Going to the Jaquars, Oakland, Minnesota, Arizona, or San Francisco makes sense for the teams involved. It sounds as if McNabb would have his own preferences like Minnesota and the 49ers.

I really don't think he fits in Carolina right now. We are going young and he would put a serious kink in Moore's development as McNabb would want to be the starter. He will want a 3 year contract rather than play out the remainder on his current contract and I don't see us doing that. Thirdly McNabb has never played in a run heavy scheme with downfield passing. I think he could adapt but he is not ideally suited for our scheme. For all of these and other reasons I haven't thought of, I hope he gets to go to the team of his choosing if the Eagles let him go with I think is still a mistake, but I don't see the Panthers as a great fit for him nor is he a great fit for us.

If the 49ers want to have a chance to win next year they would do well to get McNabb imo.

They will already win the division now that Warner is retired, and McNabb might just be able to lead them through the playoffs.

McNabb doesn't really have a choice on where he goes does he?
Like Saltman said, you don't want to pick up a guy in the last year of his contract unless you know you can sign him longterm and he will play for the money you are offering. He could be forced to go somewhere for the year but would be a FA again next year. So teams who decide to trade for him will likely already have a contract worked out and McNabb would be willing to go there. Unless you are the Raiders who seem to make a bunch of stupid deals all the time.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By LegioX · Posted

      Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
