SIR - McNabb?


Recommended Posts

if it wasn't for the fact that he comes from an andy reid WCO, i'd think it would be a great idea. hard to think of a better mentor for newton.

coming from that offense really handicaps QBs transitioning to another system. it doesn't necessarily need to be someone from an identical offense, but it should be someone with experience in a non-WCO.

i don't think that he would be hard to get, though. price and expectations will be lower than people think. it won't be dante culpepper bad of prospects, but he won't exactly be getting favre type offers either.

still, he's going to wind up going to a very QB needy team.

Donovan McNabb signed to a five-year extension worth $78 million, $40 million of which is guaranteed, could potentially be worth $88 million if McNabb meets certain performance-based incentives. Idiots.

redskins have a loophole that gets them out of the deal.

Well, it turns out the Redskins haven't completely lost their mind when you look at the figures secured from the NFL Players Association by ESPN's Adam Schefter on Tuesday. If the Redskins decide to cut ties with McNabb following this season, they'd only be on the hook for $3.75 million. This had the makings of an Albert Haynesworth-type albatross when news broke Monday afternoon, but the actual figures make more sense in the light of day.

My favorite line in Schefter's report: "The deal's maximum value is $88.5 million if McNabb leads his team to a Super Bowl victory every year."

not sure who you are calling idiots.

the contract he has with the redskins doesn't mean much to anyone...unless the redskins decide to keep him around.

Maybe I am wrong but doesn't the contract come with him when he is traded?

he wouldn't stay with that deal. that contract would be renegotiated to something far more reasonable. no one believes that he would stay under anything close to that contract.

it's essentially a non-issue.

I would be in favor of it. I don't think him coming from a WCO would be a bad thing. He is a good quarterback. The Redskins just didnt have the talent on offense for them to succeed. The year before, McNabb put up some really good numbers in Philly. I think in our offense with our young receievers and running game, McNabb could succeed here as well as become the perfect mentor for Cam. But either way, I think Cam will be fine with or without one.

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
