So McNabb to Washington...

Then I hope you think Favre is overrated too

Not as overrated... You don't eclipse every passing record in the game by being completely overrated. I don't think he's the GOAT, but he's easily in the conversation as a top-10 all-time. Favre has had MANY exceptional seasons... McNabb has had one really good season (2004) and many average to above average seasons. The talent around them is comparable, but their abilities are miles apart...

when i heard trade talk with McNabb, i immediately thought Washington. It made a lot of sense for them to make this move, not so much for the Eagles though. McNabb is gonna get sweet revenge twice a year.

I'm a Schaub guy, but who are you takin him over right now?

It would be easier to list the guys I would take over him than who I'm taking him over. Guys I think are better than Schaub...without a whole lot of thought...are: Peyton, Brees, Brady, Rivers, and Rodgers. That's about it. Sure, there are guys like Big Ben who have had more success but give me a break, in that race Schaub was driving a Ford Fiesta while Big Ben was sporting a Lambo. When Schaub stays healthy, like he did this last season, he's a monster.

Yeah a healthy Schaub has proven he is valuable. AJ helps that too

Of course, so does Owen Daniels when he's healthy. Peyton has enjoyed Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne for the majority of his career...oh yeah, he has Dallas Clark, too. Most great QBs have good or great WRs. I can't hold that against him.

Andre Johnson might be the 2nd best WR in the NFL(Fitz #1)....he is that good.
I think Schaub is very good, just not quite as good as Bigs thinks/hopes. I think he is pretty close though, Bigs isn't overrating him by much.

Schaub has better WR than Big Ben, he's not better than Big Ben

The only thing Big Ben does better than Schaub is scramble out of the pocket...and field the occasional rape accusation. Ben is a good QB that benefitted from a great team and a great system...especially while Cowher was there. If he had been playing for the Texans during those years what would people think of him??? Be honest.

Wow Desean Jackson's kind of a bitch, it was time for a change? have fun missing the playoffs for the next 3-5 years.

It was time for a change and I highly doubt throwing Kolb in for McNabb at this point will cause them to miss the playoffs for the next 5 years. Kid has plenty of talent and will have Jackson, Maclin, Celek, etc at his disposal. They will be fine and they weren't going to win a Super Bowl with McNabb. It was time to end that relationship

What's he supposed to say? The team made the decision and he's getting on board. Anyway, I'm sure some of the guys in the locker room were rooting for Kolb to take over. The kid's a stud I'm telling you.

IDK seems like an awful lot of disrespect for a QB who lead his team to 5 NFC Championship games. And this is a kid who had a solid season this year, but hasn't doen anything remotely close to D Nabb yet. He shouldn't throw a player under the bus like that. And guys, there's been countless QB's who've come in and had a couple good games or some good stats in releif roles, but when they become starters all of a sudden aren't quite as good. My prediction, Wash. makes the playoffs next season, Philly misses at least the next 3 seasons.
