Wow...

Donovan McNabb traded?!?

We must admit we were surprised the Eagles decided to cut bait with Five. That's not to say we are against the trade. It's just that we felt Andy Reid would keep him around forever. But if his biggest booster felt the need to trade him, what does that tell us about McNabb?!? We never felt he was even close to a great QB. Pretty good, sure. But nothing more than that. He had/has a great arm. But as a pure passer he is mediocre. How many times have we been forced to watch him short hop a wide open receiver?!? And he may be a bright and well spoken guy, but as a football player, he is dumb as rocks. Thankfully, Eagles fans have seen the last of McNabb throwing a 3 yard pass on third and ten.

As for the ever dreaded trading a player within the division?!? If the Eagles can't beat the woeful Redskins with DMac behind center, they are in big trouble. The Sons of Daniel Snyder could put Peyton Manning out there and the Birds should still win easily.
