"See, that's the point: QBs do NOT get a pass in other cities. In Dallas, the fans rip Quincy Carter, despite a 10-6 season with a team figured to win 7 games. Jon Kitna in Cincy gets no love. But McNabbit was the second coming.

Agree. Even in Buffalo, Drew Bledsoe (who is much, much better than McNabb) had a terrible time in the press this past year. No mercy for any NFL QB, unless your name is Leon McQuitt.

Perhaps there is a lesson to be learned here. Football is a team game. Both McNair and Manning (and to a lesser extent McNabb and Favre) have this mentality at crunch time that they have to take the game into their own hands. Tom Brady and Delhome never strayed from their assigned roles as part of the greater team. McNair and Favre almost pulled it off. McNabb and Manning just ended up looking silly. Must be something in that Mississippi water...
