McNabb reallly did not back his agents statements. When pressed on sensitive issues, McNabb does not an answer the question. He side-steps and the guys on the interview team talked about that.....habit of his. While he did say he supported his agent, he did not say he agreed with his comments.

I would hold on to Mcnabb until we receive a draft pick or had to pay his bonus. Who cares if Mcnabb not happy? If he would had played better we would be in the playoffs...nice dirty ball. I like when the media say he is so classy, but what they don't say is he was terrible this year.

Minny is the best fit for Mcnabb.

I wouldnt sleep on Seattle and San Fran. Whitehurst has been horrible and Hasslebeck is done. San Fran will be looking for a fresh face.

but is McNabb the best fit for Minny? I think that they'll be looking past the let's get a QB that can win us a SB mode this year.. Tavaris has shown flashes of being starter material and Joe Webb last night did a couple of things to make you say hmm

I'm still not sold on the idea DM is out of here.

I agree irish. I just have this feeling that he's gonna be here come game 1 next season

[skinsfaninok]

It won't be McNabb guys, this relationship is like AH and MS was.. He will be traded to Min or AZ for a 3rd. Rex will be the starter next season

not sure if you guys saw this Donovan McNabb, not Washington Redskins, should be setting exit agenda - ESPN

McNabb "deserves" to play for a Superbowl contender? Ummmm didnt he play for one for 10 years and couldn't get it done??

I am so sick of athletes signing huge contracts and then complaining about the terms of those contracts.

Donovan wanted the $ more than his playing future, it's that simple. He can't complain because he signed that extension. I'm not 100% sure winning a Super Bowl means that much to him honestly.

Yeah, this dude has more apologists than anyone. I don't get it? Why do people rush to his defense like he's the second coming. He's was a slightly above average qb when he was mobile, once that stopped, he has been a below average qb with horrible accuracy. All of those screen plays in Philly with Westbrook taking it for 10-15 yds really helped his completion percentage.

I used to kind of think the same way, but the last 4-5 yrs in Philly changed my mind w/ DM. He's never been the most accurate guy. He's a big, mobile, shifty QB, who can make big plays for your team if the offense is built around him. Think of the #'s he's put up for many years w/ no weapons aside from Westbrook.

Now you could make the argument that he's on the wrong side of 30 and he's not going to be able to rely on his mobility as he used to, making him an "average" qb. I still think he's got some good years given some playmakers and oline.

One thing you guys are forgetting is that everyone was saying that we where dumb for benching DM in the first place. That tells me people still think McNabb can play and I see a 3rd for him.

I'd take a 3rd for him in about .0001 seconds. Also those teams didnt see him in camp andevery practice like Shanny did.
