McNabb or McFlabb?


As the NFL Free Agent singing period getting closer, there are many rumors going around. One of those rumors say that the Philadelphia Eagles have long time quarterback Donovan McNabb on the trading block. While there are a lot of Eagles fans who think his run is done, there are aslo a lot of people who appricate the accomplishments that McNabb has had with the Eagles and would like him to stick around for a few more years.

Since my team (Green Bay Packers) are just a couple of years removed from a simular situation, my opinion is that it is about time that the Eagles part ways with good ol #5. I do think that he is a good quarterback yet, but I feel Donovan is stuck in what I would call "bad habits in big games" and maybe the best thing for both the Eagles and McNabb is for them to split up.

One main thing that bothers me about McNabbs play as of late is that there are times he doesn't seem to take the game as serious as he should. Take the 2009 NFC Wildcard game against the Dallas Cowboys, when he walke out of the tunnel at Cowboys Stadium doing the air guitar dance and beating on the plexi glass wall. What was that about?! Don't for get about the overtime game against the lowly Bengals when he "forgot" the overtime rules and the fact that 1. he didn't try his hardest and 2. he didn't seem to be bothered or concerned that he didn't know the rules, like he didn't even give a damn.

It also seems that ever since Jason spoke of this on the show it seems that every other pass McNabb throws it fall in the dirt way short of his intended target. And like I said out of the 6 Pro Bowls that he has played in he has only been elected to two of them.

Although this may seem like a rant on how I think McNabb is crappy. Untrue, I think that he has always been and still is a very good quarterback. I just think that if McNabb goes to a teams like the Rams, Vikings (if Favre retires), Bills, or even the Raiders, his habits that he in known for, would be better for those teams than the alternative of not having a quarterback of his calibur, than if he performed the same way with the Eagles. McNabb has reached long past his peak in Philly, but hey you never know, he could be like Favre and with a fresh scenery have one of the better years for his career. Plus the Eagles know that they can still with a still learing Kevin Kolb. That is why I think the Eagles should cut the McFlabb and trade McNabb
