Albert Haynesworth impresses coach

[Hasselbeck]

McNabb was a future HOFer before that trade to Washington. Reid did the deal not because of anything McNabb did right or wrong, he did it because Kolb was 26 and McNabb was 34 with a year left on their deals, and he believed in Kolb.

Right... because if McNabb weren't on a steady decline, Reid definitely didn't mind seeing him go to Washington.

Come on Dave..

And he works for a newspaper....bends head forward, face palms and shakes head.

Dave continues his constant flat out wrong streak. I'm honestly starting to wonder if ramsjackson took over his account.

His streak must have started back at MM, because I can't remember when Dave had the right opinion.

[BigBucs]

When he wants to be, there's not a better DT in the league. That's the only problem..."when he wants to be".

Suh is better than him already. Suh is the kind of player that will give it his all year in and year out, every game, every snap.

[Diivox]

a player plays better when his coach properly motivates him and when he's a part of a well run organization?

fucking shocking.

[Champ]

Is dave serious?

stfu dave. McNabb wasn't a future HOFer.

I don't think Shanahan is a racist, so I apologize if it comes across that way.
But I do think McNabb was a future HOFer before he was traded to Washington.
I will always have McNabb's back, he was a great Eagle and gets way more criticism than he deserves. And you can't tell me John Beck is a better QB than McNabb. Shanahan was simply threw McNabb under a bus which helped Shanahan get away with a lousy season.
And Haynesworth, while obviously a jerk, had a point. Why switch to a 3-4 when you just paid $41 million to a 4-3 DT? It made no sense. A smart coach would have done his utmost to tailor a system to his best player, you can be damn sure Belichick will do it in New England.
Shanahan's whole tenure in Washington has been a disaster.

It's not up to Haynesworth what system they play regardless how much money he's making. It's his job to go out and perform.

As for McNabb, well, you're just being dumb.

His shanahan statement sounds more like TheBrain.


Haynesworth is the only guy off the top of my head in recent memory that can just as easily be the biggest waste of space on the roster...or the most dominant player on his side of the ball. Even a decrepid lazy Moss was useful as a decoy. Albert just took naps on the ground.

Moss on the '06 team would give Haynesworth a run for his money. He was still productive at times last year.

Never said he wasn't a lazy bastard though.
