AH, probably, but McNabb won't be doing much after this. He's a year older and more battered. His mobility is dropping off. Donovan McNabb was never the greatest pocket passer, so without his wheels, he's going to get lit up more and more.

Re: Brandon Lloyd NFL Receiving Yards Leader

Lloyd is on his 2nd team since leaving here, and his 8th season overall. I think in this case we can say his problems were his fault, and not the Redskins.

Maybe, but I don't understand why a guy would not want to showcase his talent if he has it. Could be coincidence but I wish we could pick up a guy who sucks and lights it up for us for a change. We have enough trouble motovating HOF type guys we acquire.

Who knows, but he had chances with the 49ers, Skins, and Bears covering 7 seasons before he put up a quality year. I think he's your classic underachiever who finally woke up before his career was over.

Yeah you got a point there, I can't argue with that.

and blamed his previous teams.. I think that we under-utilized him but there was nothing screaming breakout about him

Good one, but in 1997 with the Bills, he showed he could play. In fact I always believed if given the chance he could have been a great QB. But yeah he qualifies. So there's one.

Another former Redskin who gets his career on track and does good things. You know guys like Lloyd, Ryan Clark, Randle El, S. Suisham are laughing their butts off at us and rightly so.

I don't think so. Most of those guys except Ryan Clark were under producing turds when they were here.
Brandon Lloyd had a great season on a terrible team that was always behind and had to pass the ball a ton. They were a crazy pass happy offense.
Stats can be deceiving and do not tell the entire picture.
If Lloyd can follow it up with another good season and the Broncos have a WINNING season then I would say great! But I am not sold on him doing it year after year like the real deal WR's do until I see it in 2011.

I was laughing AT Suisham when he shanked that 43-yarder against Baltimore last week.

I could see him costing them a trip to the SB...or becoming Scott Norwood, Jr.
