McNabb and Campbell is still an interesting comparison because both guys have been under imense pressure to perform over the last 3 years or so, and McNabb's results just don't seem to move with the talent he's been given. McNabb is actually having a worse year than Campbell, and remarkably is doing it with DeSean Jackson having the best year by a NFC East receiver since Moss '05. I don't really know why that's happening.
McNabb, however, is still winning because the Philadelphia defense has been excellent, and Oakland game aside, they've put away the teams they are supposed to beat in the first half. Philly also got two of their best three passing performances of the year when they went to Kevin Kolb.
People in the know seem to think that McNabb's on the hot seat as well. But there's no reason to think the Eagles won't keep winning because they're simply not built around their quarterback.
You could say that McNabb is the problem in Philly, but because they are winning, his Campbell-level play bothers no one. We could easily find our own Kevin Kolb in the draft, but it's not like he'd be successful here.

And McNabb has nothing to do with Philly being a consistent winner for the past 9 or 10 years. lol. No need to over analyze it. McNabb is a proven winner. He's not the most gifted passer but he makes plays and that's why he's been a top QB. Kolb had some good games this year and he might be a real good player. But McNabb has been doing it for years. Time will tell on Kolb. But there is no comparison with McNabb and JC.
