Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

[quote=ChickenMonkey;682381]If you guys dont think this trade is freakin exactly what we needed.....The numbers say it all
2009 Philadelphia Eagles Mc Nabb stats 22 td's- 10 Ints-3,553 yards- 92.3% completions %......Havent seen those numbers in Washington since Doug Williams!![/quote]I don't think any franchise has seen a QB complete 92.3% of his passes like McNabb did last year.

Thanks for the heads up!!!

Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

[quote=NM Redskin;682374]I would hope the staff thinks we can trade down, still bet a quality LT and pick up a second. Maybe then maybe draft a Tebow/McCoy. The idea of Tebow learning under McNabb is intriguing.[/quote]

Well Shanny just made a big acquisition at QB, I think he'd would want the best LT in the draft to watch McNabb's blind side.

[B][FONT=Garamond][SIZE=3][B]While there may be dissension in the ranks about the value of this move, there are a few accomplishments that McNabb has made that do appear to make him the most viable NFL QB Washington has had in a while. [/B][/SIZE][/FONT]

That has to be a new NFL record

Does not compute.

Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

I like it. We could still keep JC, have him ride pine this year and get the mentoring from a good Vet. I think the draft threads should calm down now also, but you never know. We might still draft a QB?

Hey 53. See what happens when I show back up.

I agree, but what is the staffs grade of the lineman? The difference between the best tackle and the 3rd best might not be as great to them as opposed to us and the media.

Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

[quote=SmootSmack;682361]Think of all the QBs that have been rumored to be coming here via trade the past few years-Favre, Vick, Cutler, Hasselbeck-had to get rid of Vinny to finally make it happen!

sort of off-topic, but huge day in sports tomorrow-McNabb trade talk, MLB opening day, NCAA Championship game, Tiger speaks at Augusta[/quote]

Ya, huge day tommorrow. Augusta national is about 300 yards away from my front door. Traffic sucks on Washington Blvd. I did rent out 3 parking spots in front of my house for 35 dollars a day, each, so, I just have to go the back way to fort gordon this week..........

I really hope we get some draft picks from somewhere, or that the situation presents itself to trade down for add'l picks.

We gotta get soething for Capbell now tho, we have to. I hope JC like cold weather..........(Buffalo BIlls?...........)

[quote=GTripp0012;682382][B]This makes Shanahan less likely to win a super bowl[/B], but it would make the returns on it more sweet than if he won it with Campbell!

Wait, no, sorry, they are similar players even in the amount a super bowl win would mean to their detractors. Although we could beat Philly in the NFC Championship.[/quote]

I'll want to stick a fork in my eye for asking...but how so?

Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

[quote=luke4twenty;682360]Rejoice? Nah, but not a terrible move either. [B]We get a QB that has been pretty consistent when healthy (ha),[/B] for a 2nd rounder, who has experience in West Coast offense, who strips a chief rival of their all-time stat leader, and...lets just see if this fires up D-Mac..nothing like feeling WANTED. I mean, Philly has been trying to run him out for years...[/quote]

Don't you mean the Rams after we make the trade?

Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

Wow... Had hoped to see a question mark rather than an exclamation in the post subject. It was awesome to catch this in time for Fox News' 'fan reaction' interviews. I believe the first comment was 'we have a great line, great receivers, and now a great quarterback.' Apparently they weren't a Washington fan. Clearly they were interviewing philly fans...

At any rate, things looked so promising as though Snyder really was stepping back. Now we get another has-been to come get some of that Snyder funded retirement cheese.

I hope like crazy they intend to build through the draft or surprise us with a high profile trade like this to address the real problem in the O line.
