Would you like to see him on the Panthers? He is 33 and is obviously a great QB. I for one would like to see him here to compete*. Might cost us alot, haven't researched any of that. Just going off a blurb I read in the Observer that he might be out of Phily.

(*This kind of blows up King T's "Nobody in Charlotte wants a black QB!!!11!!" hypothesis, but whatever.)

He's done as much in the postseason as Jake Delhomme...which isn't much. I'd rather not sell our future AGAIN to get an aging QB. Even though I think McNabb could play another 5 years, I'd rather not get stuck in a rut of going out and taking every other team's high priced table scraps.

the past 10 seasons.....the Eagles have had a losing record 1 time.

the past 10 seasons.....the Eagles have made the playoffs 8 times.

I would gladly take McNabb. Many of those seasons he has had a medicore group of WRs and questionable offensive playcalling.

McNabb has been leaving Philly for the last decade. As long a Reid is coach McNabb isn't going anywhere.

I tend to agree but one thing that is different is that as of now McNabb would be entering into the final year of his contract. I am not so sure he would be willing to play in the last year of his contract with the risk of injury. That is not something QB's normally do is it?

I would love to see McNabb come to Carolina. I want him to do well and I think he would be a good fit here in Charlotte and as a Philly fan, I am ready for the Kolb era to begin. I want a championship and the McNabb/Reid led Eagles is not going to do that.

    • I hope Bryce balls out. Wouldn't bet the farm on it though. Morgan has to be practical though. He was placed into a situation where he was compelled to give Bryce a long look. There really haven't been any more practical options due to who has been available at the position. The Panthers had already put their chips in with Bryce, so putting more chips in by borrowing against the future and stacking on that by borrowing against the future without really having the requisite draft capital was a nonstarter. We could either dump Bryce and go dumpster diving for known and unknown JAGs at the position, or take out chances and let it play out with Bryce and hope for acceptable returns. Due to what looks like some good moves in the draft and free agency, it appears like we're finally getting into a position where we can take a swing again if need be without destroying the core of the team. I understand that you'll believe it when you see it, but Dan is gonna move on if Bryce can't cut it. There are too many professionals lives and careers tied to Bryce to simply accept the status quo. 
    • Football is the ultimate team sport. No sport is more dependent on others for your success - including coaching. I don't know if Bryce is the guy, but I do know this has been a very bad team all around since he got here. One of the worst o-lines and coaching staffs I've ever seen his rookie year. One of the worst defenses and receiving groups (including TEs) I've ever seen his 2nd season - with a rookie HC and OC. An improving WR group his 3rd season mostly due to a rookie. The only other WR of note didn't really play well until after the 10th game of the season due to injury. Still no receiving TE to speak of. And lost games because of the worst pass rush in the NFL. And the only speed he's ever had on the field was DJ Chark. A washed up DJ Chark that played here one year and has had 31 yards receiving since leaving.  Carolina had no business moving up for a QB in 2023. They weren't ready. Especially if it meant trading your only good WR to do it. Now finally there's potential on defense. Potential on o-line. Potential at WR, including some actual speed in a game where speed kills. If BY falls on his face this season, then he has to own it. Situation may not be perfect, but it's at least NFL average across the board. I won't beat him up for being bad in bad situations on a bad team. But a 4th year QB has to be able to control the offense and make players/coaches right. The team looks good enough on paper to show what he can do now.   
    • Mr. 0-2 every year to start the season in his career. Last year was the first year he ever played a week 3 game.
