"I love Rush, but his comments about McNabb's ability showed his lack of football knowledge as much as his comment that Mike Martz had never taken the Rams to the Superbowl even though Martz did indeed take the Rams to the 2001 Super Bowl."

But as a point of clarification the 2001 Super Bowl featured Baltimore 34, N.Y. Giants 7

The Rams went in to SB XXXVI Feb. 3, 2002 New England 20, St. Louis 17

Point being is it is easy to mispeak.

But Rush analysis on McNabb is being proved by others as well as his analysis on Martz.

See:
On McNabb:
Slate's Allen Barra: Rush Is Right About McNabb http://slate.msn.com/id/2089193/

CBS SportsLine.com senior writer Pete Prisco back on Sept. 18: "McNabb is still a good player, despite his pedestrian numbers from the first two games. He's just not a great one. And that's why he earns the Most Overrated Player Award. "

On Martz:
