I think if Young can stay with Chow he is going to be just as good as McNabb.

Yes, this is a common phenemenon. Rookie to second year tends to be a big statistical jump in passing. I expect Young to become a league-competant passer this year.
Alex Smith's rookie season was catastrophically bad. He was one rare exception to my prior argument.
Young's probably going to be better than McNabb in his prime.
