You can't compare the 2, Mcnabb is a border line HOF that been to multiple playoff games and to a SB.

What's Palmer done? O yea nothing. And he's had plenty of talent around him

There's no way McNabb's a borderline hall of famer, being that he's at the end of his career and doesn't qualify for the hall of fame by pretty much any criteria. Palmer is much closer to the middle of his career than McNabb is, and I think he's been better than McNabb going back to 2005. He certainly was this past season.

I can't speak as to the declining arm strength/skill sets of one or the other, and wouldn't expect Palmer to have another run quite like 2005-2007 here, but I'd expect him to look better than 2009-10 anywhere once he escapes Cincinnati. He's was that offenses' best player this year. I think Chad's the one who is most obviously in decline.

Carson Palmer is the patron saint of Quarterbacks. Thanks to his injury in the playoffs some odd years ago it's now practically illegal to touch the QB.

His career really did seem to change after that playoff injury.
