Oh yeah, I've heard all the stories about "Reid wanting to do right by McNabb". But the truth to the matter is McNabb adamantly stated he would not be traded to Buffalo or Oakland. The reason he was in the drivers seat on this one was he only had one year left on his current contract in Philly. And the acquiring team would need to renegotiate that in to an extension. All McNabb had to do if traded to Buffalo or Oakland, is not agree to terms, hence the trade would be nullified and he is back in Philly.

So McNabb did have a say in where he went.

And if he really was concerned about McNabb going to a division rival, he would have just not traded him at all.

Right, pretty much what I said above.

Reid had to trade him, he hand was forced by the front office. With one year left on his deal they weren't going to give him a new contract with Kolb behind him.

To say that Reid isn't concerned with playing against McNabb, especially paired with Shanahan, is just a little silly.
