I for one had reservations on the McNabb signing. I really didn't think it was going to take place and was shocked that it did. A healthy McNabb would have been a good signing but McNabb was still battling his rib issues if hit hard enough and knee issue's. Basically he couldn't run like he used to. That would force him to be a pocket passer which at the time I thought we needed someone more mobile for the roll outs.

When he got signed I held out hope that the team knew what it was doing and that they would work around McNabbs abilities or lack there of. They didn't. They wanted him to do what he did early on in his career and he just was not fast enough anymore. On top of that he obviously had trouble remembering the plays and then wouldn't wear the arm band and get embarrassed. Whatever. He's gone.

The media made fun of him today on the radio, he's talking about how RG3 won't be a good fit? Why cause you were not McNabb? and how he starts running off each QB who has failed at QB.... but fails to mention himself? WTF? lol.
