McNabb Wants To Go To the Vikings

[stilltheguru]

If one playoff win can make you a winner, what does 2,384 posts make you? Anyone?

uhhh what the hell are you talking about? And to the guy asking who said anything about Romo. I DID! If you call Mcnabb a loser that folds under pressure with his resume and you look at Romo and alot of other qbs in the league how can you say Mcnabb is a loser?

What is Romo? A winner?

Did not take you long to revert back to your Romo hating.

As you saw from my bet with a board member I am a man of my word. I am 100 percent on Romos side. I just don't see how Mcnabb is a loser/choker but Romo is not. I'm using their criteria, not mines. I think Romo is better than Mcnabb

This is an honest question, as I have no idea what the answer is:
What is McNabb's playoff record?
I would have assumed it's pretty good, but don't know for sure.

He's played 16 playoff games, and is 9-7... in that span, he's completed 341 of 577 passes (59.1%), for 3552 yards (222.0 yards per game, 6.16 yards per attempt), with 24 TDs and 17 ints... his team has averaged 20.9 points per game in those 16 games...

Comparing his regular season stats to his playoff stats:

Completion percentage-- 59.0 in the regular season, 59.1 in the playoffs... nearly identical...

Yards per attempt-- 6.90 in the regular season, 6.16 in the playoffs... that's a significant dropoff...

Quarterback rating-- 86.5 in the regular season, 78.6 in the playoffs... again, a dropoff...

Yards per game-- 222.1 in the regular season, 222.0 in the playoffs... once again, nearly identical...

So, it would appear that Donovan's play in the playoffs is a bit worse than his regular season performances were... of course, the difference may lie in the fact you don't play the Detroit Lions or the St. Louis Rams too often in the playoffs... all you face is good teams...

But all in all, a 9-7 playoff record with an 0-4 record in NFC title games is not impressive...

I could've sworn I saw him in a Super Bowl, but continue with the BS

If the Cowboys don't win a championship next year, I hope McNabb and the Vikings do. Just imagine for a moment... Philly fans seeing McNabb hoist a Lombardy wearing purple... It would be the biggest mass suicide in history.

He's won a lot in the NFL but ask yourself, if he was a Cowboy and made it to that many NFCC games and a SB and didn't win the big one, would you be happy with his career? If he played his entire carrer in Dallas he'd be Danny White times 10.

You were actually the first one to bring Romo into this thread. No one was talking about Romo at all and there were no comparisons being made.

You assume that the result would be the same if he were the Cowboys QB instead of the Eagles'. If he was the Cowboys' QB, he might have 2 or 3 rings. There's no way to tell. He certainly is and has been better than anything that wore a Cowboy jersey and lined up at QB since Aikman and until (perhaps) Romo. Dave Campo might still be the head coach.

OK, that was pushing it... :laugh2:

OK what in the hell are you talking about? I never said I wasn't the first person to bring up Romo. I just used his criteria for a "loser qb". A qb who has an above 500 playoff record is a loser. So I just used a little common sense and BINGO, I realised Romos record is below .500


Do you not understand that sir?

You said in the post that I quoted, "I just don't see how Mcnabb is a loser/choker but Romo is not. I'm using their criteria, not mines. I think Romo is better than Mcnabb"

Who's criteria? My point is that no one was making any comparisons between the two quarterbacks. No one wanted the argument and it was a McFlabb-focused discussion. You were the one that brought Romo into the discussion and started making comparisons. There was no "criteria" until you started using it.

We have alot of Bubba/tr1's on this site. That's for sure

Included in that group is yourself when it comes to many topics on these forums.


On this one, however, I'll agree with you that there isn't a real way people can look at McNabb as a loser, or a complete failure. The guy has accomplished quite a bit in his career. He's like the Eagles version of Danny White only even more accomplished cause McNabb actually made it to a Superbowl while the starting QB.


But the others are right as well. No one was even comparing any QBs here until you came along and did so either to just have an argument or you were dying to take a dig at Romo, since you're supposedly on his side 100% now with your bet, and it was just killing you needing your Romo bashing fix.
