I understan what your saying but you're only looking at the "sucessful" stories but what about the other ones? You know how many times teams will trade for a player even though there are reports of charcter flaws (pacman) or in this case a player not earning the trust or maybe even respect of his own offense and it doesn't work out like the few stories you mentioned? I bet you for every one Benson story there's a lot more that don't work out Hell you might find a few on our very own team so it's not like we've been so great at picking players lately especially since Hall and Haynsworth have been so worth the money!! All I'm saying is that if there's reports of this guy not being seen as a leader or a trustworthy person on his own offense we should probably look into it before we start giving out money. Just cause you look at a few stories like Benson's doesn't mean the odds of it happening for us are high I can understand how you'd think that if you ignore the many more when it doesn't work out. I don't expect or think that the odd of any QB to play like Probowlers at Favre and Warners age just cause they can do it how bout looking at the hundreds or thousands of NFL QBs that can't do it? I like Mcnabb but I just don't think he's our solution and the way we played this year I think we need some leadership and someone who has the trust of his offense. It just worries me a little bit when a QB has those kind of reports come out and I know they may not always be true but I don't think he's what we need. I doubt he'll come here anyways so I guess this whole post is just a waste
