Finally i hate defending myself at school people will see this year i can sit their and laugh and see al of those bandwagons from 04 jump back on mcnabb got injured get over it he is back
I never said he was bad. He's had some devastating injuries and he's not a kid anymore. The Eagles have a very talented team for at least the next few years. If he tears his knee up again this year I think they at least have to look at bringing in someone who is healthy next year. There comes a point where you have to decide is he going to be able to complete a full season and playoffs.
Donovan McNabb is not only a great player, but a great model. He truly conducts his lifestyle as a leader both on and off the field. He is not only the type of person you want leading a team, but also the type of person who is truly dedicated, to his team, and his city. I feel like he is the finest quarterback Philadelphia has had, and it would truly be an honor to see him retire an Eagle. Some of my great regrets were watching Reggie White, and Randall Cunningham not playing their last years as Eagles. I hope that it is different for Donovan.
justwannawinna is exactly right. he ranked equally to the likes of Tom Brady and (dare i say it) Peyton Manning when we had a weapon, by whom i will not refer to, but nonetheless, if we acquire a true no. 1 WR, Super 5 will have a dominating presence in the NFC, and the NFL for that matter. With the addition of, for example we shall say, Chad Johnson, the Eagles redzone scoring will be vastly better, along with the return of a healtny LJ Smith. My point is, with a weapon, McNabb will finally get the respect he has earned, and the Birds have a shot at winning it all.
there is no need for you to "put dare i say" in paranthesis when you say that. peytons had weapons his whole career, hes never had to throw to to the likes of charles johnson as his primary reciever, or todd pinkston as his primary reciever, or an extremely washed up antonio freeman, or james thrash or na brown or freedie mitchelle... mcnabb has thrown to those clowns and won 4 straight division titles and went to 3 straight nfc championship games. they get him a weapon he wins his 5 straight division title and 1st NFC championship, and goes on to the superbowl. manning does absolutely NOTHING without the weapons hes had his whole career in harrison, wayne and clark, stokely was just a beneficary of all that talent...
I would love to see McNabb retire as an eagle, he has taken way too much abuse over the years for stupid BS and yet he still handles himself like a true champion. I have a lot of respect for #5, not only as a player but as a person and when given the proper people around him he will easily show you he is a top QB. I mean WTF, the man has done things in this league with a group of recievers no other QB would even consider trying to play with and that says a lot about the man. I have no worries, I think this year he will put up some great numbers and boy oh boy if he gets that #1 guy, look out cause the Eagles will be the team to beat.
How many quarterbacks would make it to the NFC championship over and over with James Thrash, Freddie Mitchell and Todd Pinkston? McNabb is awesome on the field and off!!!
Although I thought he should go this year the guy leaves it all on the field for his team and that's all you can ask. If he does have another year like last year I agree with you.
