I know, I know, but at least McNabb can get out of the way of his own feet. Shipping Campbell had to happen. . .now McNabb can keep the seat warm but he knows he going to be replaced with the real answer (whoever that may be). Having to sit Campbell down or to send out feelers for other QB's just drove Campbell nuts, destroyed his confidence and created emotional havoc. McNabb comes in with about the same skill-set but has to know he's just there to fill the space. . it opens the door for whatever they want to do to finally resolve their QB issue. So, overall a positive move. Again, Shanny only has to show improvement this first year and, let's face it, the skins can only go up after two years of Zorn and 10 years of Synder-Serano mismanagement.
If I’m a Redskin fan, my worst nightmare is Danny signing McNabb to a ridiculous extension this week. If you get through the week without that happening, you might be okay. As a stopgap who keeps you in a playoff hunt, Donovan is fine. As long as you don’t expect anything more than that (like we did for 10 years), you won’t be disappointed.
