall down, even if he's a respected guy in the locker room and by other players around the league.
Also, people love authority figures with a great public image of themselves. The "In Shanny I Trust" slogan was being tossed around all over the place for quite a while.
