He's always been a drama queen.
Bwack...bwack...bwack. Mcchicken's fine tenderness strikes again. Scared of Tyler Thigpen. Boohoo.

Re: Redskins and Vikings agree on McNabb trade (updated: deal is done)
For all the crap I've (deservedly) given the Redskins front office since last April 4 about falling into the franchise QB trap, this was a little bit of Wizardry by the Redskins.

Also consider that the last three players in franchise history that brought back draft picks in a trade: Donovan McNabb, Jason Campbell, Patrick Ramsey. If you're aloof enough, this probably tells you we're doing a lot better at the QB position building depth relative to other positions.

Now the Vikings will get to learn what the Eagles and Skins already know. Thanks for a little compensation.

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.

If the Bears' offensive line doesn't hold up, they could be in the running for last place. For the Vikes it will depend on how well their defense and APs running game carries them. But yeah, the Packers and the Lions are going to be at the top. I know it's been said for years, but I really hope this is the year of the Lions, of course this will all depend on Stafford's health.

Or at least devour Rodgers and Cutler in the process. McNabb isn't tasty enough, so they'll leave him to the vultures.
