gortiz Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I dont know about this. This just does not feel right. The Eagles are a very smart and organized team. I really hope we didnt get screwed on this. just looking through all these posts ... i was pretty dumb to the fact that the eagles rarely make big mistakes on player moves like this and I also totally forgot about how the let go of trotter, we scoop him up, he sucks, goes back to philly and makes the pro bowl. fml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABSTRACT Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 just looking through all these posts ... i was pretty dumb to the fact that the eagles rarely make big mistakes on player moves like this and I also totally forgot about how the let go of trotter, we scoop him up, he sucks, goes back to philly and makes the pro bowl. fml Philly, Just like NE, has a system.... Kind of like how Branch goes to Seattle and blah....but goes back to NE and is elite. We are continuing to build a system right now. Hopefully the popcorn society in DC allows it to happen.

WhoRUSupposed2Be Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Something tells me that we'll end up keeping McNabb if there's a CBA. No matter what anyone says, who wants to be made "a fool of" by the Fat Walrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter what anyone says, who wants to be made "a fool of" by the Fat Walrus I don't know about that. I think that Shanahan came out and said that a good coach doesn't stick with a mistake, just to try and prove he didn't make a mistake, for a reason.

That is the only thing that I like about this whole situation. I have a little respect for that. Can only imagine what that 2nd round pick could have been for this team. Outside of that - just another scar on the redskins organization. Dust off and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Fried Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 And so began my conspiracy theories that McNabb was part of a package to move up to get Sam Bradford. Those were the days of happiness.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlayAction Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 A conspiracy that TK confirmed. That was originally the plan, if I remember correctly. I can't believe the Skins head office would be that stupid. If you can trade McNabb + picks to get Bradford then you could have easily traded the 2nd and 4th picks it cost to get McNabb + whatever else directly for Bradford. The Rams could have used the 2nd and 4th from Skins to get McNabb directly if they so chose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rams could have used the 2nd and 4th from Skins to get McNabb directly if they so chose. TK alluded that it was originally going to be a 3-way deal. It didn't happen. That's all I know. We then decided we wanted McNabb anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We then decided we wanted McNabb anyways. That's my recollection too. Kind of helps explain why Shanny is ready to get rid of him already too. Wasn't plan A.

MONTEY Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Probably my happiest day of Redskins news in 2010 Remember heading home from work and ESPN saying McNabb to our Skins. Very first thing that popped into my head was finally leadership on the QB position. Stability on the offense. I was ecstatic. So damn disappointment for it to end like this. Bad karma rules this organization. Wonder what our Skins did to piss off the football Gods man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeeb Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Thought it was stupid at the time, then the team made offensive tackle upgrades and won a few games to get my hopes up. well so much for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitmandm Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Ahh this thread. I remember getting yelled at when I said McNabb was a stiff QB and that this was a horrible trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
