Donovan Speaks

[shorebird]

He's just not hard. Never was, never will be. Peyton is pretty hard at times. You're a Colt, you know who's boss. Doens't mean he acts like it all day, but you understand the situation. It may be similar with the Eagles--obviously it's McNabb's team--but its certainly not because Donovan ever smacks a bitch.

Manning gets more atttention just because of what Dio says, he's more vocal and call most all his own plays. I'd like to see how Manning would do with Pinky and Thrash to throw to for three years straight.

It gets me how most people think Manning is such a great qb compared to McNabb when Manning has had ten times the talent on offense that McNabb has had and never won a championship game or went to the Superbowl. He just throws interceptions in big games. Only thing Manning has over Dmac are greater players around him and numbers.

And a great o-line.

Donovan doesn't seem to let everyone know when he is hurt. That can disguise his supposed reluctance to run. Kind of like Napoleon wearing a red jacket in battle.

You're as dumb now as you were the last time you posted here.

A comment from Don McKee today:

Would you take Vince Young over Donovan McNabb right now?

If you even have to think about it, the answer should be yes. Because if a five-time all-pro who is only 29 is not light years ahead of a college junior, then the all-pro is doing something vastly wrong.

Anyone who actually would have to think about that is a complete and utter moron.

Rookies are the way to go. They always pan out and become superstars. Everyone knows this, it's a proven fact.

Frankley, I would prefer we just let Antwaan Randle-El play QB. Sure he has no arm, but he'll break one or two exicting plays per game and thats what matters.

I agree. Vince Young has not proven anything in the pros yet. You just suddenly ditch a QB who takes you to 4 straight NFC Championship games and a Superbowl?

Read Bill Simmons Rose Bowl blog.  It sums up Young's passing motion beautifully.

{Paraphrasing} As if he just realized he has dog poop in his hand and is trying to fling it off.

[TexasEagle]

Young is good, but he hasn't proven a thing in the pros. He could turn out to be another Vick with a better arm. He's got talent, but there's no telling if he can is on sundays... yet. I'd stick with McNabb without a doubt.

[rjs246]

Anyone who thinks that Young is going to make a viable professional quarterback has never seen him play. I can't wait for another team to draft him.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Don McKee is a hack. He's not even a first string hack either...he picks up the scraps on WIP and gets to write a 30 word piece in the Inky once in awhile.

Cram it, Don. And your laugh is annoying too.

I'm with you.  He looks like the prototypcial exciting collage QB whose skills and scheme don't translate well to the pros; it'll be years before he knows enough to help a team consistently...if it ever happens at all.

Exactly. It's so obvious that you would take Young, why even ask the question?

That sounds like Michael (Mike?) Vick.
