Owens then took a jab at McNabb.

"Well, I don't really want to start anything, but I did play in the Super Bowl, and there were rumors where he couldn't get our two-minute offense going at the end of the game," Owens said. "I'm just saying."

When pressed on the matter by Ochocinco, Owens said: "I'm just saying."

Owens defended Redskins coach Mike Shanahan's decisions to change quarterbacks, saying the coach knows best.

"He's the head coach, so it has to make sense," said Owens, who has complained that the Bengals aren't paying attention to his suggestions for the offense. "Well, this is a situation where Mike Shanahan, he sees these two quarterbacks on an everyday basis. ... So he's had a chance to observe."

Ochocinco ended the segment by saying: "If anyone else out there feels that Rex Grossman gives the Washington Redskins a better chance than Donovan McNabb to win a game with two minutes left on the clock, they need to slap they selves."

You go Ocho! Tell them.

[Johns Bass]

Now...tell everyone the Bengals record...Com'on TO - say the words...

"They need to slap they selves..."

[SWFLSkins]

"They need to slap they selves..."

OMG, I think I fell out.

[Skinz4Life12]

he said this on their new show or whatever?

[authentic]

ummmm, last i checked the Bungles are 2-5 and last in thier division. How about they clean thier dirty house before commenting on others. "Just sayin"

[Rufus T Firefly]

People can rag on the Bengals all they want, or dismiss what TO says (generally a very good idea), but he's right that McNabb's performance in the "hurry up" offense was pretty ridiculous.

[MusicCitySkin]

I don't think he has room to criticize quarterbacks when his sucks too.

Just sayin'.

[RandyHolt]

Shanny would blow a fuse if these two were on our team. On the field performance would not be considered when gauging their value to the team.

Shanny would counter their comments by saying focusing on a television show is the root cause of their teams 2-5 record.

[2cents]

Nothing like hearing the opinions of two Rhode Scholars . wonder what they would say on their TV shows if Portis said they both suck.

[WhoRUSupposed2Be]

It won't be long before they start ragging on Palmer also.

Raise your hand if you thought Kyle Orton would be the better QB in the Bears/Denver trade for Jay Cutler. Fact is that Orton is lighting it up and Cutler is throwing balls to the wrong team. All I'm saying by making this point is that Grossman may not be the same QB he was when he was in Chicago. He's more experienced and is in a new system. My guess is that the pick McNabb threw before the benching was the final straw. That ball was thrown into triple coverage which means someone else was single covered or wide open. McNabb tends to lock in on receivers and defenses figure that stuff out. We've all seen it for years. The coaches in the booth have the best look at it and I'll bet he missed some wide open stuff out there. Credit the Lions pass rush for some of those mistakes, but give McNabb his share of the blame to. That pick was horrible, especially with your team leading by 5 points.

[visionary]

McNabb did ok with the last minute offense before the half....

[Hazel-Ra]

How I yearn for the days when the media ignored the Redskins...just sayin'.

[Skinzfever2010]

We went from knocking on the door of legitimacy to being the laughing stock of the leauge again. Thanks Zorn I mean Coach Shanahan.

(casm)

Hail!

Clearly TO still isn't over his issues with McNabb. They tried to be buddies on Pros vs Joes, but he still hates that dude.

[OnlySkins4ever]

Rex is probably a smarter and faster thinker, but for some reason people are so stuck on quarterbacks being able to run and be physical even thought all the best quarterbacks are not known for their physical attributes. The best quarterbacks are known for being smart and quick decisive thinkers.

Yet everyone still jumps on the bandwagon of a quarterback who can run all over the field. I think McNabb is a quarterback who is both physically and mentally decent and we should give him a bit more time. If we had a amazing O-line I would be calling for Rex.

I doubt TO is saying this for his health.

"If anyone else out there feels that Rex Grossman gives the Washington Redskins a better chance than Donovan McNabb to win a game with two minutes left on the clock, they need to slap they selves."

[Outlaw Torn]

I think I found a new quote for my sig. :rotflmao:

[Slacky McSlackAss]

How interesting would it have been if we had signed TO like so many members on this board wanted us to.
