With McNabb, I think it was just that he wasn't here long enough to gain any "longtime supporters." But you'll find plenty of people who believe they were similar and that the Redskins managed to screw up both situations with two different front offices.

The difference is that McNabb's value to the franchise was the highest on the day he was acquired, and just tanked from there at every opportunity. The selection of Jason Campbell in the first round in 2005 was pretty much universally viewed as an overdraft, but Campbell looked viable as a NFL starter until the day he was traded.
