No idea, I try to make it to at least 4 games a year. I usually get 2 tickets for free and another two I usually buy. If that game is available it'll be my first freebee.

QuoteDan Snyder apologizes over TV dispute
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on May 4, 2010 6:42 PM ET
New taterskins Senior VP Tony Wyllie is going to have his hands full in Washington.
The taterskins' rocky relationship with the local media had another embarrassing day on Tuesday. taterskins owner Dan Snyder had to apologize to a local news affiliate (ABC) for preventing them from covering a story that the network originally pitched to the team.
Here's the backstory, courtesy of Howard Kurtz of the Washington Post: A Marine lieutenant called the local ABC affiliate, wanting to surprise his taterskins cheerleader wife by coming home from a combat tour early, with cameras in tow.
Nice local story, right?
The taterskins thought so too, but barred ABC from telling the story. Instead, the local NBC affiliate was allowed to cover it. (And presumably tipped off by the taterskins.) NBC is the broadcast partner of the taterskins.
Here's where the story gets especially troubling. A television executive said that the taterskins threatened to fire the cheerleader if she later spoke to the ABC station.
The taterskins deny that claim, but did apologize, essentially admitting they stole the story. Snyder said he plans to make "many changes in personnel and policy"
The Washington Post reports that longtime VP Karl Swanson's departure from the team was in the works before the cheerleader story broke
A despicable organization.

"As far as the conversation about LaVar. I lost a lot of respect for LaVar at that moment, speaking at Sean's funeral. To get up, I really thought that was, umm, I don't know what you call that. LaVar ain't know Sean like that. For the people who did seeing how LaVar was going to portray — I remember me and Sean was going to jump LaVar, you know, for throwing pie at Sean's face his rookie year, and trying to haze Sean, and be the tough guy. He felt like it was a joke. We didn't like that S***. For all the attention LaVar claim, and that him and Sean was cool — they wasn't cool. Sean ain't F*** with LaVar. Sometime, people should STOP (long pause) I don't think you should do that. If you cool with somebody, or you know somebody, you knew 'em. Don't go and portray, set out an image like 'this is your buddy, this is your pal' like you all hung, when y'all really didn't. I don't think that's fair man."

I refuse to read articles about any player, on any team, not showing up for a voluntary event. Soap opera sports.
If it was simply him not showing up to a voluntary workout, I'd agree. But he's also demanded to be traded (now that he's collected $31mil of his $40mil in guaranteed money) and refuses to workout with team trainers. And even that normally would barely be a blip on the radar, but since it's the racists, I thoroughly enjoy seeing over paid free agent signings routinely blow up in their faces.
Yeah, I feel you. I guess I'm just content to read the weekly wrap-up rather than the "he's not at voluntary camp again" article, padded with old news filler. Yawn.
I'm looking forward to McNabb's holdout next year.
That would literally make my penis explode. But I don't think they extended him or anything, did they?

Holy shtein the taterskins are destroying Albert Haynesworth in the press...
QuoteASHBURN, Va. -- Washington taterskins players are calling Albert Haynesworth selfish for skipping the team's mandatory minicamp and demanding a trade.
Haynesworth wasn't present Wednesday morning when the team took the field for practice. The two-time All Pro defensive tackle is staying away because he doesn't want to play in the taterskins' new defensive scheme.
Players responded with some of the harshest comments that can be directed at a teammate.
"Daniels I think I speak for every guy on this team: We all feel like he turned his back on us.
" -- Phillip Daniels
"Albert made a very selfish decision," veteran linebacker London Fletcher said. "When you decide to play a team sport, you have to look at it and think about everybody involved in the situation. This is not golf, tennis, things like that, where it's an all-about-you sport. What he's decided to do is make a decision based on all-about-him.
"It's no different than his attitude and approach to last year's defense, about wanting everything to revolve around him and him making plays. And if it didn't benefit him, he wasn't really willing to do it."
Coach Mike Shanahan revealed that the taterskins told Haynesworth in February that they would agree to release him and let him go to another team -- in exchange for not paying him a $21 million bonus due April 1.
"Obviously, he took the check," Shanahan said, "so I was surprised he wasn't here today. ... Don't take our check and then say that, hey, you don't want to be part of our organization."
The taterskins are now pursuing the return of that $21 million payment, league sources told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
The taterskins can fine Haynesworth up to $9,442 for missing the minicamp practice, hardly a dent in the money he's received from the team for one season's worth of work. He been paid $32 million of the $41 million guaranteed in the seven-year, $100 million contract he signed as a free agent last year.
Haynesworth missed a practice that lasted all of 15 minutes, with the players stretching and running 10 100-yard dashes before a thunderstorm cut the session short. The two-day minicamp wraps up Thursday.
Shanahan did not say what the taterskins will do next. They could release Haynesworth, try to trade him or keep him on the roster and force another showdown when training camp opens July 29.
"We'll make some decisions here shortly," the coach said.
Having pocketed his money, Haynesworth simply wants out of Washington. Unhappy that the taterskins are switching to a 3-4 defense, he prefers a scheme that would allow him the type of freedom he had during his seven seasons with the Tennessee Titans. He has not participated in any team's offseason conditioning program and skipped two voluntary minicamps.
"After many years in the NFL, I know what it takes for me to perform at my highest level," he said in a statement released Tuesday night.
Haynesworth's agent, Chad Speck, did not immediately respond to requests for comment Wednesday.
His teammates, including several respected veterans, were scathing in their comments Wednesday. If Haynesworth does show up for training camp, there will be some fences to mend.
Defensive end Phillip Daniels: "I think I speak for every guy on this team: We all feel like he turned his back on us."
Center Casey Rabach: "It's getting to be selfish. He's hurting the team. It doesn't sit well with the players. ... You can't really count on him right now."
Fletcher: "There's ways he cannot be a taterskin: Give the money back. We'll move on without him. I want teammates who I can depend on, who I can count on, who in the fourth quarter I know is going to be there to make a play or do his job that the defense calls [for]. We need people that we can depend on. And at the end of the day, right now, he's showing that he can't be depended upon. ... Last year we had a lot of selfishness that took place, and we got 4-12 out of that. This year, we can't have that."
Cornerback DeAngelo Hall was one of the few willing to publicly empathize with Haynesworth, saying that "promises were made" about the way Haynesworth would be used when the contract was signed.
Still, even Hall conceded that Haynesworth is all about Haynesworth.
"We know Albert's going to do what he wants to do," Hall said, "whether it's going to benefit him, benefit the team, or if it's a stupid idea or a good idea, he's going to do what he's going to do. It's kind of hard to change his mind."

I love unintentionally creating internet irony.
But seriously, can anyone explain to me what a balk is?
A balk is one of the lesser-known rules in the sport of baseball. A balk restricts the actions of the pitcher when there are runners on base. In general, a balk is called whenever a pitcher interrupts the pitching motion. Here are most of the situations that would cause an umpire to call a balk:
* Pitcher does not come to a complete stop while standing on the pitching rubber.
* During a pitch, ball slips out of a pitcher's hand and crosses the foul line. This would be a 'ball' if there were no runners on base.
* Pitcher begins to make the motions typically associated with his pitching stroke but ceases during its delivery.
* While on the pitching rubber, pitcher throws to a base before or without stepping toward that base. Note that the pitcher can step off of the pitching rubber and throw anywhere.
* Pitcher fakes a throw to an unoccupied base.
* With runners on base, pitcher makes a pitch before the batter has had sufficient time to get set in the batter's box. This would be a 'ball' if there were no runners on base.
* Pitcher makes a pitch while he is not facing the batter.
* Pitcher makes a motion typically associated with his pitching motion but his foot is not touching the pitching rubber.
* After pausing in the pitching position, pitcher removes one hand from the ball. Dropping the ball once on the pitching plate is also ruled a balk.
The underlying principle behind the balk rule is to protect base-runners and would-be base-stealers from being deceived by the pitcher. Deceiving a base-runner is the best way to throw him out. If the deception breaks one of the guidelines above, however, a balk has occurred.
What is the penalty for balking? Each base runner is allowed to advance one base; runners on third advance to home and score one run. The word 'balk' has also moved into colloquial speech and is used to refer to an intentional and abrupt stop.
I think he was calling the Slovenians "balk" as in, some kind of slang for balkan. Which I think is like calling a Puerto Rican, a Mexican. Or more accurately, wetback.
This is all extremely helpful.

Skins traded for malcontent but talented OT Jamaal Brown.

The skins will send their either a 3rd or 4th next year to the Saints, whichever one they don't have to send to the Iggs for Donnie "Black Jesus" McNabb.
Also, if the Saints get the 3rd, they send back a 5th to Washington. If the Eagles get the 3rd, the Saints send back a conditional 6th/7th. And if Brown plays 90% of the snaps or makes the Pro Bowl, Washington gives up a 2012 6th...

And this is the same guy that compared Reggie Brown to Chad Johnson:
QuoteI've been high on Colt Brennan for three years. I've watched the kid grow since his tough go in Colorado. The kid is for real. I was happy to see him perform well last night. I know he played against second and third string players, but what I took out of it was his poise, accuracy and ability to make tough throws. Say what you want about the competition he faced, but he made some throws last night that were incredible. Did you see that throw he made to Billy McMullen on the far sideline? Yes, Billy McMullen made a big play downfield. Brennan hit a 20-yard up and out pattern and placed it right over his shoulder. It's one of the toughest throws for a QB to make and Brennan threaded it. Also, the first touchdown pass he threw was pretty. I believe the receiver was Mann and he was covered in the endzone and Brennan placed it in the one spot that made it impossible for the defender to defend.
The one thing that Colt has that the other QBs in this class don't have is a swagger. He knows he's good and that he belongs. He has a confidence about his ability that gives him the "it" factor that you look for. Although he doesn't have the strongest arm, it's above average, Brennan is highly accurate and like I said the West Coast offense fits his ability perfectly. I think in two years you will see Colt as the starter in Washington and has the potential to terrorize the NFC East for years to come.
bhahahahahaha
Quote
I'm not looking to get into an argument, because I trust my opinion and I know how good this kid is. I don't think much of Joe Flacco. I think the kid is overrated and he was basically a first round pick because of the hype he received during the Senior Bowl and at the Combine. If Colt Brennan were 6-6 and 230 pounds, I don't think it would be close as to who would be the better prospect. To me, Brennan is further along than Flacco and I think in a few years Brennan will be the better pro. I like Henne and I think he will be a very good pro.
My observations of Brennan were not off. If he decided to enter the draft after his junior year, he would have been a early second round draft pick, but he wanted to go back to Hawaii and complete an undefeated season and he accomplished that. Throw the Georgia game out the window, because his offensive line didn't show up.
Brennan attracts more negative press than positive, because of his past. When I was at the Senior Bowl and at the Combine, there wasn't a player who attracted more press than Brennan. I'd say 90-percent of the journalists and reporters who were present in the interview room surrounded him. If he's able to duplicate the performance he had on Sunday night, in a regular season game as a starter, he will be a star in the league. He has a following like no other player in this draft. People either love him or hate him and he's the kind of person who's going to prove all of the doubters wrong and all of the people who backed him right.
I spent a lot of time with him, I got to know him as a person and as a player. I think this kid is the real deal and he has all the talent in the world. Being with Jim Zorn in Washington is a gift and now that Zorn has him under his wing, Brennan will be a future All-Pro. Get a pen and write that down.

It's really not necessary. He's Spadaro's hand-picked draft "expert" and I had a battle with him over Colt Brennan.
He insisted that Brennan was going to be an All-Pro and I mocked him severely over it.
Brennan got released so now I'm having a little fun with him. SD already posted the highlights...

QB Donovan McNabb. Many of us have come to the conclusion that he just doesn't look that great in practice most of the time. He hasn't exactly been on-target with his throws. He was better in the red zone, but even in the 7 on 7s – with no rush, it's easier to find open targets – he was off. Got picked by Carlos Rogers on one; would have been a touchdown.
John Riggins rips McNabb (http://www.myfoxphilly.com/dpp/sports/eagles/john-riggins-rips-donovan-mcnabb)
QuoteJohn Riggins Rips Donovan McNabb
NFL legend and Washington taterskins icon John Riggins doesn't have a high opinion of former Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb.
Riggins is best known for being a Super Bowl hero and calling former U.S. Supreme Court justice Sandra Day O'Connor "Sandy Baby" at a press event.
But on Thursday, Riggins called McNabb something else: a wanna-be politician.
"I think he'll come closer to winning the election then he will becoming a Super Bowl winning quarterback," Riggins told XM Sirius radio in an interview.
Riggins has been openly critical of taterskins' owner Daniel Snyder.
In Washington, press coverage has presented McNabb as the savior of the taterskins' franchise and McNabb has openly talked about getting involved in the Washington scene after he's done playing football.
However, McNabb has not agreed to a contract extension with the taterskins and he will be a free agent after his season.
There also have been reports that McNabb has been inconsistent at taterskins training camp as he learns a new offense for the first time in 11 seasons.
Is there anyone that's gone to Washington since James Thrash that hasn't been called the savior of their franchise?
Obama?
Dan Snyder would rather have Basil Marceaux.

It would have been more entertaining if he'd punched the kid.
lol @ donovans gut
fag
kid needs a haircut something bad
The further removed from Donovan McNabb the Eagles get the happier I am. I spent so many years loving him, then liking him, then trying to justify liking him, then hating him, seeing his dumb fat ass in the taterskins' locker room is just farging perfect.
I think that's how Joe Banner feels too.

QB Donovan McNabb. He still could be adjusting to the offense. He could be bothered by the fact that he really only has one proven receiver. Or he could just be having a bad camp. It's only 10 days into camp so it's not time to panic. However, McNabb had another bad day Saturday. He's waiting too long after the receiver cuts to make the pass, a sign that he perhaps does not yet trust them. Receivers who have broken free on crossing patterns often have to reach back inside to make a catch. His passes have allowed beaten defenders to recover. At what point do you get concerned? If he has a bad preseason, too.
Quote
Is it time to be worried about Donovan McNabb? Doubt it, though one Eagles insider said he typically looked better in camp with Philadelphia. The thing to keep in mind, though – as anyone who has watched him knows; and has been pointed out to me by the insider and even an Eagle fan via email -- is that McNabb's best trait is keeping plays alive after they break down. In practices, there is less improvisation; in games, there will be plenty.
they watched him for ten years and this crap is news, lol
Same ole', same ole'.
McNabb heckled in training camp (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/trainingcamp10/news/story?id=5455954)
QuoteMcNabb, on the other hand, must be wondering if he is back in Philadelphia.
On the first day of taterskins training camp, a heckler stood near the front of the crowd and criticized every bad pass, every bobbled ball and pined out loud for the return of departed quarterback Jason Campbell.
"Must have been a great catch," the fan yelled after McNabb completed one pass, "because it couldn't have been a good throw."
Ha.
From the above article:
Quote"I'm an older guy now. I'm more mature. Responsible. Just really looking for that sexier look from the 30-and-over league -- for the ladies who are paying attention," he said.
I'm so glad this guy is gone. One down.
j didnt get out after the guitar show in dallas....he aint gettin out now
sickening
CSN Philly played a clip of him yesterday saying something to the effect of (paraphrasing): "you try to have a good first performance as a team, but if one person plays well and the others don't then you're not getting done what you want to do" or something like that.
He is ridiculously unintelligent, which is why he won't be "the next Elway" for Shanahan.
ugh the bus stop on my block just covered one whole side with an 8 foot picture of mcnabbs face. thinking about walking a new way to work. thats a lie but i won't enjoy it.
mcnabb is a lot of things...and a lot of bad things...but hes the opposite of unintelligent...much less ridiculously so...did you watch him for a decade ff?
You clearly have a very loose definition of intelligence.
Athletic? Yes.
Strong? Yes.
Smart? Ha.
well i dont know how he is at geometry but hes definitely football smart and overall seems like a pretty smart guy...i mean just normal intelligence like your average person...not trying to say hes a mensa member but of all the athletes in the world mcnabb is probably in the bottom 20 of ones youd call ridiculously dumb
Explain how he's football smart. Seriously. He had two reads: the primary one and throwing it away.
he ran a super complicated offense at high level for a decade
i dont even wanna have this conversation
your comment is so incredibly off base its making me defend someone i despise
Keep provoking him, FF. I wanna see him defend McNabb more.
screw off texan
lol
That doesn't cut me as deep as defending 5 does for you.
We'll see how smart he is working in Shanny's offense this year.
He didn't know the overtime rules. Stop being such a damned hippo IGY.
i really dont even know how to respond to anyone who thinks donovan mcnabb is stupid....you i expect it from as you arent a sports guy...ff tho shocks me because i never pegged him as hating him that much
Quote from: FastFreddie on August 12, 2010, 08:02:48 PM
We'll see how smart he is working in Shanny's offense this year.
shanny offense is a pretty straight forward system...especially for supposedly being west coastish
i expect mcnabb to have the same problems he always had with accuracy...clock management intestinal fortitude ect....but hes not going to not understand it...hes been running either a d1 football offense or a highly sophisticated pro offense for basically half his life
I really don't hate him. Most athletes aren't smart. He's a notch lower than most. He's a guy who, at his peak, was preposterously strong and fast, with a strong arm. None of that added up to brains. Even most of his biggest fans wouldn't call him a cerebral guy.
and not any of his biggest haters would call him ridiculously dumb....in fact until today i have never in my life even heard his intelligence brought up in any capacity good or bad....is he peyton manning no....is he ryan leaf no
if manning is a 10 and leaf a 1 mcnabb is probably a 6 or 7...again you cant be below average intelligence and put up the numbers he did in reids offense...an offense that has eaten up many a pass catcher with its complexities
in terms of the real world he seems to be a regular well spoken college graduate no different than most people on this board...i mean if hes ridiculously dumb then what are we?

dont read it....its not like you watch games anyway
I don't think McNabb is rock dumb; I think he's pretty average, actually. That said, he certainly tries to project as smarter than he is. But there's been talk of him being not the sharpest tack in the past. He had a ridiculously low Wonderlic score of 14, which is particularly egregious for a QB. But I don't think he's flat out dumb. More than anything, I think his trying to sound smart makes him seem dumber than he actually is.
yeah hes a first class phony...like i said theres lots wrong with him but not being intelligent isnt one of them
and the wonderlic is a joke...brady quinn scored higher than peyton manning
The Wonderlic is a dumbed down intelligence test. It has nothing to do with football. McNabb is an Syacuse educated idiot who talks exactly like I would expect someone to talk who has gone to good schools only because his parents had money and he had talent. He's not smart, he's just been lucky enough to be well educated.
In a vacuum, the Wonderlic might not be a fantastic indicator of intelligence. That said, the players know they have to take it, and they know what kind of questions are going to be on it...so, unless you're a little retarded, there's no reason not to be prepared and do well in taking it.
yikes

Quote"You'll have to ask them, but I guess they'll tell you 'headaches' again," said Haynesworth, emphasizing the word by holding his fingers in the air to simulate quotation marks. "It was part of it, but it wasn't all of it. They left out a whole lot of stuff."
Why would the taterskins do that?
"I don't know. I guess make yourself look good, I don't know. Make me look bad for not going to their offseason conditioning program," Haynesworth said. "But, I mean, next year I'm not coming either. I'll be on my trainer again, and I'll get back in the same shape I'm in, and feel good about myself."
It's nice to hear that Haynesworth feels good about himself.

More Haynesworth (http://voices.washingtonpost.com/taterskinsinsider/albert-haynesworth/rhabdomyolysis-sidelined-hayne.html)
QuoteAdd another problem to the long list of issues stirring conflict between Coach Mike Shanahan and defensive lineman Albert Haynesworth: rhabdomyolysis.
The condition causes the rapid breakdown of skeletal muscle because of injury to muscle tissue, and rhabdomyolysis is what sidelined Haynesworth in practice last week, three people familiar with the situation said Sunday.
Tony Wyllie, taterskins' senior vice president, said Sunday afternoon the team would have no comment on Haynesworth until Coach Mike Shanahan addreses the media after practice Monday.
Shanahan has discussed Haynesworth's symptoms but hasn't revealed an exact diagnosis. Experts say that Haynesworth's ability to play in Saturday's game likely means he's recovered from the condition. They also warn, though, that the fact that Haynesworth was suffering from rhabdomyolsis might also indicate that he wasn't in proper shape to practice in the summer heat.
"Rhabdomyolysis is basically a condition in which you have extensive muscle breakdown," said Dr. Lynne P. Yao, chairman-elect of the National Kidney Foundation. "It doesn't happen as often in well-conditioned athletes, but if there's really extreme circumstances -- like extremely hot weather -- than that could happen. when you have large amounts of muscle breakdown."

Quotetaterskins licking wounds after Ravens game
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on August 23, 2010 11:52 AM ET
Donovan McNabb entered the taterskins locker room on Monday in a walking boot, a "precautionary" measure after the quarterback was banged around on Saturday against Baltimore.
McNabb sat on the sidelines in the second half of the game with ankle wrapped in ice.
Part of the reason McNabb got hit so much was the play of rookie tackle Trent Williams, who was repeatedly abused by Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs. Williams had his right arm wrapped on Monday after injuring his elbow. Williams hopes to practice this week, but his performance was a bigger concern than his injury.
The injuries to Williams and McNabb don't appear too serious, but safety Kareem Moore isn't as lucky. It's believed Moore could miss 4-6 weeks with a knee injury. His teammate Reed Doughty only confirmed that Moore, a projected starter at free safety, won't be out for the season.
The team signed veteran safety Tyrone Carter Monday according to Brad Biggs of NFP, indicating Moore will be out for a while. The taterskins have had a drama-filled camp because of Albert Haynesworth, but have been largely injury-free to this point.
That streak of luck ended on Saturday night against Baltimore.

Quote'Skins in negotiations with Titans to deal Haynesworth
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- People with knowledge of the negotiations said Tuesday that the Washington taterskins and the Tennessee Titans are in discussions about a trade of disgruntled defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth.
The sources spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the talks are confidential.
Washington signed Haynesworth to a $100 million contract in 2009 as a free agent, and the tackle accepted a $21 million bonus in April. It's been a nonstop battle of wills between coach Mike Shanahan and Haynesworth since then.
The Titans declined to comment, and the taterskins did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
ESPN first reported the teams were discussing a possible Haynesworth deal.

and just in those circumstances? what if he beats a good defense in warm weather? or leads a winning drive but with more than 2 min left?
skins fans in my neighborhood were bitching about Kubiak icing the kicker. They even went as far as to say Mike Shanahan has "too much class" to pull a "stunt" like that. BWAHAHAHAHA - skins fans are consistently entertaining.
Yeah, wasn't Shanny the guy who pretty much started doing that before anyone else?
they changed the rules where you can only do one at a time i thought because of Shanny. Fargtards
From the Denver Broncos Wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denver_Broncos):
QuoteSignature moment: September 16, 2007 – As Raiders kicker Sebastian Janikowski kicked what would have been a game-winning field goal during overtime, Broncos head coach Mike Shanahan had called a timeout right before Janikowski made it. After the timeout, Janikowski again attempted the field goal, but this time it hit the upright and was no good. Denver then proceeded to win the game on a field goal by kicker Jason Elam.
HAHAHAHAHA
King has this gem in his MMQB column (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/writers/peter_king/09/19/mmqb/index.html), right after he spends the beginning of the column verbally fellating Vick:

And lol at the Shanahan wouldn't have iced the guy because he's too classy. He is the coach who gave his player a farging lie detector test!!
he's also the guy that invented freezing the kicker at the last possible second.

I'm sure the skins were just looking forward to this week and didn't want to show anything that would give away their genius gameplan to beat the Eagles. That Shanahan... ALWAYS one step ahead. (and before him Zorn, and before him jesus Gibbs, etc et al yadda yadda)

That would be my first instinct too, but I think they might actually be interested in him as a receiver, not just a spy. Wow, right?
With Freddie Mitchell still on the market? I find that highly unlikely.
He's a victim of a vast conspiracy.
Didn't the skins take two wide receivers above desean in that draft year?
They took Devin Thomas at #34 overall and Malcolm Kelly at #51. DeSean was taken at #49.
So Haynesworth says he let the $21mil bonus check sit in his house for a couple weeks while he pondered whether or not he wanted to play for the skins. So he cashed it and skipped offseason workouts. Lol.
sound business model
Anyone else think its funny that they sent him an actual check? What is this, 1986? Ever heard of direct deposit you old jerkoffs.
Was it one of those huge Lotto checks? Maybe it was too heavy to cash
Portis is out 4-6 weeks
They're better without him.

Holy shtein what a catch
somehow i knew mcnabb was gonna take an extra 3 fantasy points from me there at the end
another chance to tie/win the game in the 4th, and another failure for mcnabb
yo j, was this one on shanahan, the defense, not having portis, santana moss, jesus, the fans, the media, manning, god, the phillies or rjs. cause it wasnt on mcnabb, right?
That was a little too close there, though I thought live that pass was beyond Galloway anyway. Watching the replay I'm not so sure.

QuoteLook on Shanahan's face: "I wish I had Elway or a real 2-minute QB." Just awful by McNabb and Im a fan. But that was ridiculous.
from whitlock
enough cannot be said about how awful that drive was. i wonder if people will finally see the truth about 5 now that hes conspicuously clocking out of games in the last 5 minutes for a 2nd team.
the last 3 mins of that game was Mcnabb-Tastic. Some things never change
My favorite is that they post the stat on McNabb:
"24 game tying or game winning drives in 4th quarter or overtime"
In 12 seasons! That is not very good.
you could already hear the frustration in most of the big time dc sports people last night. one of the nbc guys even said something like "this is what the philly fans have been saying to us all along. he'll make some great plays but some amazingly stupid plays also."
Im assuming they were talking about the deep bomb he threw to armstrong when it was 4th and 10? you mean to tell me that they dont have multiple 10 yd routes designed?
I give credit to the eagles for shipping mcnabb to a receiving corp worse than what he had here in philly back in the day.
pretty fun to watch that a team which had larry johnson, willie parker, clinton portis, 2 high draft picks at wide receiver in malcom kelly and devin thomas is starting ryan torain and WRs named armstrong and banks.

Fred Davis was wide open and could have picked up at least 20 yards.

He tried to get a fifth down, but it came back up on him.

Both at this point.
When I joined that site back when Spurrier was embarrassing himself, it wasn't much bigger than CF is now. Everyone sort of knew all the posters schticks, but there were people who were actually willing to talk football. As painful as Art was with his homerism sometimes, it was at least fun arguing with them. Now it's like a watered down version of TATE run by the gestapo.
I've been reading there since Spurrier and their excitement of the pre-season game in Japan. Art, Bubba, tr1 and some of the others were hilarious in their homerism.
Now it seems that Art is never around and I know Bubba died (ever find out what happened?) and it seems like the rest are mods who are overly anal.
was it art or bubba who was the complete ahole...or were they both?
both
Art even more because he started "covering" the games for the website and thought he was king shtein
Don't forget Art's "we are better than you" articles.
arts road trip blogs about playing basketball with larry michael and jerking off gregg williams in the elevator bring back the memories
Art is incredibly pompous and arrogant.
I'm not sure how Bubba died, but some people had said he was significantly overweight.
He and tr1 more or less drove me away from that site by themselves. You can have a football discussion with someone like Art, because even with his ridiculous homerism and arrogance, he can at least make arguments that were entertaining to counter. Bubba, tr, and pretty much everyone else who posts now are impossible to deal with without making your eyes bleed.
I miss Art's blogs and that other pompous clown JimmiJo's postings from taterskins Park.
And do those two iceholes still organize the send off's and welcome home's?
tr1 and bubba would never debate, always mock or ignore the facts.
Has anyone called them on the fact that McNabb is theirs now and all those years they ripped him?
Yes they're ridiculously hypocritical on all things 5, though I don't find that particularly shocking. They're hypocritical about everything else anyway, and people are hyper defensive about their own players usually.

That's what I'm saying. I don't think they're unique with the McNabb situation, but at least some of us stated our reservations about Vick when he showed up regarding his ability to be a solid QB. Most of them just went from "Haha McHeart-throb is the wersst ever and he sucks haha" to "He's so good, you guys are so dumb for letting him go" within a day of acquiring him.
they were half right
the bedwetter should have been traded to dallas so that ES would have to find a way to say both teams made a mistake

Very true, I never thought he was a good QB. Still not sure he is, though he has played very well.
Shanahan trying to teach Donovan how to properly throw a football (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/10/20/AR2010102006162.html)
I'm sure he'll be able to integrate this feedback into his game ASAP.
no time like mid-season to start tinkering with a throwing motion.
McNabb played down any changes, saying his footwork is "one of many" areas coaches have been trying to improve. "There's people with footwork worse than mine," he said.
Vintage. Does this guy ever just take the blame for anything?
Yeah, it seems throughout the whole article that he is not exactly keen on getting coached up in this way. Plus, there are few to zero QB's with worse footwork who put up better numbers and win bigger games. But he's right... there are plenty of guys who suck even worse. So, he's cool.
In Mcnabbs mind, he is a shoe-in for the Hall of Fame so the headlines are crushing his pusy even more.
"Do you know where I've been throwing like this? Ive been to 5 god-damn championships and a Superbowl. Im sorry...whats your name again...LaFleur? Just checking."
as long as there are people out there worse than donnie its all good and no need for improvement or change
Winners can't stand if there is even one better. Losers are cool if at least one is worse.
In that way Donovan and the Eagles' FO really were a great fit.
NFL.com piece basically says that McNabb is better than the crap the skins had but that's about it (http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81b847b5/article/mcnabb-has-improved-taterskins-but-his-play-remains-unevolved?module=HP_spotlight)
thats generally the best thing you can say about mcnabb
that hes better than the awful qb who came before him
i thought for certain once mcnabb was traded that meant bobby hoying would be qb'ing the eagles this year
5th best QB in the division

i guess this thread should be shut down considering it's here to talk shtein about about the taterskins but beat the eagles at home.
talk shtein not stupidity
IGY has to hear more skins fans talking inane shtein than any of us could imagine, so I'll let him bitch and moan about when and how we make fun of them. That said it won't stop anyone from doing it.
Despite those scintillating wins over the Eagles in Philly and the Bears in Chicago, the skins are still pretty bad.

words cant really describe how bad the bed wetter is
how can you trade a proven veteran quarterback for a guy who hasn't played?
Then he runs for 40 yards and throws a TD.
Jinx.
brandon banks is ureal...he has to have more total yards than the bed wetter....and hes had a 75 yarder called back
bedwetter strikes again
I take it bedwetter is your new pet name for McNabb?
third and one on the 10 down by 5 and the lions throw it in the end zone and it should have been picked.....and then they go for it on 4th down....just horrid offensive playcalling....
which is all rewarded with a td pass plus a two point conversion
bedwetter in a huge position to drive the length for the winning score (or tie fg)....thts if brandon banks doesnt return the kick 90 yards
Bedwetter is unfunny
Wow.....4th and 10 and McNabb gets sacked. Meanwhile, IGY's coin purse just exploded.
classic bedwetter throwing a 50 yard pass into double coverage on the gw drive...next play tossed one right into the hands of a lion
next play takes a sack on 4th down
total first downs by the bedwetter on the huge gw drive: 0
And unoriginal
Game over.
mcnabb now 0 for his last 250 in clutch drives

No matter what you think of McNabb, you don't farging pull him for Rex Grossman. Shanny got exactly what he deserved on that one.
lol
Ahahaha...damn what a train wreck.
It doesn't matter who coaches that team - they're garbage.
With as much time as Detroit has spent putting pressure on McNabb all game, I don't see the logic in replacing him with a less mobile, less accurate QB. McNabb doesn't appear to be hurt either.
The only thing that would have been funnier is if Grossman actually took them down field to win and Skins fans start calling for Rex to be the starter.
whats funny is it wasnt just a turnover where they can run the clock out...they score a def td so shanny now has to run a qb out there again

because mcnabb is a farging piece of shtein in clutch situations....granted rex grossman has little to no chance but whatever miniscule chance he did have to drive the team was higher than the bedwetters
Yeah if the Skins didn't have a decent record, I would have been rooting for Rex to move them there. THAT would have been funny.
McNabb less than 5 mins sets all sorts of records for badness. How many more times is he going to close his eyes and throw it up 60 yards and cross his fingers? Is that so he doesn't have to run a 2 min offense?
I wonder if McNabb is going to have a conversation with Shanny to let him know how he feels about that decision?
And yes, McNabb will be morphing into Elway any minute now. ::)
I still don't really have any ill will towards Donovan, but the constant media fellating gets farging old. It's about time people see what he does towards the end of games.
that benching couldnt have happened to a more appropriate guy...i was waiting for the uncomfortable smile/laugh from him but even that didnt even come
you dont have andy shielding you anymore BEDWETTER
the ironic part of this is that shanahan recognizes mcnabbs end of game ineptitude but i dont know if he fully understands yet how little intestinal fortitude the guy has and that by sitting him there he ruined him forever

He holds the keyboard upright and thrusts furiously. At least, that's how I normally do it.
QuoteShanahan: "I thought (Grossman) gave us the best chance to win" 12 minutes ago via Mobile Web
Asked how McNabb felt, Shanahan said, "He understands" 12 minutes ago via Mobile Web
Says Grossman is more comfortable with offense and capable of running 2 min offense 13 minutes ago via Mobile Web
Shanahan thought Grossman gave Skins better chance at end than McNabb. McNabb wasn't pulled cuz of health
Ouch!
He said 5 is still the starter though.
hes absolutely 100% correct...youd like to have a better back up than rex but bottom oine is he did give them a better chance in that spot...
maybe mcnabbs one legacy in the nfl will be that he introduced a new position to the league.....the two minute qb
If Vick keeps up his play this season he's so better than McNabb it's just hilarious. Vick was talked about being cut after that party incident and now he's the guy playing out of his mind and McNabb is already being run out of DC.
Personally I like 5 as a person, but not as the QB I want driving it down the field for a game winning drive. How he manages to get away with his QB playing ineptitude is downright amazing. The talk in DC this week will more than likely center on the fact that Shanny pulled him, not bc of how many rookie-ass mistakes he was making.
I think the media really needs to address this bc 5 has been given a free pass his whole career. For him to be in the league as long as he has and continue to make rookie-ass mistakes and for no one to speak on it for the past 7 years is crazy. It seems that every time his team is down on a possible gw drive they flash that graphic "McNabb has engineered 24 GW drives"
I missed this game but I take it "bedwetter" (like it igy :yay) was benched. For Grossman? Time to head over to the Foreskin Nation board.
Skins got the ball down 3 with 3 mins left and Donovan and co went 4 and out. Lions kicked a FG. Skins get the ball with 2 mins left down 6 and they pulled him for Grossman because Shanahan said Grossman gave them a better chance to win in a 2 min situation.

It's really not a very good list for Donnie the last 5 years when you look at each game. The Cincy debacle listed as a 4th qtr comeback should tell you all you need to know about those lists.

Ha. Mcnabb is the starting QB and Grossman is the taterskins closer.
Deadspin says what we don't hear often from the mainstream:
Let The Pouty Donovan McNabb Show Begin! (http://deadspin.com/5677929/let-the-pouty-donovan-mcnabb-show-begin)
QuoteAlmost always liked Donovan McNabb while an Eagle despite realizing, early on, that he was the king of pouty, passive-aggressive, veiled digs at people - disguised as saying "the right thing" - when he didn't get his way.
Mike Shanahan's about to learn this.
I can't wait.

Eskin's "sources" say Donovan forgets the terminology when things speed up at the end of games, which is why Shanahan used Grossman in the last few minutes
I call BS.
Even if he did, then you resort to a wristband system.
hahaha
J you need to stop. please.
Man that has nothing to do with me being a McNabb fan.
If you have a player, especially your QB, who forgets the terminology then you put the wristband on him so he knows whats up.
That is common sense and no defending. Eskin is full of shtein
BTW...
Steve Czaban is calling Shanahan "Mike Zornihan" because of all the dumb things going on down there. They had Dockery a healthy inactive today even with their OL struggles.
yea like a wristband is going to stop him from being absolutely lost and disinterested during the end of games
he wants no part of game winning drives and has never wanted anything to do with it. how many times does he have to check out of 4th qtrs before you just come to grips with the fact that he doesnt have it and doesnt even want it.
That is not the point.
I call BS on the Eskin report that he struggles, because we know he has had issues, because of the forgetting the farging terminology.
Quote from: PhillyPhreak54 on November 01, 2010, 01:31:27 AMI call BS on the Eskin report
do you really even need to say this
McNabb is a farging loser. Always has been always will be.
Wait-so Mcnabb has had what 5 and plus months to learn the terminology and run the 2 min drill every day in practice since and he just so happens to still get lost at the most important time in a game? Wow.
Cmon Phreak...put two and two together here. I'm not one to start a Mcnabb bashing, but this guy has regressed so bad that the coaches are now making excuses for him.
'Everyone makes mistakes in their lives. They made one last year'. - Donovan Mcnabb
has nothing to do with the terminology....it has to do with the fact that hes been horrible now for eight games and shanny knows they had no chance to win the game in that spot with him as qb
he simply put in the player he felt gave them the best chance to win at that particular time
people in the media as usual are over analyzing this
however if people need a specific reason as to why he was sat down then you can look at the hideous interception he threw with four minutes left to give the game away...that was straw that broke the camels back....hip hip cliche!!
Screamin' A is ranting about Donovan McNabb being pulled. Funny.

disagree....they both are hideous....but if youve watched mcnabb this year and that game yesterday in particular you knew there was literally no chance of mcnabb driving the field there....as i previously mentioned in this thread the chance of grossman doing it was probably 3% but thats still three pts higher than mcnabb
does anyone remember the last time donovan mcnabb ledd his team on a drive to take the lead with under 5 minutes left in the game? when they were down in the game at the time? you know like oh were losing now we need 3 or 7 get it done donny boy...whens the last spot he did that.
my gut tells me that pittsburgh game in 2000 was the first and only time.
He has had a couple but I can't remember the last time.
And I did watch that game....I guess it is more like pick your poison. Suh is an absolute beast btw.
That INT he threw with just over 4 minutes left in the game set the stage. He just doesnt show up when you need him to, enough that Shanny thought Rex Grossman was a better option..HAHAHAHA Where's your momma now Durnavan

can't call his own plays, can adjust at the line, and when he gets the ball at the end with the game on the line, you know he's going to fail.

I'm so out of the loop with player names. Who the hell is Hns?
I wish I had more time today to truly enjoy ES, the Mcnabb threads are great.
are they destroying him?
90% are saying Shannahan's an idiot and that the problem is the O-line. Then you find sound rational people like this guy:
QuoteMcNabb has the 25th worst QB rating in the league. He's got 7 TD's and 8 INT's. He's scored 3 TD's in the second half of games and thrown 7 INT's in those same quarters. He's led us to 4 wins and 3 losses. In those 4 wins:
Dallas week 1 - Defense scored the only TD
Eagles week 4 - Defense knocked out Vick and held on to the win
Green Bay week 5 - Defense knocked players out the game and held onto win
Chicago week 6 - Defense with 4 INT's won that game
In fact in our four wins he's produced the following:
66 completions
132 attempts
3 TD
4 INTs
For what reason are you wanting him to stay here long term? Could it be that he's getting too much credit for these wins? In none of those wins did he throw more then 1 TD in a game and he threw multiple picks in one game and had a pick in 3 out of 4 games. Is this the best we can do? I expect more.
I no longer care what we gave up for him. If you said to me by the bye week we would trade a 2nd and a 3rd round pick for a QB with those numbers I would have said no thank you to the trade. He's not living up to the billing but then again I have to believe the Eagles knew he was in decline when they traded him to us. People wonder why they did that and to me this is the reason. A 34 year old QB with diminishing skills isn't worth a long term deal. If he plays this way after the bye I'm not sure I want him either next year. He is a name but I am tired of names. I want production. If he produces then he can stay. That is the beauty of this situation now. If he wants to leave next year then he will need to produce the rest of the season. If he does that we could tag him if we wanted. If he continues this type of production I want a new QB and I can't see the market being to high for his services. It's up to McNabb to produce now. I hope he answers the bell and doesn't quit but if he's actually that immature to quit then so be it. You win some and lose some

what were the 2? he had the bucs comeback but the thought to be gw score was a screen pass that westbrook did everything on. mcnabb was puking in that game. does that count even though they didnt win?
they lost the bucs game on a 76 yard fg
unless you are thinking of the taterskins game where westbrook had the amazing run off the screen
that might be 1 but i think that td came before 2 minutes to go.
one might be the denver game last year where he got a first down and akers kicked like a 45 yd fg to beat a team that had lost 30 games in a row
the game against the Skins at the Linc last year right after Thanksgiving....another one Akers won
the tampa game was a two minute type comeback but i thought you were referring to the 2-12 record that was posted.....all im saying is he didnt win the game so it couldnt have been one of the two

denver game they started the drive from the broncos 42. 1:41 on clock. again, really short field.
so those are his 2 comebacks. 2 field goals. 2 bad teams. 2 situations where you can hardly say he even had to try and run a 2 minute offense.
he sucks.
i can only speak for myself but i would have traded that denver comeback for one against the cardinals in the nfcc game

In the Denver comeback he admitted that game saving pass to Maclin on the sidelines was a fluke...he was trying to throw it away and it worked out.
Shannahan's backtracking now and saying McNabb had a hamstring injury
lol
Are there hamstrings in the brain?
He also said he had "cardiovascular issues" and some contusions (i.e, bruises). Does this sound familiar?
hysterical.
and please never mention that tampa game again.
Ronde Barber has the most consecutive starts of any cornerback ever
Eagles at least picked a fun week to have their bye.
Cardiovascular issues? :-D
yup, said he was out of shape
i think he meant he has no heart
Wow, I just saw the clip of Shanahan's PC and he was lying out of his ass.
Rambling response with like 7 excuses in there.
Shanahan should have floated 'gastrointestinal problems' if he wanted to sound credible.
considering how full of shtein he is that would have been entirely appropriate.
wilbon of course ripped shanahan for the move, but its interesting to see how the media has handled this one compared to the baltimore benching
in balt it was oh my god how do you bench donovan hes so good nfc title this pro bowl that
now its ehhh why hed do it with 2 mins left and for rex grossman? basically everyone saying if they had a competent backup and it was done at the half or midweek theyd understand.
i.e. everyone, maybe even a blind mcnabb homer like wilbon, can see how washed up this guy is.
still waiting for J to come around, though.
mcnabb is the love of his life.
you leave him alone, you.
lol
I am enjoying it because it shows the taterskins, despite another coaching change, are still in disarray and their fans have to take it up the chute again.
AND????
And I enjoy seeing them in turmoil?
and....
just say hes washed up and you were wrong for saying the eagles should have kept him
then we can all get on with our lives
DO IT J!!!
Washed up? Yeah, maybe. He would undoubtedly have better stats this year if he were still in Philly. He wasn't going to win the big one there, that's for sure.
He's past his prime and on the downward trend, and is in a new offense with a new coach for the first time in 11 years, and the team around him is crap. Combine that with his diminished skills and of course they look like shtein. And we will all enjoy watching it.
QuoteEveryone,
Let's all take a deep breath and remember the rules on starting thread.
1. Use accurate, descriptive titles. This is not an option. Going forward, if you start a thread with a title such as "one thing I think..." or "Defense" or "Shanahan", it is going to be a vacation.
2. Do not troll, do not spam. This would include only starting threads after a loss, and dissapearing other times. This would also include starting multiple whining and bitching threads about the same subjects, attacking them from different angles. Trust us, your thoughts really are not that special. Put them in an existing thread.
3. Format articles correctly. Again, not an option. "Source: Title". Learn it. If this is too hard for you, don't start a thread.
4. Be sure your thread is not already posted. This is a biggie. No need to say more.
It really sucks to ban taterskin fans or place them in the No New Threads group during the season. Please, take a moment and read the rules... make this board a better place for all of us and make it so we don't have to ban anyone. That would be much better. Thanks.
QuoteMcNabb, with a hammy, with contusion to the thigh PRIOR to the game - not counting the many he got IN THE GAME with all the sacks and being pulled down during his sprint - was playing hurt. He shouldn't have played the game. He should have sat this one out. A good one to set out. He didn't - praise him for that; but Shanny DIDN'T want anymore injury to McNabb (Shanny really respects this quarterback) so he pulled him and put in "what he thought would be the best chance DUE TO the quickness needed and the demand of the cardiovascular of a 2 minute drill in 1:45" Grossman- although neither quarterback had practiced the 2 minute drill without timeouts in 5 weeks.
I don't blame Mike S. nor do I blame McNabb or Grossman. But there is a Shanny I do question - he will have to prove to me that he has control of the Offense.
lol
QuoteMike Shanahan not happy with how Donovan McNabb practices
Posted by Michael David Smith on November 1, 2010 8:05 PM ET
taterskins coach Mike Shanahan can say his decision to bench quarterback Donovan McNabb at the end of Sunday's loss to the Lions was about Rex Grossman having a better handle on the two-minute offense, or about McNabb having problems with his cardiovascular conditioning.
But whatever Shanahan says publicly, there are growing indications that privately, he just doesn't think much of McNabb.
The latest indication comes from ESPN's Chris Mortensen, who reported Monday night that both Shanahan and his son and offensive coordinator, Kyle Shanahan, have been unhappy with the way McNabb practices. According to Mortensen, McNabb doesn't practice at the tempo that the taterskins' coaching staff wants to see from him.
And Mortensen says Shanahan even considered benching McNabb after the taterskins' win over the Eagles, a game in which the taterskins beat McNabb's former team despite McNabb going just 8-for-19 for 125 yards.
Mortensen calls Shanahan's displeasure with McNabb "The worst-kept secret in the league." After Sunday's benching, it's not a secret at all.
is that code for you were wrong and i was right?
There are ten different excuses, but they don't necessarily contradict one another.
It is possible that McNabb is a lazy, hurt, out of shape QB who is too dumb to learn the plays, too choke-prone to conduct the two minute drill better than Rex Grossman, who Shanahan doesn't like personally and who is on the way out in Washington. And also he sucks.
The big thing here is that McNabb no more has Reid to [igy]coddle[/igy] him. Shananhan is not the kind of coach who wants to be a players friend, and has no problem calling guys out no matter who they are. I'm sure that McNabbs easy going attitude, his joking, smiling and grinning like an idiot during practices doesn't go over well with Shanahan or his son.
Screamin' A now, shockingly, playing the race card. Saying Shanny assumes Grossman is smarter because he's white.

JaMarcus Russell Meeting with taterskins
Updated: Tuesday, 02 Nov 2010, 10:12 AM CDT
Published : Tuesday, 02 Nov 2010, 9:24 AM CDT
MARK BERMAN
Sports Director
HOUSTON - NFL sources told FOX 26 Sports former Oakland Raiders quarterback JaMarcus Russell will work out Tuesday for the Washington taterskins.
Russell, the number one overall draft pick in 2007, was released by the Raiders in May. In three years as a starting quarterback in Oakland, Russell had 7-18 record.
For three months, Russell has been working with former NBA head coach John Lucas in Houston in an effort to get a second chance in the NFL.
Lucas, who had his own share of off-the-court-issues as a player, is nationally known for working with troubled athletes.
Last week, Russell had a blip on his radar erased when a Mobile County (Ala.) grand jury declined to indict him on charges of possession of a controlled substance.
The grand jury cited insufficient evidence concerning Russell's July 5 arrest for possession of codeine syrup without a valid prescription. A friend had testified in court that a drink laced wth codeine was his and not Russell's.
On Oct. 20, Russell told FOX 26 Sports he was convinced he would get another shot at playing quarterback in the NFL.
"I know for a fact," said Russell then. "I have faith in God and strong beliefs. I know for a fact. It's going to happen.
"I can't say when, but until it happens I am going to stay here in Houston and continue to work out each and every day no matter how long it takes."
Asked if he has any doubts he can help an NFL team, Russell said, "None. None whatsoever. I need to be there."
Pointing. Sipping on sizzurp. Laughing.
maybe some purple drank will give donnie that energy he needs at the end of the game.
wilma probably didnt let him touch a drink until he was married, something tell me little donnie isnt interested
This is priceless.
loving this !
Oh this is great!
And we thought the Eagles were going to be the joke of the division all year
jamarcus russell??
ahahaha.... perfect.
"Calling all EMT and patrol vehicles in the area...we have an attempted suicide situation at the washington taterskins practice facility. I repeat an attempted suicide..."
shanahan is pooping on the bedwetters face...except this is like when you poop.....and you think youre done....but then another log comes out.....
McNabb isn't fit enough so they bring the king of QB fitness Jemarcus Russell in for a tryout. Greatest bye week in Eagles history.
Quote from: charlie on November 02, 2010, 09:18:58 AM
Tim Hasselbeck was on Mike and Mike this morning talking about how the Eagles were never happy with his practicing either, that is was 11 years of asking him to pick up the tempo.
So McNabb doesn't know how to pick up the tempo in practice and coincidentally, the Eagles have been terrible in the 2min offense for a decade and Shanny would rather send Wrecks Grossman out there with the game on the line.
Like most, I've thrown most of the blame towards Reid for the Eagles lackadaisical approach towards the hurry up offense but now I'm starting to second guess that and wonder if the problem wasn't more on McNabb than it was Reid. I'm not exhonerating Reid from all the blame or from any of his other coaching faults, but it's starting to look more like McNabb was the main culprit with this particular issue.
And once all the dust settled with the TO debacle, it really became apparent that McNabb was being just as much of a diva as TO, maybe even more. And now you've got reports about Shanny & Co not being happy with McNabb's practice habits and new reports surfacing saying that Reid felt the same way.
As time goes on, I won't be surprised if any future complaints that the taterskins have with McNabb aren't later validated by people within the Eagles organization. We know that Reid is very protective of his players, and was especially protective of McNabb and the fact that he was able to keep some of this stuff under wraps for 10 years is pretty impressive in today's world of rumors and gossip. I think this ball of yarn might just be starting to unravel.
I thought it was dumb to trade McNabb to a division rival. Now, it's actually starting to look like a stroke of genius.
we need to put J on suicide watch
this is what its come to for the "greatest qb in eagles history"
McNabb has the 3rd worst QB rating in the final 2 minutes of the half and the game.
The 2nd worst belongs to Kolbsy. The Eagles are toats regretting the trade!
(Delhomme is the worst.)

lol inmyhead
I remember when the Eagles first traded McNabb Baldy said they weren't scared to trade him within the division because they had been hiding his flaws for so many years. Looks like there is some truth to that.
they couldnt hide 2 key flaws: his awful personality and his disinterest in games when there's 2 minutes to go
ive said for years his two biggest faults were having no intestinal fortitude and having a desire to win but not a desire to not lose
these are two things that have always explained why he is horrible at the most critical times...no urgency because he doesnt care if they lose and no ability to stand tall at the toughest most critical times because he has no inner strength
i have to completely laugh how there are all these shocking reports now coming out about mcnabb...where has everyone been for the last decade?

this is what its come to for the "greatest qb in eagles history"
Regardless of how badly McNabb's career trainwrecks to an end, he still is the greatest qb in eagles history
Quote from: FastFreddie on November 02, 2010, 02:26:13 PM
McNabb has the 3rd worst QB rating in the final 2 minutes of the half and the game.
The 2nd worst belongs to Kolbsy. The Eagles are toats regretting the trade!
(Delhomme is the worst.)
Aaron Rodgers was 4th on the list
Are some of you really implying that Reid is also not to blame for the 4th quarter ineptitude?
I think these stories just make me realize that they may be the worst qb/coach combo in history for clock management and two minute drills. These stories do nothing in vindicating Reid especially since he covered it up.
yeah reid has some splainin to do as to why he rode the bedwetters back for more than a decade....but thats been the case since feb 2005

Mcnabb was a great quarterback... just not a clutch, super bowl winning, one.
he was never a great qb...well i guess depending on your definition of great
he did have one great year
Lets see how many media types that questioned this move and say the fans ran him out of town come out now and say they were wrong. I'll set the over under at -/+ 0
IMO. there is a very short list of great QB's who never won a super bowl. Marino and maybe Jim Kelly. Now that I've been able to look back over McNabb's career, he was a very good QB who made some spectular plays over the last 11 years. But he's not great.
i dont even need their mea culpas...i just want someone somewhere to put together one huge file of all their articles and soundbites

almost all of them are now questioning Shannahan. it's unreal. Andy was idiot for getting rid of him, but now with a real coach who understands how to use a quarterback, Donovan will be great. but now it's, "what an idiot Shanahan is for benching Donovan. poor donovan!"
before the season a proven coach was going to make the taterskins legit. now the guy is wade phillips minus the arm elbow deep up his ass.
i think if the benching doesnt take place when it did the pendulum switches quite a bit in the other direction
i agree with what shanahan did but he opened up the flood gates of (valid) criticism by doing it with two minutes left in the game
Quote from: ice grillin you on November 02, 2010, 04:06:34 PM

yep, no debating shanny went about this the wrong way. the guy definitely has reason to bench donny but the time of game absolutely opened him up for criticism plus, c'mon, rex grossman ?
i actually agree with what he did AND when he did it....but in terms of the public at large and the media doing it at that time leaves you open to massive and justified criticism and without a doubt takes almost all the heat off of mcnabb
benching any quarterback with two minutes to go is a bullshtein move of clownish proportions.i hate mcnabb as much as anyone but that does nothing but breed discord in the locker room.
considering how badly shanahan farged up the haynesworth situation, it's pretty clear he doesn't have a clue how to babysit mental midgets like mcnabb, and like it or not, that's a huge part of the job in 2010.
whatever, though... i can't wait to see just how bad this is going to get.
Clearly, the media is desirous to... Oh, never mind.
Painful...
Otherwise, McNabb did his best to bite his tongue and keep his sense of humor about the whole affair. When he limped into the locker room -- yes, those 33-year-old hamstrings are noticeably bothering him -- he jokingly interrupted an interview with rookie receiver Anthony Armstrong by asking: "How's your cardiovascular endurance?"
god he is inching closer to munsonion levels of unfunniness

Totally forgot about Fouts. Moon had crossed my mind, but the reason I left him off the list is because he didn't have an exceptional playoff career/record. I think he only won like 3 playoff games in his career. Not to mention that he was on the wrong end of the most epic choke job in NFL playoff history.
However, in terms of regular season production and his ability to lead a team back from behind in the 4th quarter, he was definitely superior to McNabb.

No idea, the only guy (that I can remember) that thought the trade was great for the Eagles and that Mcnabb had been holding the team back was Baldinger. I think Schlereth liked the move too.
Wilbon said on PTI this pretty much seals the deal that McNabb won't be a Skin next year.
Oh no doubt...he'll be a Cardinal. That's my bet.

I was thinking Minnesota but I don't think Childress will be there
So if he doesn't resign does that affect the pick the Eagles get?
nah
9+ wins
playoffs
or McNabb goes to the Pro Bowl as a 5th alternate

TO weighs in. Thank God.
other than banner inc does anyone come out of this smelling better than TO?
McNabb is getting protected by the media so strongly that I might argue he smells even better.
id have agreed on monday but since all these practice habit rumors have come out and the news that the eagles were never really happen with him has put him in a pretty bad light...not as bad as shanny but he isnt looking all that great

Quote
For his part, McNabb said he could have finished the game and conceded that he was insulted to have to answer questions like this from the media after 12 years in the league.
"Absolutely, but it's part of our jobs." he said. "I know that and that's why I'm standing here right now, to give you guys a little bit because I know you guys are probably wondering how I felt. I'm just going to make myself available when I need to. That's my job. But again, I need to just focus on what we need to do here as a unit. There are a lot of things we need to clean up. With this bye week, I expect good things when we get back."

Simmons:
QuoteShanahan's big mistake was playing the conditioning/injuries card instead of just admitting what everyone else couldn't help but notice if you watched the taterskins this year: Other than the Houston game in Week 2, McNabb seemed fairly washed-up, only he still LOOKS like McNabb -- same body, same facial expressions, same throwing motion -- so it's throwing people off. He makes seven or eight dreadful throws/decisions per game. Why wasn't Shanahan just honest about it? Perplexing. At the very least, we re-learned the same lesson that we learned after Buffalo traded for Drew Bledsoe: If a division rival calls and says, "Hey, we'll trade you our quarterback for a draft pick, any interest?" you should react like Obama would react if the Republicans said, "Hey, we have a Tea Party congressman who'd be great for your cabinet, any interest?"
QuoteTalk continues that McNabb can't figure out Shanahan's offense
Posted by Michael David Smith on November 7, 2010 11:05 AM ET
The Washington taterskins are off this week, but there's no reprieve from the constant discussion about why Mike Shanahan benched Donovan McNabb late in last week's loss to the Lions.
The latest talk comes from a report on ESPN on Sunday morning in which Chris Mortensen said that Shanahan and his son and offensive coordinator, Kyle Shanahan, have had to cut their playbook in half in order to pare it down enough for McNabb to learn it.
And it gets worse: Mortensen reports that even when McNabb is operating with the Cliff's Notes version of the playbook, he sometimes has trouble correctly calling the plays in the huddle.
At this point, with all these stories coming out about McNabb being unable to figure out the offense, it's hard not to get the feeling that there are folks within the taterskins organization who are making a concerted effort to make McNabb look bad. That's exactly what ESPN's Tom Jackson, who played in Denver for three seasons when Shanahan was a Broncos assistant, said after Mortensen's report.
"If you have a problem with your quarterback," Jackson said, "you call [him] in and you discuss that. This has now become so public that the quarterback is going to be completely embarrassed and it makes his job harder."
In Jackson's view, Shanahan and McNabb simply won't be able to work together going forward -- and Jackson thinks that's more Shanahan's fault than McNabb's.
"I always thought the job of a coach is to adjust your system to the guy who's quarterbacking your team," Jackson said. "This situation is irreconcilable."
Reid just looks better and better for all of this.

QuoteWhen games get tough and a leader is required, some quarterbacks head to the nearest phone booth and change into a costume with an "S" on the chest. McNabb usually emerges wearing an "out of order" sign.
Quote from: Diomedes on November 07, 2010, 11:21:10 AM
Reid just looks better and better for all of this.
He really does. I don't know if Reid saw this as a potential outcome or if he just got lucky. Regardless, trading him within the division turned out to be a great move.

That's like when the Phillies have a guy with an open jersey and it reads "Philllies." Big whoop.
This is some funny stuff from the wannabe Mr. Suzy Kolber:
Quote"I don't think he's the type quarterback at this stage that Shanahan wants to move forward with. Shanahan wants someone that is a little more accurate passer as well as not carrying as many injuries from over the years, the extra baggage. You get beaten up over a period of time and McNabb today certainly doesn't move around as well as he used to and his accuracy hasn't improved as a passer.''

I think that they're realizing he needs his ego coddled in order to play effectively, and this is just a ploy. I mean... there is no way that they'd re-sign him based on his performance thus far this year, is there? Even J couldn't buy into that decision.
you misunderestimate them both
I misdisagree.

The source said $40 million of the deal will be guaranteed.
This may motivate McNabb for tonight, but this is GREAT news for the Eagles in general.
I love it.

hahaha 2 times he gets benched, 2 times he gets paid after it
how many times are people going to spoil and coddle this guy? its insane. not much mention giving an old washed up tubby little puker 40 mil guaranteed and 5 years. holy hell. too good to be true.
the taterskins had to do it...they gave up two draft picks for him and have absolutely nothing in the hopper....i mean what else were they gonna do tradev for peyton manning in the offseason??
the money is outrageous but its just money...as for the signing itself there was really no other choice for them
can the skins place all of the guaranteed money against this year's cap ?
Adam_Schefter Adam Schefter
Parameters of Donovan McNabb's deal were agreed to in OCTOBER. He took same deal on table since then. No negotiations today. None
Why the farg did he wait so long? He couldn't honestly believe he'd get a better deal
He should have signed it the day after he got benched for Sexy Rexy, not giving the Skins the chance to rescind
By the way if there is a NFL next year, there will be some sort of cap. It shouldn't be too restrictive, but the money isn't as much an issue as the skins' commitment to McNabb. This means they won't get someone better for 2011, which is great news... especially since many pundits were chattering about Vick heading to Washington.
Forget next year and the cap, I think it's pretty cool you don't have to earn new contracts anymore.
There are at least two NFL owners who are happy to overpay for past performance. Yay NFC East.

A yearly ritual: taterskins embarrass themselves in primetime
WASHINGTON -- The Washington taterskins sure know how to embarrass themselves in primetime.
Take the Monday night game two years ago, when many thousands of Pittsburgh Steelers fans waving Terrible Towels ruled the roost in the lower bowl of FedEx Field to root their team to a 23-6 victory. taterskins owner Dan Snyder was so humiliated that he ordered 50,000 "taterskins Rally Rags" to be distributed at the next home game in an effort to restore the home-field advantage.
Or last year, when soon-to-be-fired coach Jim Zorn tried one of the silliest Monday night plays ever, the high school fake-field goal play known as the "swinging gate" or "picket fence" or "wash bucket." It had a new name -- "failure" -- after the New York Giants intercepted the trick pass on the way to a 45-12 rout.
The taterskins might have topped them all this week. Their return to the Monday night spotlight turned in a 59-28 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, a game that was 35-0 early in the second quarter and sent booing fans home by halftime. It spoiled the news, announced a few hours before kickoff, that Donovan McNabb had signed a contract extension, and an ugly pregame skirmish only served to fire up the Eagles even more.
The taterskins shut their doors to the media Tuesday -- coach Mike Shanahan didn't even hold the customary day-after news conference -- but players found ways to vent their dismay on Twitter and on their weekly radio appearances.
"Last night was horrendous," tweeted receiver Anthony Armstrong.
"I'm repulsed by the way we played," tight end Chris Cooley said on 106.7 The Fan.
And on and on.
Shanahan said after the game that his team was "outplayed and outcoached in every area." He blamed himself for not having his players better prepared.
Players pointed out that the loss doesn't totally derail their playoff hopes. The taterskins (4-5) are two games behind the Eagles and the New York Giants in the NFC East, and they have two games against the Giants. What was left unsaid was whether the team has used up the supply of good fortune that helped it win four close games in September and October despite glaring deficiencies on both sides of the ball.
The defense is again last in the NFL in yards allowed at 415.3 per game. The bend-but-don't-break philosophy is starting to falter, with the taterskins 26th in points allowed at 25.4 per game. The struggles continue for an offensive line that has allowed 25 sacks and for a thin receiving corps, with wideouts accounting for only seven catches Monday night. Washington has converted 22 percent of third downs this season, by far the worst percentage in the NFL.
McNabb tied a career-high with three interceptions, and even his five-year, $78 million contract turns out not to be as ironclad as initially thought. His agent, Fletcher Smith, confirmed Tuesday that the taterskins could cut McNabb at the end of the season after having paid only $3.5 million of the new deal with no obligation to pay anything more.
As ugly as the score was, the words exchanged over the behavior of taterskins safety LaRon Landry were even uglier. The Eagles accused the player known as "Dirty 30" for stoking the pregame confrontation by making inappropriate trash-talk at Philadelphia receiver DeSean Jackson, who recently returned from a concussion.
"Everyone talks trash, but there are just certain things you say and don't say," Eagles receiver Jeremy Maclin said. "Life-changing incidents are things you just don't talk about, and he was just running his mouth a little bit too much."
Philadelphia center Mike McGlynn also said he was spit at by Landry twice during the game on extra points.
"He's a dirty player. We know that," Eagles receiver Jason Avant said.
Landry denied the spitting allegation and said his pregame talk with Jackson was nothing more than routine banter. He also defended himself on Twitter.
"To everyone who's truly taterskin fan/fan of mine... Knows I never been a dirty player/never will!" Landry tweeted. "Supposedly I spit on the center if there's any truth to that I would have been flagged or the guy would have some sort of reaction! I just play hard and do anything to help the team win... As for as D. Jack that's my guy been home boys for awhile so to y'all who wanna read blogs/the Internet find out the truth to stories/not a writer trying to stir confusion!"
With this new set of distractions in place, the taterskins must now regroup quickly for Sunday's game at Tennessee.
"Can we continue to build? Can we get better? What is our real character? What's the character?" Cooley said. "If we have guys that care, we'll go to work tomorrow. You have to put it past you."
Pointing. Laughing.
There is literally nothing better than this.
Alright, a SB win, but other than that absolutely nothing beats the week following an embarrassing of the taterskins. So good.
If I'm remembering the McNabb deal - a 3rd or 4th rounder as compensation depending on how 5 and the team does - there's an odd quirk.
If washington won the SB or if they went 0-16, the compensation would be pretty much the same, last pick of 3rd or top of 4th.
Now it's looking like a top 10 pick of the 4th. Maybe Howie can turn it into two 5th round LB prospects for the first LBs of their draft.
Quote
The rival taterskins agreed to trade their 2nd-round pick in this year's Draft to the Eagles for veteran quarterback Donovan McNabb back in April. The deal also included a conditional 2011 Draft selection for the Birds, either a 3rd- or 4th-rounder depending on a variety of factors dealing with Washington's success this season. But with the 'Skins recently announcing a trade with the Saints for offensive tackle Jammal Brown and promising either a 3rd- or 4th-round pick in 2011 in return, the future compensation for the Eagles has been altered; though the changes are very slight, they should definitely be noted, as New Orleans is now infused into the Draft pick cluster because of their moves.
The deciding factors for determining whether the Eagles get a 3rd or 4th are still in play: if the taterskins win at least nine games, go to the playoffs, or McNabb (pictured) is voted into the Pro-Bowl in 2010, Philly will receive a 3rd; the Saints would then be given Washington's 4th-round selection. If that isn't the case, the Draft picks will simply be switched (New Orleans will receive the 3rd and Philadelphia will be given the 4th-rounder). There are also now a few other picks on the line because of the Saints' involvement, though the Eagles cannot benefit nor suffer because of what happens with it; if it is indeed New Orleans that winds up with the 3rd, then they will be required to ship a 5th-round pick back to D.C., whereas if the Saints receive the 4th, they must deal a 6th- or 7th-rounder to the taterskins. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, there is also a conditional 2012 pick involved, which would be based off of Jammal Brown's 2010 performance in burgundy and gold.

wonder when the taterskins will learn that you build a team through the draft - not by trading picks for washed up homos like brown and mcnabb...hopefully never.
That won't happen as long as Dan Snyder is calling the shots.
I thought that Snyder was going to take a back seat and let Bruce Allen and Shanahan make the personnel decisions. So, I guess they're idiots too.
That said they didn't go after any other expensive veterans this off-season, and they can still cut ties with McNabb after 2010. It could even be argued that they should have tried harder to get someone like Vincent Jackson or Anquan Boldin, because their offensive skill players are simply atrocious.

QuoteWhy did Washington taterskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth appear to lie down and stop trying during a live play in his team's 59-28 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night? Page 2 presents the Top 10 reasons:
1. Thought shuttle cone conditioning test was already over
2. Upset that his "Madden NFL 11" loafing rating isn't a 99
3. Enjoys long walks on the beach, candle lit dinners and the feeling of wet grass between his fingertips
4. Believed he had made tackle, then realized the mass under him was just his stomach
5. Still in shock that Princess Di's ring fit Kate Middleton's finger perfectly
6. Still in shock that Donovan McNabb was actually benched for Rex Grossman
7. Just following orders to worry less about individual statistics, such as sacks
8. Wasn't going to catch Michael Vick anyway
9. Auditioning for Life Call endorsement
10. Gravity

Quote"taterskins owner Daniel Snyder thought his team could beat the Eagles on Monday night. When the end result was a 59-28 thrashing by their NFC East rivals, Snyder slipped into a funk.
"The next day, I'm in the tank," Snyder said at a Wednesday evening appearance at the University of Maryland, per Rick Maese of the Washington Post. "Talked to Mike [Shanahan] last night — I was still in pajamas, so . . . ."Snyder had more to say about the 31-point defeat, Philly's biggest victory margin over the taterskins since 1950, when the Eagles swept D.C. 35-3 and 33-0.
"No. 1, it's embarrassing. And I felt terrible for all our fans," Snyder said. "Monday night, we were jacked up and tailgating was spectacular, team got in a fight before the game back and forth. I'm like, 'Okay, we're going to take them.' And then that guy [Michael Vick] ran all over the place, threw the ball perfectly and got on us before we knew what hit us. And occasionally that's going to happen."
Right, but the occasions are fewer and farther between for the league's best teams. And despite Snyder's resources and the team's revenues, he simply can't put the taterskins among the finest franchises in all of football.
Consider this — in 11 years under Snyder, the taterskins have qualified for the playoffs only three times. They've secured only one division title, way back in 1999.
But, hey, at least they've got Donovan McNabb under contract for the next five years."
No doubt he is a huge skins fan. It just proves that if you get really rich, buying your favorite sports team is not necessarily a good idea. Heck, look at Lurie... Boston guy through and through. He probably would have torched the Pats if he outbid Kraft.
"I read that DC-area McDonald's restaurants are putting "The McNabb" burger on the menu. You order it and the cashier throws it at your feet."

Report: taterskins may cut Haynesworth this week
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on December 6, 2010, 10:22 AM EST
The latest chapter in the Albert Haynesworth saga should be getting more attention, but the taterskins aren't in the playoff race and we've already grown accustomed to Haynesworth as a rarely-useful backup. Another benching barely phases anyone, even when there are a few inflammatory comments thrown in.
Well, the taterskins are considering a way to get everyone's attention.
Chris Russell of ESPN 980 in Washington (Dan Snyder's station) reports that the team is giving "serious consideration" to releasing Haynesworth this week. Russell's team source says the move is "75% likely."
Haynesworth was inactive Sunday against the Giants after showing up late to a meeting during the week and missing a practice due to illness.
A release would be an appropriate ending to the Haynesworth-Mike Shanahan marriage. It would essentially be an admittance that the team badly mismanaged the situation all year. They held on to Haynesworth too long, paid him too much, and won't get a draft pick in return. (Or consistent help from Haynesworth on the field.)
Cutting Haynesworth would simply be giving up, like the taterskins did on the field Sunday.
Would be nice if the Birds could sign him for their run to the playoffs. Give him an incentive laden deal and give him the motivation of humiliating the team that humiliated him twice a season and you could have something. Also would result in Trevor Laws getting a kick towards the door. Never will happen though.....
Trevor Laws has great hands.
trevor laws has been good this year
donnie had an amazingly bad play yesterday. probably many but the one i saw he couldn't make up his mind whether to run or not, then started running and kinda did a tumble/dive right at the line of scrimmage. so funny.
Haynesworth is a bum.
Laws has been good, why drop him and sign a tub of goo who lays on the field and takes a nap while the game is going on?
Bunkley is playing at maybe 70% and is the worst DT on the team this year.
QuoteASHBURN, Va. -- Phillip Daniels has some stern words for Albert Haynesworth.
The veteran defensive lineman choked up Monday morning when talking about the latest Haynesworth distraction in the Washington taterskins' disappointing season.
Haynesworth was inactive for Sunday's loss to the New York Giants after an illness limited him at practice Friday.
Daniels says he hasn't missed a practice all year at age 37, even though he's been sick lately. He says Haynesworth hasn't fully grasped the concept of team, and that Haynesworth could be the NFL player of the year if fully committed to football.
Daniels says he has been through 15 seasons and hasn't won anything, so "if I can come out here and do this, don't tell me that you can't do it."
its times like this you're glad to see the taterskins have a strong, commanding leader in donovan mcnabb
what has he done for that team?
anything?
I saw him laughing yesterday late in the game after missing Moss on a bomb
his interceptions are way up
hes been terrible but to be fair hes washed up and the team itself is horrendous
I don't take pleasure in watching him play so poorly but at the same time, it makes me very happy knowing he's not an eagle anymore and I don't have to endure any more suffering at his expense.
...and we don't have to see him grinning like an idiot after throwing a pick.
His face must hurt from all the grinning this year.
the contrast btwn peyton mannings comments in rough times and donovan mcnabbs are striking
"I have to play better," Manning said late Sunday afternoon after his four interceptions led to 20 points in the Colts' 38-35 overtime loss to the Dallas Cowboys in front of 67,471 at Lucas Oil Stadium in downtown Indianapolis.
"I've got to make better decisions, and better reads. There was nothing new or different about the defense that Dallas was playing. The four interceptions, the guys were covered. The balls shouldn't have been thrown."
"Sometimes when guys are covered, you have to be able pull off of it and throw it away or come to another read," Manning said. "That is your job as a quarterback. We are still throwing the ball down the field, but you still have to protect it. The most important thing about every play is that you possess the ball at the end of that play.
"That is rule number one for a quarterback and I am not doing a good enough job of that."
vs.
"We showed our youth in situations where everyone began to look around to see who was going to make the play instead of stepping up and making that play," McNabb said. "And that's something that comes with the territory when you have a young group. And I think at this time, after discussing it with the guys, everybody understands that. All throughout the year we've had guys step up and make big plays for us when their name's called. Today it just didn't happen. And when you lose the way we did today in this fashion, obviously it is a humbling experience and we have to bounce back strong."
come on that may be a little bit too much for j to take
QuoteProFootballTalk The taterskins have announced that Albert Haynesworth has been suspended. Story coming at PFT.
Shanahan's press release:
Quote"Despite the club's numerous attempts to persuade Albert Haynesworth to abide by the terms of his contract, he has repeatedly refused to cooperate with our coaching staff in a variety of ways over an extended period of time. Among other things, he has consistently indicated to our defensive coaches that he refuses to play in our base defense or on first-down or second-down nickel situations. He has also refused to follow the instructions of our coaches both during weekly practices and during actual games as well.
Yesterday, when Albert was at taterskin Park, he told our General Manager Bruce Allen that he would no longer speak with me. Although suspending any player is not a decision that a head coach enters into lightly, I believe the situation has reached the point where the club clearly has no alternative."
Solid signing.
So when do we see him doing sit ups laying down in his driveway?
taterskins split practice reps between McNabb and Rex this week in case 5 struggles; if he does, he will be benched for Grossman
Ronde Barber gonna get him a pick today.
how hard was that to type
Hug me.
Wipe my tears away.
McNabb has 17 yards passing. Ryan Torain is already over 100 rushing. And they haven't scored.
Graham Gano just missed a 24 yarder. I love hating the skins.
he missed like 30 yarder earlier
mcnabb butchering the clock again and then tossin worm burners

Yeah it is. I don't know if it's because he's still not comfortable in the offense or because the oline isn't that good or what. If I had to guess though, I'd say that his head/heart's not in it. I think he got so used to playing in Philly on a team that had minimal turnover on the roster and the same head coach for his entire career that he was comfortable and he's just not adapting to all the change very well.
You think he lacked confidence and had terrible body language in Philly, it seems to be about 1000x worse in DC. Which is kind of awesome.

I think we are seeing that Reid gets more out of QBs than most coaches. Say what you will about all his other deficiencies but when you can get the most out of Feeley, McNabb, and a washed up Garcia thats pretty good.

QuoteThe taterskins are forced to practice at local gyms
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on December 16, 2010, 2:40 PM EST
Mike Shanahan
In late September, we mentioned how taterskins owner Dan Snyder was oddly cheap when it came to practice facilities.
The team was forced to practice at an airport hangar back then, and things have only grown worse since. Dan Steinberg of DC Sports Bog notes that the taterskins were forced to hold a practice on a basketball court with a divider at a "Lifetime Fitness" gym a few weeks ago.
With the team's grass fields frozen this week, they practiced on a turf field Wednesday. But Mike Shanahan doesn't want to do further damage to his veterans by practicing on turf. So they all piled into cars and headed back to a local gym Thursday.
"Today was the only day it was a little disappointing on the practice field, because it was icy," Shanahan said Wednesday. "You could not set your feet. Guys were slipping all over the place. The fields were frozen."
Not surprisingly, Shanahan says an indoor facility is a "priority" for the future, according to Ryan O'Halloran of Comcast Sports Washington.
It makes you wonder why an organization that isn't shy about spending money hasn't made it a priority before.
LMAO
Quote
* The chances of Donovan McNabb playing for the taterskins next season grow slimmer with each passing day. McNabb signed a 5-year contract extension last month. But that means nothing. He got $3.5 million in new money this season, but isn't guaranteed a penny beyond 2010.
Asked this week about whether he's concerned about reports offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan, son of head coach Mike Shanahan, doesn't want him back, McNabb said: "I can't afford to be. If I don't get that from the guy who makes the decisions than I don't focus on it."
Translation:
Hell yeah, I'm concerned. Wouldn't you be?

MDS - need you to drive up to Houston and start the J suicide watch.
I forget what the stipulation was for the second draft-pick involved in the trade... does this have any impact on what round the pick will be in?
Already no chance. He had to make the Pro Bowl or the skins had to make the playoffs. 4th rounder, here "we" come.
Word.
So, in theory, Philly fans could stuff the ballot box for McNabb to make the Pro-Bowl and the Eagles would get a higher pick?
I don't know what's stupider, the fact that the taterskins would offer something that Eagles fans could screw them on, or the fact that taterskins-hating Eagles fans haven't actually tried to make it happen.
Trainrex Grossman is a winner.
i think i actually feel bad for donny at this point
why? he'll be vick's backup next year in philly and kolb will be the taterskins starter.

Don't look at me, I voted for Favre and McNabb.
apparently Grossman is the starter for the remainder of the year and Beck is the backup...lol wow
holy shtein
Maybe McNabb can go to Cincy and play with the two best receivers over 30.
from NBC Sports:
QuoteThe same organization said that the McNabb benching against the Lions wasn't a big deal. They trumpeted McNabb's contract extension as proof. It's a big deal because it indicates the taterskins have no idea what their plan is or how to deal with players.
This isn't about whether going to Grossman is the right decision. It's a window into larger dysfunction.
Oh how I love this shtein!
so its true that they can cut him loose after this season?
Indeed. They can and they will. The contract extension he signed was basically a $3.5 million "sorry for benching you."
DH i know you love the dude for what he did here, and I do too. but how can you say he "deserves better"? he picked the spot, he's the one that crowed after the defense and an awful eagles offense won the game for him the first time. how does he deserve better?
I am really glad that I am not a Skins fan!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
maybe he doesnt "deserve better", but i think he deserved the chance to get to play out this season. to be benched in favor rex grossman is like the lowest of the low.

Let's revisit some old articles from when Mcnabb was traded:
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/...donovan-mcnabb/
QuotePosted by Mike Florio on September 15, 2010, 9:36 AM EST
taterskins tight end Chris Cooley is thrilled to have Donovan McNabb as his quarterback. And Cooley would like the Eagles to know he thinks they're idiots for trading McNabb to a division rival.
"This is one of the top 10 biggest bonehead trades in the history of the NFL," Cooley said on ESPN's Homecoming with Rick Reilly, per the Philadelphia Daily News.
The show was taped before Cooley and McNabb had played together, but if anything the trade looks like more of a bonehead move for the Eagles after Week One, with Washington 1-0 and Philadelphia 0-1 and already dealing with a quarterback controversy.
McNabb said on the show that he wouldn't have been satisfied if the Eagles had asked him to stick around as the No. 2 quarterback and made Kolb the starter.
"No," McNabb said. "I'm not a backup."
That "bonehead" trade ensures that McNabb is not a backup. But Kolb might become a backup soon.
washington is going nowhere and benching donovan is really a petty and vindictive move on shanahan's part. just let the doode finish out the season and then cut him quietly and gracefully. he might be a colossal waste of dna but 11 years in the league has earned him the right to play out the string.
lol no he hasnt and that doesnt matter
they are finished this season and winding up 8-8 means dick. mcnabb isnt coming back and shanahan either doesnt care or is begging danny boy to fire him. he knows hes not wasting anymore time with that fat farg and his son convinced him rex is worth a shot.
frankly its a decent move. not that rex grossman is good or anything but why not roll the dice with him for 3 games. theres absolutely nothing to gain by playing mcnabb. win or lose these next 3 weeks this season was a disaster for the taterskins.
and on top of that mcnabb got 3.5 mil for being benched so please stop with the he deserves better than this crap. mcnabb can play the passive aggressive woe is me victim card all he wants and his butt buddy J and lovers in the media like whitlock and wilbon can soak it up but i couldnt give two craps of a shtein about his feelings or his ego. he was terrible this season because hes washed up and over the hill and his team is awful. end of story.
if their back up was jimmy clausen or some young guy they wanted to take a look at i could see
but benching someone for grossmann is just shanny lite being salty
They not only benched Mcnabb, they made him the 3rd stringer behind Grossman AND Beck.
thanks for breaking that news Mike Wallace
the other cf likes the move, obviously
QuoteAnd John Beck has been promoted to second string QB. McNabb is now the Blackskins' third quarterback and will be released after the season as he has a $10 million bonus due in March otherwise. With all the trouble with Albert "The $100 Million Crybaby" Haynesworth and the Blackskins being a bad team again, will be interesting to see what direction Shanahan goes in the offseason as far as the team's demographics go.
Gotta love McNabb's agent whining about the demotion, as if a black player who "handles himself with class" therefore can never be benched no matter how poorly he's playing:
Sooooo... no air guitar in Big D this week?
You tards always have the same avatar.
Sounds like Shanny really wants to see what Beck has, wouldnt be surprised to see him starting next week
Shanahan will not condone the skins signing any more non-white players?
Someone explain how replacing any quarterback with Rex Grossman is a good idea. Thx

they could replace 5 with me and at the end of the season they are still going to try to trade up for andrew luck or offer the eagles two 1st rounders for kolb

Shanny is never going to give it you straight when it comes to injuries. Check his history on it Denver. I believe he actually got his hand smacked for it with the Injury Report there. You know who else is like that? Belichick.
Shanny isn't going to tell you who the starter is at QB, kicker or any other position. In fact just the other day he specifically told the media the following:
On if Donovan McNabb will be starting on Sunday:
"I don't go through the starting lineups. I've told you guys that before. We talk about it every week. Sooner or later, you'll come to the game and find out who's starting."
Don't expect Shanny to squash the Rex/McNabb rumors. In fact, I'd expect him, given his words & actions, to actually fan the flames on these rumors just so Dallas has no idea which QB to prepare for.
Shanny will play mind games with opponents. Right now, he's got a serious Jedi Mind **** going on between Jason Garrett's ears. Hopefully he neither confirms nor denies anything the rest of the week.

There are eagles peoples that have pushed voting campaigns and have been voting - there's no limit to the number of times one can vote. Problem is voting closes in a couple of days and McNabb is probably at least a couple hundred thousand votes from taking over one of the top 4 nfc qbs (and fans only count for a third).

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/11/02/in-hindsight-eagles-routinely-had-mcnabbs-back/
QuoteIn hindsight, Eagles routinely had McNabb's back
Posted by Mike Florio on November 2, 2010, 9:52 PM EST
Before the 2010 season began, taterskins quarterback Donovan McNabb bemoaned the treatment he received during 11 seasons in Philadelphia.
McNabb said, basically, that the team didn't do enough to publicly prop him up in the face of criticism from media and fans.
Given the manner in which the taterskins have treated McNabb, as expertly chronicled by Jason Whitlock of FOXSports.com, McNabb should be longing for Philly in the same way Randy Moss was longing for Foxboro.
"Now he can see what it looks like when no one has his back and the coach is more than happy to throw you under the bus with the truth," explained a source with knowledge of the situation when McNabb was in Philadelphia. "Shanahan knew exactly what he was doing and what the consequences would be. I'll bet McNabb longs for the days when he thinks the Eagles didn't defend him."
There were plenty of things the Eagles could have pointed out about McNabb, during his career or after trading him within the division. McNabb struggled in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl XXXIX, either due to lack of "cardiovascular endurance" or his inability to master the two-minute offense. He didn't have many come-from-behind wins during his career. He blamed young players for struggles against the Cowboys last year. Those young players fully supported Kevin Kolb.
Through it all, the Eagles' organization has taken the high road. In Washington, Shanahan hasn't, adding insult to injury by first benching McNabb and then telling shifting, inconsistent stories regarding the reasoning for the move.
Whitlock thinks Shanahan is protecting his son, Kyle, the team's offensive coordinator. Regardless, Shanahan isn't protecting McNabb — and that highlights the fact that the Eagles did much more for McNabb than anyone ever realized during his tenure with the team.

Other than us, you mean.
Naturally.
I read some of those threads on ES and it cracks me up that some of them truly believe that Shanahan is trying to keep Garrett and Dallas guessing as to whom to prepare for; McNabb or Grossman. Like there's no tape on either of them.
I would have said that neither of them needs preparing for, but to each his own.
Yeah, but its allllllll part of Shanny's plan!

In March, Andy Reid couldn't believe there weren't more teams in the NFL interested in trading less than a first-round pick for McNabb. In fact, there was only one: Washington. I've found out recently that the Raiders did not have a viable trade offer on the table; the Eagles could have gotten maybe a fourth-round pick from Oakland for him, but nothing like the offer headed by a second-rounder from Washington. Had the taterskins not come through with their offer, Reid probably would have held on to McNabb and let the best quarterback win the job in Philadelphia this year.

And McNabb is going to the #3 QB the last two weeks.

Just awful.
Let me help you out: the latter.
McNabb welcomed back in DC.... as a Backup (http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81d21c2c/article/shanahan-mcnabb-welcome-back-in-washington-as-backup)
Oh how the mighty have fallen...
Statement from Mcnabb's agent Fletcher Smith:
QuoteFletcher Smith, agent for Washington taterskins quarterback Donovan McNabb, this afternoon released a statement regarding the way his client has been treated during the benching.
He says offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan has been the biggest problem in the whole situation, and that problems arose when McNabb made suggestions to the offensive coordinator about tweaking aspects of the offense.
The statement from Smith follows in its entirety.
"I think it is important to clarify some misinterpretations following Donovan comments made earlier this week on his radio show.
"Donovan did say that "he didn't want to go anywhere" and that he "enjoyed himself" in the Washington DC area. He and his family truly enjoy living in the Washington,DC, area and are overwhelmed by the outpouring of support the fans have shown him this year.
"He stated that he wishes to stay in Washington because he came to complete a task -- and that task has not yet been accomplished.
"While Donovan's feelings about Washington remain the same, the Shanahans -- both Mike and more specifically Kyle -- have made this an extremely difficult relationship to maintain.
"Their comments have been beyond disrespectful and unprecedented for a six-time Pro Bowl quarterback such as Donovan.
"There have been many reports leaked of Donovan not being in shape and not being able to grasp Kyle's offense.
"The fact is Donovan came into camp in the best shape of his career having dropped 10 pounds in the offseason. Donovan spent most of his offseason in Washington working out with the taterskins and never missed a practice.
"Unfortunately, it appears as though the taterskins coaching staff decided that their 12-year veteran quarterback, who flawlessly executed one of the NFL's most complex offensive systems (in Philadelphia), is unable to grasp Kyle's offense.
"I believe there is tension between Donovan and Kyle that's rooted in the fact that Donovan has suggested modifications to Kyle's offense based on intricacies Donovan has learned in his NFL career.
"For example, Donovan has asked all year that the team run more screen passes to help manage the pass rush more effectively. Ironically, Kyle decided to employ Donovan's suggestions after he unceremoniously benched him on Sunday.
"After Donovan quickly led the taterskins down the field and scored what appeared to be the game saving drive against Tampa Bay, Kyle was quoted as saying "He'll (McNabb) never take another snap for me again."
"Remember that statement came after Donovan led the taterskins on one of their best drives of the entire season.
"Donovan is coming off a Pro Bowl season in 2009 where he threw for 3,500+ yards on 60% completions, with a TD:INT ratio of more than 2:1. He also led his team to the playoffs with an 11-5 record, and that's what he hoped to accomplish in Washington.
"This year, Donovan was on pace to set the taterskins all-time passing yards mark before being benched.
Every week he went out there in solidarity with his teammates with one goal: to win as much as possible for the fans in this town who deserve a championship caliber team.
"Make no mistake, this has been a difficult season for Donovan. Some may say that he has had a down year....that is true specifically because of the high standards that he has set as an elite NFL quarterback in his previous 11 seasons.
"Donovan has maintained a high level of professionalism on and off the field. He is determined to continue his relentless commitment to win and looks forward to the opportunity wherever that may be!"

What a colossal train wreck
Flawlessly executed the offense in Philly, huh?
If any of that shtein about Kyle S is true the taterskins are even more farged than I thought.
I can just imagine Andy putting one of his sons on the coaching staff. Weekly raids on the trainer's office would get really hard to cover up after a while.
typical donovan, having someone else do his bidding for him
sometimes its mama wilma, sometimes its that drunken doofus daddy sammy, sometimes its hugh douglas cold cocking TO in the training room. today, it's his agent throwing kyle shanahan under the bus.
not that that little prick doesnt deserve it, but for the love of god donovan speak up yourself. youre like 35. a grown ass man with a wife and kids. and people are still doing your talking for you.
but youd expect nothing less from a life-long loser like 5 and this once again exemplifies why he never had it in him to win a super bowl
donovan actually went on wash radio and gave his take the other day....thing is he doesnt have it in him to completely go after anyone...i mean TO basically sodomized him and he could barely get a word out....
what he said about the shanahans was his typical milquetoast and passive aggressiveness....like he said he didnt agree with the move itself and how it was done then says in the next sentence hed like to be back in dc next year
its sickening
and today was he running scout team offense. on what planet does someone with the kind of success donovan has had the money he makes and the stature he has accept that. you do as AI did and go off and say aint no all star, mvp coming off the bench. but AI is a legend god philly icon and donovan is better than bobby hoying.
Donovan McNabb - What will his role be for game 1 of the 2011 NF Regular Season?
Starting QB for the taterskins 7/1
Starting QB for the Vikings 5/2
Starting QB for the Cardinals 4/1
Starting QB for the 49ers 15/2
Starting QB for any Other NFL Team 3/2
Backup QB for Any NFL Team 7/2
Not on an NFL Roster 15/1
Did you make that or are those actual odds? The 3:2 line would be money of it's real. There are enough qb starved teams -- one will give him a shot.
Real odds on Bodog.

QuoteIt's understandable that Donovan McNabb and taterskins offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan butted heads this year. It happens.
It's inexplicable that the Shanahan camp and the McNabb camp continue to go back-and-forth at each other in public, as if that is going to help matters. One day after McNabb's agent took on Kyle Shanahan and Mike Shanahan responded, the younger Shanahan spoke with reporters.
"I called Donovan on the phone, mentioned I wanted to have a conversation with him to find out what this was all about," Kyle Shanahan said Friday, according to Dan Steinberg of the Washington Post. "And when I talked to Donovan [on Thursday], he said he didn't say any of that.
"I'm like, 'Well yeah, your agent did, which to me is you.' And he said he didn't agree with any of that, those words didn't come out of his mouth, he didn't tell his agent that stuff. So all I can go off is what Donovan tells me. And we've never had a confrontation all year, never had an argument, everything's been good."
(So basically McNabb is lying to his agent or Shanahan. We'll vote Shanahan.)
McNabb declined to comment Friday with a laugh. Kyle Shanahan also found humor in McNabb's agent Fletcher Smith's suggestion that the taterskins changed the offense for Rex Grossman last week.
"That quote was almost — I mean, it was entertaining," Shanahan said. "Asking Donovan about that, he nor I remember that conversation. To hear that we had a different offense for Rex is a joke."

QuoteAfter the season, McNabb is planning to meet with the taterskins and ask them for his release. McNabb wants to be in a position where he can pick the place to finish his career, not have it dictated to him as was the case last season when Philadelphia traded him to Washington.
What's great is the Skins will get nothing for him in a trade because no one is going to take on that contract.
So in that case we should applaud McNabb. Got a draft pick out of the Skins for the EAgles, and will in return get them absolutely nothing. That's in the top 5 things he's done for the Eagles in his career :yay

lol at ESPN and this load of shtein:
QuoteAfter the season, McNabb is planning to meet with the taterskins and ask them for his release. McNabb wants to be in a position where he can pick the place to finish his career, not have it dictated to him as was the case last season when Philadelphia traded him to Washington.
What's great is the Skins will get nothing for him in a trade because no one is going to take on that contract.
im still waiting for clayton to apologize for his "one of the worst moves in nfl history" comment
and there isnt enough bad things that can happen to mcnabb
My favorite were all the "Be careful what you wish for Philly" people. If this doesn't prove Eagles fans know what the farg we're talking about then nothing will.

QuoteWe're fifty percent better than last year!
Today's game was just plain fun. The D finally played better than decent. They played well. The special team's was solid. The pups acquitted themselves really well. Cooley... well, everyone's entitled to a dog of a game, I suppose. Grossman's numbers would have actually looked pretty good with those five extra catches.
So, take this as a step forward. We have a long way's to go, but at least we're moving.
Still we won four last year and so with six this year we are fifty percent improved.

If what has been reported that Donovan McNabb has said today to Kyle Shanahan and anyone in the DC media, he is a coward, a straight up coward
Everything TO said about him in 2005 has been validated

Don't, just shut the farg up about it.

that little bitchface mcnabb wants to be released
well guess what you whiny little pathetic girl, you shouldnt have signed that extension 2 months ago. now i hope either the skins stash your mopey, passive aggressive douchey ass on the bench or trade you to buffalo or something.
You have leapfrogged Havas in the McNabb obsession category. I think he raped you or something.
It's all part of his plan for daddy havas' approval. In reality... I don't think he even cares one way or the other about 5.
so where's deion sanders with his " i luv me sum donovan mcnabb" crap now ?

Words cant even express how beyond a true statement this is. He doesnt even like football in general. Hes here to bash everyone's tv show likings, convince others how bad of a gambler he is, talk about munson and imitate igy.
I really hope these two have met more than a couple of times because if not he needs to sprint to his therapist or write a letter to igy, get naked and hang himself from his shower head.

He's mindfarging another team into thinking the Skins don't want a QB, that way other teams think we still want Mcnabb and they'll make a trade for him.

08:04 AM ET 12.29 | Donovan McNabb's contractually obligated radio appearance Tuesday did little to shine a light on what is really going on in the unraveled relationship between the quarterback and the team. To be sure, Smith and McNabb have discussed an exit strategy, though McNabb continues to maintain he would like to return to Washington, albeit under different circumstances. The Shanahans, however, have already determined that McNabb is not suited for their offense, according to people familiar with the situation. It would be best for McNabb if the taterskins released him immediately after the season, enabling him to choose his next team. But Mike Shanahan may not be in an accommodating mood, especially after last week's events. ... The taterskins could wait until the first game of the 2011 season to release McNabb and owe him nothing.
The Washington Post
In my opinion, McNabb is deserving of nothing. He wanted that extra $3.5 million, so he signed that sham of a contract extension. The skins paid for the right to keep him twisting in the wind, and they should do just that.

The Washington Post
Judging by how Shanahan has handled Haynesworth, it would be a poor time for McNabb to change his longstanding tactics and try to pressure his way out of washington. It seemed his agent was angling toward that. Shanahan would probably keep him on the bench just to spite him.
