As for the whole TO thing. McNabb completed plenty of deep passes without him. As well as they won every playoff game that year that TO did not play in and lost the only one that TO did play in. Having bad WR's wasnt one of McNabbs problems. McNabbs problem was that if you took away the deep game and had LB's that could stop the screen game, The Eagles offense stalled due to the fact that it could only do three things, and Andy Reid was allergic to running the ball, so the Eagles offense only did two things. Reid schemed both into his plays. If McNabb found one or the other, good things happened. Otherwise, not so much. Pick your poison and McNabb posted great stats, able to stop both and McNabb became average at best.

At the risk of hi-jacking this thread (as if we hadnt already-lol), TO is also the only one that showed up in that superbowl. I agree with everything you are saying, i think were just looking at it through opposite sides of the glass. Its not really Mcnabbs fault that Reid was allergic to the running game or acquiring talent and or any sort of depth at the wr position for many of Mcnabbs years there. He leaned heavily on McNabbs mobility and arm strength for many years and it took him to the cusp of a few championships. Like any qb he was only as strong as the weapons around him. I personally think he put that teams offense on his back for several years and had a very impressive go at it.
Anyway - Go Skins.
