Before that he turned McNabb into a regular pro-bowler, and then dumped him when production dropped off.
All of this seems like acceptable judgement by the head coach, and making the most of what he had. Over the years he also had several McNabb back-ups who excelled under Reid, and stepped in for some big time performances when McNabb was hurt. Those guys never did anything of note anywhere else.

A.J. Feely comes immediately to mind...
