McNabb finally got his extension.

5 year $78 million (44? guaranteed).

Thank he can last that long? I am an Eagles fan and when he came to Washington all I could think was that the Skins have no O line and McNabb is going to be rushed and get his butt beat. AND, that is exactly what is happening this season. If they don't get him some protection and consistent receivers, he will just be a standard QB and not the Pro-bowler playoff caliber QB. What do you think?

Re: McNabb finally got his extension.

  • PS, it is a big day in the Emu house. The hubs is born and raised DC guy so Skins all the way and I am from South Jersey so an Eagles gan all the way. We have been having the debate whether or not the Skins would have won the last game if Vick hadn't of gotten hurt...I am glad we have 2 tvs, no watching together for this one!

  • As an Eaglse fan I've been kind of watching McNabb down in DC and listening to all his latest controversy. Soooooo here's my take...I think it's a bonehead move on the Redskins part McNabb is/was a great QB except he's hurt every other season, he's not throwing like he did when he was recruited to be with Eagles, let''s not even discuss accuracy, and obviously he can't scramble like he used to due to his injuries.

    For the Redskins I think that's a lot of money for a team that should invest their money in building a full team and not basing it around one player. Don't get me wrong thought I want McNabb to do well ( not too well against the Eagles of course) but as a football-business move I think it's foolish- McNabb is no Favre with his QB skills.

    On a side note- Have you always been an Eagles fan? You're profile says DC...I'm just curious! 

    GO BIRDS!!!!!!!! I think they need to resign Vick for about 5 seasons!

  • I'm a Skins fan and shocked after the coach pulled him in the last game.  I like McNabb and was hoping he would stick around for a few years to give the team time to settle down some.  Now can I replace the owner?

    YES! I think the last face off between McNabb and Vick was during an NFC title game and the Falcons won! Vick and Jackson are primo!

     E A G L E S!!!!!

  • Huge Eagles fan here, was not upset to see McNabb go, but to the skins, idiots!

    Why would you give a 5yr extension to a 33 year old player??  He will get hurt again & he is done. I think he is too much of a liability...

  • I had 2 questions asked and I wasn't on last night after I posted...sorry.

    Yes, I have always been an Eagles fan. I grew up in South Jersey so Philadelphia sports all the way. I went to school in Morgantown so I love my 'Eers and followed DH to DC where he is from. We agree to disagree about sports and I have learned to keep the gloating to a minimum after the last few seasons the Skins have had.

    DH stopped watching during the second quarter. He kept the game on, but muted it so he didn't have to hear what was going on and just looked at the score every once in a while. Poor thing.

  • I think the Skins will take the next 2-3 years to buy a team that is worth a damn and then draft a QB to learn from McNabb. While he has been plagued with injuries and playing like crap this year, I think if he wasn't hurried all the time because their O line is useless and he actually had receivers to catch a ball he would at least look like the same McNabb I am used to seeing. Oh well, only time will tell.

  • DH is a Skins fan, he could not believe it. I am not really sure what they were thing. I think the contract is too long. I do not think he will last that long.
