Sooooo Washington just gave 35 year old McNabb a 5 year extension with $40 mil guaranteed.

LOL

That was not a typo.

Actually it was... He's 33 and won't be 34 til the end of the month. Bazinga

ESPN was saying that Washington will probably have a walk away clause in the contract to allow them to drop Donovan before the majority of the guaranteed money part hits. Did not make sense to me, but they said it will likely be guaranteed if the team picks up the option

I'd also wager a large sum of money that he doesn't play for 5 years. This just appears to be a way to show that they're confident in him as their QB. Like it or not, there aren't any other options right now, nor is there a young guy backing him up. If they want to make the playoffs this year, its going to take a fully-confident, organization-backed, McNabb (and a miracle lol) so this was a good time to re-illustrate that confidence. He'll probably shift towards more of a mentorship role if we ever draft a young QB in the next few years (albeit a very expensive mentor).

obviously, years mean next to nothing in an nfl contract

Right, but a lot of people are freaking out saying that they shouldn't have signed him for that long, I was just agreeing with you

How bout that for a first quarter

[jsence2]

I have Vick, Maclin, and Philly's defense on my fantasy team. I needed 120 points to come back and win. He has Santana Moss.

Vick already has me 69 points

The fuck kind of league are you in that you can get 69 points already?

Custom league my old HS teacher runs. QBs get PPC and get bonus points when they reach 350 and 400 yds passing.

TD's are also worth 10 points, INTs are -5

It's a QB-dominated league. Scores are usually between 250-350 points.

[DRiccio21]

aparently the McNabb deal is not that impactful at all. if they cut him after this season they only owe him like 4 mil from the signing bonus and an incentive for finishing this year.

[packsyD22]

The Eagles look like the best team in the NFL. Defense is shaky at times.......but Asante will show up in the playoffs.

Vick looks like he has only gotten better since he was in Atlanta. Its like a track meet out there with him Jackson, and McCoy.

Don't forget Maclin either!

Wow ... you tell 'em Mora!!

"To me, this is high treason. An NFL football player does not turn down a play like that. And if I'm Jason Garrett, the first thing that I'm doing when I take over as the head coach of this team, is I'm getting guys like that -- number 21, who absolutely committed treason, let his team down by passing up a tackle and let the ball get in the end zone -- I'm taking him and I'm getting him out of my locker room."
--Former Falcons and Seahawks coach Jim Mora, on NFL Network, after watching Dallas cornerback Mike Jenkins back off a tackle against Green Bay's James Jones eight days ago.

weird that they put the Browns part 1 with the Browns part 2 and not Browns 1 with the Ravens. Yet once Tennessee moved, they still get the oilers stats and not given to the team from Houston now

Presumably because they became a second franchise unlike the Rams, Oilers, and Cardinals.
