McNabb and George don't really compare in my mind. George had never done anything meaningful when we brought him in, McNabb on the other hand has a bevy of accomplishments/solid stats as an NFL starter.

Everyone likes to talk about Brandon Llyod, Arch Deluxe, Deion, Bruce Smith, etc when they talk about Snyder's big failures. I think the combination of bringing in George while simultaneously turning a cold shoulder to Brad Johnson was possibly the little man's biggest personnel fail. Johnson wasn't going to be a franchise man for a decade, but he could have stuck around for 3-5 more years for us and been very solid. Better than anything else we've had at QB during Danny's tenure.

Imagine if he stuck with Marty and Brad how much better we would have been.

We as fans look at those years from a win/loss prospective but I bet if you looked at those years and the buzz that was create with those teams from a dollar sign prospective they were winning seasons in Danny's eyes.
