Desperate franchises will give their left nut for a QB like McNabb. The thing is as long as the offensive scheme stays the same, maybe a select few QB's(Brady, Manning) would be able to do better than McNabb. Even if the Birds had Brady or Manning, next year with the same offensive playcalling, they wouldn't win the superbowl. If we had a dominant run game, with the personell to compliment that, I think we might have a chance. We could put an ok QB at the helm and tell him to throw 15-20 passes a game. The only way I would trade McNabb was if this was the scheme and the guy we got in return was a top 5 RB in the league to compliment that run style. Possibly have extra money from McNabb's contract to look for a mid-top level linebacker also...I mean I can dream about this on and on....REGGIE BUSH!!

I want to like McNabb, but he's frustrated me as much as thrilled me from Day One.

10. Reid lost me when he gave the team off after 3 straight losses.

How does that relate to your view of what the team should do with/about McNabb/QB position?

Cerevant · November 22, 2006, 12:43:45 PM

Because you don't take an aging, beat up QB into a new system. You trade him for whatever you can get and start rebuilding.

I think you have to let McNabb take the helm again when he's healthy, but with a different offensive philosophy.

If he can return and they put a bruising fullback in the back field, with a bona fide starting RB and change of pace RB to spell the starter, then yeah...

Exactly.

I don't think you necessarily HAVE TO draft a QB this year, but definitely within the next 3.

Do you think that Reid could start over with a new franchise QB if he had the opportunity to take one with a high first-round draft pick?

In a word, no. Unless it were determined that McNabb will never play another down of football, Reid is going to stick with him.

Besides, this team isn't bad enough to rebuild yet. Unfortunately, they aren't good enough to legitmately contend for anything beyond a wild card spot at best.
