  • Wowwwwwwww Shanahan, really?!

    My picks are turning to shit and the games haven't even been played.....

    Redskins just benched McNabb and are starting Rex Grossman..

    Washington Redskins quarterback Donovan McNabb has been benched and Rex Grossman will start this Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys, according to team sources.


    Players are upset by the move, as I reported all week they would be, if the benching occurred.

    Offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan is using McNabb as a scapegoat, according to multiple Redskins players. The coordinator's credibility has been questioned by players and members of the staff, according to team and league sources.

    "The guys are extremely pissed," one Redskins player told me.

    Grossman played for Kyle Shanahan last year in Houston. Mike Shanahan's son had been seen as a fast-tracked head coaching prospect in many circles, but staunch failures by the Redskins' offense this season have set that back.

    Mike Shanahan was evasive when asked Wednesday if McNabb would start against Dallas, saying that he was "not committing to tell you who the starters are at any position."

    McNabb didn't appreciate that he hadn't yet been told whether he was playing.

    "I would have hoped," McNabb said Wednesday. "That's professionalism. Communication."

    The situation reinforces McNabb's uncertain status in Washington. He signed an extension Nov. 15, but there is a clause allowing Washington to cut ties with him after 2010.

    McNabb has thrown for 3,377 yards with 14 touchdowns and 15 interceptions in 13 starts this season, his first with the team.

    Grossman has appeared in one game this season, replacing McNabb late in the Redskins' 37-25 loss to the Detroit Lions in Week.

    McNabb was unhappy about the switch in the Lions game, Mike Shanahan couldn't come up with a clear explanation for the decision, and Kyle Shanahan and McNabb were at odds over whether or not the quarterback had been tipped off in advance about the possible switch.

            Have you read the contract? Snyder covered his ass on this one, they can drop Mcnabb after the 2010 season with no penalties.

                      I am thinking more long term. They have only been in this shit storm for the last two seasons.

                        McNabb is done for the season..... He played with the Redskins and managed to get one more interception then he did touchdowns this season I'm sure that was a factor.

                        Any chance the skins will be drafting a QB this year?

                          I don't get why they would give McNabb a new deal this year, and by this year I mean just a few weeks ago.

                            there is a claus in the contract that I think allows the Redskins to release him at the end of the year. idk if thats true though
