I'll still go back and say if you have a franchise QB worth their weight in gold you don't trade them. You trade your second string QB for other players needed or draft picks. Instead it speaks volumes that they traded McNabb (a franchise QB) and are going to start a QB that has played 2 games. Either McNabb pissed off the team somehow (which I doubt happened) or the Eagles are going with youth (which worries me). The latter is what I'd like to see the Skins do but instead we picked up McNabb.

He's definitly a HOF for what he has done, but I just don't think the Eagles would give up a franchise QB if he was still a franchise QB or to a division rival.
