The Vikes have a better offensive line than we've had for the past two/three seasons, and a running game that is much better the Eagles have ever had. A QB like McNabb was meant to go to a team with a lot of things in place, not a rebuilding team like ours. I don't think they'll be a playoff team b/c of the competition within the division, but there's a possibility that he might do better.

Vikes OL has fallen down quite a bit. Old Man Fav-rah was quite broken playing behind such a "good" OL.

Favre had the mobility of an oak tree and was completely worn down, so that was a different situation.

Yet, sadly he had enough mobility to run for that first down when we played Minny last year...

Your point?
McNabb is NOW less mobile than Jason Campbell and puts himself in 2nd and long and third and long situations. He'll get whacked plenty of times.

What the hell does Jason Campbell have to do with this? We're comparing McNabb's mobility to Favre's.

And Mcnabb's "faster than Favre" isn't that much faster. A couple years back in preseason, they were teeing off on McNabb but Vick got no pass rush. McNabb isn't going to be outrunning a lot of guys anymore. .
