Re: Mcnabb appears to be done and he is the reason for this loss
I think this sends a horrible message to the team, Matty. Yeah, Shanny pulled Mac because he was stinking up the joint, but this has been an ongoing narrative with Shanny, which is more troubling than the fact that McNabb got yanked; that Shanahan is in charge, no questions asked. I get that the head coach is the leader and that the Redskins were in need of a culture change, but is this the change we wanted?
Just to be clear, I'm taking Shanahan over Zorn everyday of the week. Still I have my questions. How did Jim Zorn get more out of Fred Davis, serious talent, than Mike Shanahan? How did Jim Zorn get more production, albeit not very much, out of Devin Thomas than the vaunted Shanahan offensive system? For all the talk about the offensive line being worse off last year than this year, man, I don't know about that either. Save Trent Williams, it looks like we've taken a step backwards. Shanahan took a huge risk by alienating his franchise quarterback and undermining future contract negotiations. Donovan looked off yesterday, in fact he's looked off the past three weeks. My biggest fear is that this may breach the relationship and that we're about to see yet another second round pick and the next 3-4 years flushed down the toilet. By the way, Kyle Shanahan has been underwhelming thus far. |
