Lombardi was one of those fools who in 2010 said McNabb was an elite QB along with Matt Schaub.
I remember this because he was saying the 49ers could sign him and be a threat.
Unsurprisingly McNabb was a flop.
Reid knew McNabb was a fat lazy front-runner.
He was a captain checkdown to his backs. Still had a hard time completing 60%.
The 1 great year involved a lot of chuck it to TO. He never learned the details of QB.
He always took too many sacks and hits. His legs went and without his running went from an OK QB to getting benched.
His QB rating went down and down as the playoff rounds went on.
In the 9 Playoffs games the Eagles won with him...
The opponents average score was 11.4
