Donovan McNabb

[Zanshin]

I'll just say that as a football player, McNabb was did a lot of good things during his time with the team. That said, the more he talks the less fondly I remember those times, unfortunately.

He very well may have, but if I'm not mistaken he basically opened with the "we showed our youth" comment.  He put that out there first and foremost.

so he threw all those guys under the bus and then also said he didnt play his best?

that doesnt at all sound like the passive aggresive bedwetter i know

was the we showed our youth game the same as the air guitar

[ice grillin you]

week before

the reason he claims he came out with the air guitar was because the previous week everyone was saying how tight the team was due to him throwing all the young guys under the bus....so that was his way of loosening everyone up

[MDS]

remember they had a band? an air guitar band? grown men in their 30s had an air guitar band.

Some people sharpen their focus and some play air guitar.

[ice grillin you]

if it didnt fire the team up at least it got him off to a good start right?

not exactly

at the two minute warning of the first half in that game he was 2-12 for 14 yards

Which means he was complaining about his teammates not being old enough, right?

Making excuses is a form of complaining especially when we're talking about athletics.

Just thinking more about this, and I'm curious.

Of the Eagles notable modern QBs, say, Jaworski, Cunningham and McNabb, which one would you take as a franchise QB-- assuming each is in his physical prime.

[Zanshin]

I guess you could add Vick to that list, too. You'd be an idiot to pick him, but I suppose it would be an option.

[hbionic]

Donnie Mac without a question, as douchey as he turned out to be. We had no chance without him.

[shorebird]

I'd take Cunningham with a much better coach and offense around him. Look what he did in one year way past his prime in Minny.

[QB Eagles]

Best line of the PC by McNabb was at the very end when he said like "In the decade of the 2000s, we were in the top three in winning percentage, and that's something no one can ever take away from us."

Must have been a proud moment for him, given all those years he spent growing up dreaming of the day he would lead a team to be in the top three in winning percentage.
