Carphalen is right according to what I just saw on NFL Network.

It's all speculation and reasoning now IMO. People are just trying to gun for excuses for why he wasn't claimed. There are two legit contenders right now with bigtime starting QB issues, and two (Cowboys included) with backup QB issues. The fact that nobody was willing to claim him speaks volumes to me when added to how he was canned from DC and Minny.

Hell...Minny is the only team that even wanted him in the offseason to begin with. It's clear that these teams would rather develop young talent and see what they have rather than bring McNabb in.

We are also talking about 2 weeks later in the season so teams are not as willing to pay that money for somebody who might not be up to speed until 2 weeks are left in the season.

Minny paid McNabb 7.5 million so its not like he signed for the veteran minimum, who cares if anybody else wanted him.

It is a bad thing, yes.

For years we've been spoon fed what a good leader McNabb is, and how he does things the right way.

But he can't get over his own ego and realize that the third team in less than a year realized he just didn't have it anymore. He still has this ego like he deserves to be a starter.

His past two teams have complained about his work ethic and his cardio-vascular endurance. Two teams that went out and sought McNabb, traded for him, and handed him a starting job quit on him in short order.

Well... the Vikings benched him and instead of wanting to continue to mentor a young QB in Ponder, he says "Fuck it. I deserve better. I'm out."

What the fuck is that all about?

I mean, lets just ignore the fact that all it takes is one hit to Ponder and McNabb could be needed.

McNabb selfishly see's two teams, Houston & Chicago (he's from Chicago) who are in playoff contention, and who have horrid QB situations, and he has total disregard for the team that he was on.

Fuck McNabb. He's a piece of shit. He always has been. He's a fraud. That whole "doing things the right way" was always just an act. He has always been passive aggressive, and used his agent to do his dirty work, all the while faigning innoncence and playing the golly shucks good guy to the media.

How many times did the Eagles have to make "financial apologies" to McNabb after he felt slighted? I can recall at least twice. Including one in Washington as well. Hell.... google "financial apology" and the 2nd selection that comes up is "McNabb financial apology" lol


I'm sorry, I know you're a McNabb mark, RTH... You were the guy scoffing at the notion he was washed up.

There isn't an NFL player I've despised more than McNabb, and it has nothing to do with the success he had against bad Cowboys teams early in his career. I've always thought he was a media-propped fraud who benefited greatly be being coached by Andy Reid when the NFC East and really, the NFC was mediocre for the vast majority of his career. Those Jim Johnson defenses get the credit for the Eagles success IMO. Not McNabb.

I mean, think about it... in the Super Bowl, with 7 minutes remaining and the game still within reach, the guy is so tired he can't even call plays in the huddle. The guy literally choked the game away. Yet you never hear anyone talk about that.

But Romo fumbles a snap on a field goal and it's all anyone ever talks about?

Laughable.

Fuck McNabb.

Damn. This is a beautiful post.

I'm gonna print it out and hang it on my fridge.

I like McGee and i think he has improved. Is he ready to play against the Niner front 7 in a playoff game? I don’t know. Hopefully Romo stays healthy and we don’t have to find out.

I don't know if McGee is ready for that either, but if Romo goes down we're screwed in the playoffs no matter who we put out there most likely so might as well let McGee see what he can do.

He's washed up, dude. Teams are desperate for a QB right now and nobody wants to touch McNabb with a ten foot pole. He wasn't even the Vikings first choice. They settled on him back in July. It's over for him.

I didn't say he wasn't. Back when he was with Washington last year i thought he still had some left.. but as of right now it doesn't look to be that way.
