Why can't we admit some obvious truths.
McNabb was traded following a solid pro-bowl season.
McNabb benching in Philly doesn't make equate to a poor season.

What got him treated that way was the fact that he didn't want to put in the additional work & study time to get better, didn't want to adjust to the offense, didn't want to accept coaching on his technique and footwork and was a locker room lawyer, trying to curry favor when the coaches started moving away from him.

If he didn't buck being coached and wasn't resistant to change, he would have been our 2011 starter.
Again, you can believe whatever you like.
Just because I choose not to believe hersey doesn't me that I think McNabb is without blame.
Clearly, McNabb deserves blame.
My point is the blame is also shared by Kyle and Mike.

It's not a negative brush, it's factual. True or false, in the 2 years prior to the trade, was he not benched and injured?

Nobody is saying Kyle and Mike are blameless. But two years later they aren't going on national tv whining about it like a fat girl jilted at the prom.

Shanahan's biggest failure was to trade for McNabb, but he seems to be on his way to remedy that. McNabb was a total failure as a QB after he left Philly and that is why he is unemployed.

Its obvious. If Shanny does not win with RG3 as the QB then Danny will get a coach who can win with RG3. Too much invested in RG3, he is now the franchise. For Shanny it is either win or be fired time. McNabb is betting Shanny fail and be fired. It is is opinion.

McNabb played himself right off the field. It's laughable that anyone is trying to defend him anymore.

Mcnabb sucked here he wasn't even better than rex and that's bad. He was washed up and shanny was desperate to start off w a proven QB. I will say if rg3 fails under Mike then he's just not then qb guru some say he is

Without Reid you have to wonder what kind of career DM might have had, or might not have had to put it specifically.

He had some talent let's not take his abilities away like his mobility and his great deep passing but he's not accurate and he always had that "o well" attitude it seemed like. In his prime he was pretty good but yes w out reid who knows

Ironic that McNabb would say "let it go"

it has to be what it is, he has to be doing this to deliberately get attention. i have a feeling his agent told him and maybe he is starting to realize that his playing days are truely over. and he doesn't want to just disappear so he is trying to be another terrible "anaylist" on the nfln. all i know is he is just making himself look like an ass. i mean j reid even laid into him a bit in that article he wrote, and j reid was the one that had his back the entire time he was here. i always find it odd when a players like mcnabb or e smith or rice just can't live a happy life outside of the lime light, they'd rather just annoy everyone with their awful "insight"

He's just jealous of the fact that with Tebow around theres no way he can pass off calling himself the most criticized QB of all time. It also hurts his ability to use the race card. Hopefully Tebow stays humble and doesn't become senile like McNabb.
