I know I was all giddy for McNabb this offseason that the hard drives hosting this forum want the space back.

HOWEVER, all that optimism was that we were finally going to get a running game and thus make McNabb more useful without having him to throw 30+ times every stinking time to win games. He CANNOT carry the O by himself and do something like lead the team down the field by converting short pass after short pass like many of the truly elite QBs and to-be great-to-elite QBs can.

He's not a complete QB anymore, and it's arguable he never was because of his poor performance in the short passing game when guys like Brian Westbrook are not helping him out. I'm not absolutely disgusted with his play, but his play has been very underwhelming.
