    Donovan McNabb must have hypnotic powers of persuasion or something. Looking likely to be benched just last week he now has a brand new massive 5 years contract.
    Filed to ESPN: From the bench to the bank: #Redskins and Donovan McNabb have agreed to five year extension, worth 78 million, 40 guaranteed.

    Yeah...fired three interceptions last night.

    Stupidly overblown contract IMO.

    I am still shocked and disgusted the eagles got rid of their franchise qb. This will come back to bite them on their rear ends

    You should really put a smiley in there to show you are joking.

    Just in case you are not.

    Donovan McNabb Season QB rating 75.2
    Michael Vick Season QB rating 115.1
    Kevin Kolb Season QB rating 85.3

    I am definitely joking. I dont know the kind of coverage you guys get but espn and all other sports mediums crucified us. Starting from the in conference trade until the benching, not a week went by that we were not teased. They made mcnabb the second coming of christ. Now we look like geniuses.

    Vick was the greatest surprise. We are most fortunate to have him and they better resign him soon. But I would have been happy with Kolb. I still think he will be a very good qb in this league. Me and the rest of philly were prepared for a down year (7-9 or 8-8). A learning year for Kevin.

    The greatest thing is McNabb being in DC for % years! Not that they ever concerned me like the gmen or boys but this is too much. It also shows how little control Shanahan has over the team. This had to be Snyder. If the Cowboys showed us anything its what happens when an owner has to much control. Parcells built the team that carried them the last three years. They need a strong willed coach to shut jerry up. The cowboys should be the class of the nfc east. The eagles are young. This should be the boys year.
