I would feel like thay had wasted a lot of opportunities. I think that McNabb was overrated but now most people see him for what he is: A\a good athlete with play-making ability whose passing accuracy and decision making run hot and cold.

Decision-making runs cold???

The guy has NEVER thrown more than 13 INTs in a season. His career TD to INT ratio is more than 2 to 1. Last year in 10 games, he had only 6 INTs. His QB rating was 95. Even in 2005, when the Eagles were horrible, he had 9 INTs in nine games before shutting it down with the hernia.

Granted, he has days where everything he throws is low. But decision-making? He's one of the best ball-control QBs in the entire NFL.

McNabb never seems to get the credit he deserves for some reason.

I don't know. I remember watching the Championship game against Carolina and his throws were high, low, wide, late, early but all the announcers could do was blame James Thrash who was doing everything he could to try and bring these unpredictable passes in. Have you ever seen a second baseman handcuffed by the flip from Short? That was Thrash in Philly. I don't think McNabb has ever suffered from too much criticism except once and that guy got fired.

i guess it is because he has never won the big one even though he is easily in the top 5 at quarterback when he is healthy
