What does he have to do with this?

This is Allen and Shanahan's show now.

What's funny is that Cutler (who lots of Redskins fans wanted) before he was traded to Chicago, signed a contract with the Bears for almost 1/2 the price.

10/20/2009: Signed a five-year, $49.77 million contract. The deal contains $20 million guaranteed, including a $7 million signing bonus, virtually all of Cutler's first-year salary, and $3.3 million of his 2010 base pay. Cutler can earn $500,000 workout bonuses in each year 2010-2013. 2009: $10.035 million (+ $100,000 workout bonus), 2010: $7.5 million, 2011: $8.1 million, 2012: $8.2 million, 2013: $8.9 million, 2014: Free Agent. Cap charge: $11.435 million (2009).

Who cares about this generation's Jeff George? Arm with no leadership. Donovan is worth twice as much for his huddle presence alone.

It's doubtful McNabb could have gotten a deal of this magnitude anywhere else in the league, certainly not in Philly.

It's because Cutler throws twice as many INTs as McNabb so his value is cut in half.

For the win

Regardless of the numbers this year, Donovan is not an average QB. He's a top 10 quarterback with top 5 leadership qualities operating in a new system behind a bottom 5 offensive line with a bottom 10 running back/wideout roster.

I apologize for the run on sentence, but i wanted you to read all of that at once, because that is the real reason we are struggling. And the only reason we are competitive this year is because of his leadership skills.

Is this a value laden deal for us, maybe not. But when was the last time you interviewed for a job that Bruce Allen was interviewing for?
