Any thoughts?

Yes and no. I do agee with that to an extent, but look at Marino. He ruptured his achilles...so it can happen to anyone.
I also think that a good QB is made from a good line...so if you have a good line not only are you racking up numbers, but you're not being sacked often.

Show me a good qb and I'll show you a good or great line.

ps- No freakin way is McNabb a HOFer right now. Not even close.

they usually work hand in hand. the good qback using the time he has, and knowing when to get rid of the ball. good thought, jsarno

Thank you sir.
Hopefully our line can duplicate what they did last year for Campbell. If they do, we could see some really good things.
