His decline was apparent to anyone paying attention much earlier than this. In fact, I remember listening to Trent Dilfer on Colin Cowherd's show talking about McNabb having his worst season as a pro. That was before the benching in Detroit. We were never going to cash in on a bucket full of draft picks thanks to McNabb's performance this year, folks.

I think that had his name been anything but Donovan McNabb he'd have been benched a long time ago.
