Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

[quote=SBXVII;682879]How is it completely different? Both were old players. Both we gave up draft picks for. One didn't live up to his resume and went back to a team we gave draft picks for. I just hope it doesn't happen again.[/quote]

Taylor was playing out of position and in a scheme that didn't use him properly.

Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

If people are comparing JC to McNabb and saying JC is the better option at QB for the Skins, that is absolutly the stupidest thing I have ever read here period. There is no comparison what so ever, that is insane, I dont care what the stats say or what the Philly's scheme says....this was a major upgrade at QB

Thats not why I'm comparing JC. I'm not a fan of JC either. What I am comparing is the stats for those stat oriented people. JC's were not that much different then McNabb's and McNabb had a much better situation to work in. We should have just picked up Delhonme, I don't think we would have had to give up the 2nd round pick for a HOF, franchise type QB who knows how to get to the SB.

This is a major upgrade at QB (anything would be a major upgrade from JC) but I dont see DM lasting more that 2 yrs.

Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

[quote=diehard;682873]Right. Been there, done that... but, won't do much else. Any fan of a NFC East team knows McNabb choked when he had the chance to win the SB. PHI fans have even seen enough of what McNabb can do. Why love this move? [B]Why even bring up Zorn?[/B] Isn't Campbell better with Shanahan?[/quote]

I think what MattyK was trying to say was that the team looks a lot different in 2010.

2009 Redskins = Zorn+Campbell
2010 Redskins = Shanny+McNabb

And dont forget that he got hurt before he was really able to get going.

Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

Mike and Mike said that we offered up Haynesworth for McNabb. Did any one here of this?

Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

[quote=Mattyk;682872]Yeah the comparison to Jason Taylor doesn't make much sense. Two completely different situations.[/quote]

If we only get one good year out of McNabb, the comparison will be richer.

Bad idea there. He may have been less productive last year, but IMO every player and team gets 2 years to adjust to new players before being labeled a bust.

Yep, it's true. Too much money for any team to take on though.

Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

[quote=SBXVII;682877]I'm argueing that McNabb's not in his prime either. After two injury plagued yrs he's not the same QB.[/quote]

the injuries are a concern. that would be my only concern though.

Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!
 

[quote=Mattyk;682893]huh?[/quote]

I'm sorry, Delhomme. Better? now that I spelled it correctly. He was released by the Panthers, been to a couple SB's, is just as old, would not have had to give up a draft pick. Does he ring a bell now? We should have picked him up if we wanted a better QB then JC.

The Peter King article says this too.
