Redskins coach Mike Shanahan, in the team's last game Sunday, benched McNabb for, well, he couldn't decide on the main reason. It was either that he didn't have the "cardiovascular health" or didn't know how to run the two minute offense as well, or his hamstring, whatever. But let's face it. Donovan McNabb is a better quarterback than Rex Grossman, the Redskins backup. McNabb hasn't had the greatest year, but he is still a quality alternative to anything else the Redskins have. There is really no point to what Shanahan is trying to do. A player of his stature should have the benefit of the doubt, especially when there is no one who could compete for the job. Shanahan needs to treat McNabb like any other franchise QB, because that is his only option. Putting Grossman in to throw an interception won't help the Skins' cause.
