I am also a Skins fan and I regard McDrabb as maybe slightly above average. No one seems to take note that he has propered in the NFC East during its weakest moments. I have said it before and I’ll say it again - I cannot understand this rational that you just can’t criticize him. Hell, you can criticize all the other black QBs - Vick, McNair, Culpepper, Peete, Campbell, et al - and nobody raises a stink. But somehow it seems the NFL laid their money on this guy and people go berserk when he is criticized.
I agree with you. Why the media got hot and bothered by McNabb when they had McNair is a wonder to me. If a black QB thing is news, and with the media it seems to be, why pick McNabb over McNair? McNair produced in Tenn and Baltimore. He plays through injuries and continues to be successful. McNabb to me is something of cry baby, who always finds fault with others. BTW, the Philly success over the last six years was due to their killer defense rather than their offense. They had their shot at a Super Bowl and failed. That team does not exist anymore, someone should tell McNabb and the media. Did you notice that 8 out of 9 analyst on ESPN picked the Eagels to win. We were not more than 10 minutes into the game and the analyst were making excuses for Philly.
