Donovan McNabb

[c0r]

03 was absolutely not mcnabbs fault.

Bush, Copper, Meachum, Coulston, Shockey.......

Lance Moore!

McNabb is good, but he's not an elite QB. There really are only two elite QBs in the league at the moment (well technically one this season). Rivers, Cutler and Ryan all have the potential to join that group though.

Ryan? Lets all remember Mr. Anderson from last year.

rep...i have been thinking this all season.

I would put him in the #3 of the last decade. But I wouldn't say he's elite. I agree with the assessment that only 2 have been elite (Manning and Brady). RIGHT NOW however, the elite is Manning, Brady if he comes back OK, and Brees. Followed by Rivers and McNabb. Brees, as much as I hate to say it, is amazing. When a QB makes unknowns look like pro-bowlers, that's when you know, just like Brady early on and when those guys left they were never as good anywhere else (Branch, anyone?).

Don't even bring up Ryan, he is a good leader and a good QB, but his numbers aren't that super, Cutler the same, he's inconsistent.

eh, rivers is good this year, but donovan has done it for a long time.

and yea, i know SDs receivers, they are under rated. vincent jackson and i remeber chris chambers because i had him on my fantasy team last year, when he was traded from the dolphins. i cant remeber who the #2 was before chambers got there though(im not counting Gates as a reciever), he probably sucked, or they wouldnt have brought in chambers mid season

Vincent Jackson had his first good year this year.

Chambers is good, not great.

The old number 2 was eric parker....out of the league.

Malcolm Floyd, Leggado Naanne, and Buster Davis are behind them.

03 was absolutely not mcnabbs fault.

Whether it was his fault or not, he gave up. In a championship game. Like I said, he's a good if not great quarterback. But if I'm putting a team together, I want someone who plays hardest when the pressure's on, and that ain't McNabb.

[c0r]

if i recall, didnt he take a hit that broke his rib or something along those lines?

and the WRs lost that game for the eagles. not mcnabb.

You need to overlook Peyton Manning as well. I have never seen so many one and dones in the playoffs as he and Dungy have had.

[JoCoLoco]

He took several hits in that game, and ended up with bruised ribs. Never broke one if what the org. said is true. Still, people have played with far worse. I don't hold that he lost that game by himself, the Panthers just demolished them defensively. However, he didn't do anything to help them win it, either.

Without Andy Reid's philosophy of any-receiver-off-the-street I think McNabb would have even more incredible numbers. Jackson looks like the real deal, but the rest look like training camp fodder.

..has been the best QB in the league since he was benched in Week 12 (he's won 5 of 6 since then). Its almost unbelievable to think people were calling him "finished" or said it was time for the Kevin Kolb era in Philly. During his last 4 games he completed 63% of his passes, threw for 886 yards, 9 TDs and 1 INT to give Philly a playoff birth when most left them for dead. Yesterday he put up 300 yards & a TD in a tough road game against Minnesota. I know Philly is a tough place to play, and Donovan has had some bad games, but he's has always seemed to be a magnet for criticism as a QB and leader. I think the job he's done the past few weeks has only added to his legend and helped solidify him as the 3rd best QB of this decade behind Manning & Brady.

Wasn't that the same McNabb that could only muster 3 points against an imploding Washington team.

When he is on....he is great. However, he is not consistent.
