McNabb a REDSKIN!

Sheesh, ESPN980 is just obsessed on the fact that AH was dangled on the McNabb trade :doh:

Why do they have to come off as such pricks all the time?

Drama sells.

I'm sure other players were discussed too

Let the Campbell wheeling and dealing begin! Campbell has been a class act through and through. I wish him the best of luck wherever he goes, well unless he plays us!

Yeah, Campbell is gone. How long do you think he takes his other team to the superbowl? Rich Gannon, Trent Green, and Brad Johnson....................Now, Jason Campbell. I'm thinking that unkown team is Arizona and its going to take him two years.

Drama sells.

I'm sure other players were discussed too

Exactly! Landry was also in the discussions apparently.

I swear, this is why I only listen to Football Today. I think both sports stations are crap in this area.

Anybody else get the sense that this could be similar to the 98-99 season? We sucked in 98, then got a fairly successful veteran in Brad Johnson and won the division.

Different coaching situation obviously, but the QBs aren't all that dissimilar.

Well, Shanahan is the best coach in decades we've had not named Joe Gibbs.

We now have 3 RBs who could ALL excel in a shared role, especially under Shanny's offense. We'll pass less than Andy Reid, so McNabb will have less of a responsibility than he's used to. Our D is going to be solid as usual.

We'll definitely be better than the Eagles, who just dismantled their team and have a big question mark with Kolb and no defense.

The Giants are usually in turmoil and that probably won't change. They massively underachieved last season after assembling what looked like the best defensive line in the NFL.

The Cowboys still have Wade Phillips and Tony Romo to choke things away.



Things are looking up for us.

McNabb has 3rd-highest winning percentage among active quarterbacks (83-45-1, .647) behind Manning (119-59, .669) and Brady (88-25, .779).

And no rings to show for it.

Takes more than ONE man. either way, he is an upgrade.

822 replies, this has got to be a record thread.

What a shocker. I can't even grasp all of this. I used to think McNabb was overrated. I came around and think he's a pretty damn good asset.

Now, for the Skins, I don't really know what to think here. Does he renogiate his contract? He's only good for 2010. Did we give up a 2nd and a 3rd/4th rounder for 1 year? I would think not. I think McNabb has several good years left in him. I think i've got to reserve judgement to see if we have him more than 1 year.

He immediately makes us better. We still don't have an oline. We are still missing some key pieces. We still need to build thru the draft, but we don't have really any picks left besides #4. Hmmm...

What puts this into perspective is knowing there are guys listed under McNabb who have won at least ONE...

^^I posted this last night on like the fourth page about LaRon and Albert being used as trade bait for this trade.

Dude, read my post. I'm not saying that blowing up this team was a bad thing. I just said that adding a veteran quarterback to a team that is rebuilding is a HORRIBLE THING!!! We need those picks to draft lineman and linebackers. We're 3-4 right? We need more linebackers too! This is dumb! And Pathetic! And yes, Vinny orchestrated this deal. I know he did!

I think Allen and Shanahan don't believe in rebuilding. They think they can win now with this roster. You don't bring in Mike Shanahan for a rebuilding project. Allen said that he expects guys to play better and we know they'll be coached better. Oline is still a huge concern so I'm sure they have a plan for that. Let's wee what happens on draft day. I'm still hoping for Brandon Marshall!!!! McNabb to Marshall! OK I'll stop dreaming.
