If the Vikings are Favre-less after this season, I would expect McNabb to head north. Why wouldn't he? I'd take that team over our current version of the Redskins any day.

Well, I think a lot of things need to happen for us to want him and him to want us. He's going to have to win early, and stay healthy, and convince BA that it's money well spent. And if he's having fun here, and things are working out, I can assure you that he'd much rather beat up on Philly for three seasons than go to Minnesota and play the role of Brad Childress futility watchdog.
But yeah, if things go the other way this season, and we underachieve, we probably won't show him the contractual love he's looking for, and he's got a fairly acceptable plan B elsewhere if he hits the market.
The fact that we haven't given him a Delhomme-type extension ($20 mil guaranteed) yet is slowly but surely placing my faith back in the front office. If he earns it on the field, I say: pay him.
