Where do you stand on this? You never seem to offer an opinion just vague remarks.
Because generally I'm accused of being a McNabb hater, but I'll throw out my opinion.
In my opinion, Donovan McNabb is a quarterback on the downside of his career. He is still a good player, and can win in the right situation, but I do not see him aging gracefully, as he has had a pretty significant injury history.
Despite the excuses, McNabb has not had a good year. He is on pace for the most INTs in his career. His completion percentage in under 58%. Yes, the guy does not have talent around him, but then why is he going to be paid like the he's the same guy who was quite successful with Thrash and Pinkston.
Anyway you slice it, McNabb has been a below average to average quarterback this year. He also has issues with his coach. So you take his age, his wear and tear, the fact that he's not playing well, and the fact that the league might be locked out next year, so you have the distinct possibility of hoping a 36 year old McNabb can rebound from this, and I don't think that warrants and extension, moreover the fact he seems vastly overpaid in this issue. In my opinion this was Snyder's knee-jerk reaction to show he wasn't suckered by the Eagles.
