Bucky Brooks, once the NFL's best WR (ok that's not remotely true, but it sounded good), ranks the top NFL QB's for NFL.com, and he has Donovan McNabb third.
After Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, he says this about the Eagles signal caller:
"The inclusion of McNabb on this list is sure to draw the ire of some in the City of Brotherly Love, but the five-time Pro Bowler is praiseworthy based on his tremendous accomplishments. The 10-year veteran has amassed a lofty .645 winning percentage as a starter and has guided the Eagles to five NFC Championship Game appearances in the past eight seasons. Although those accomplishments speak to his ability to lead the team, McNabb remains one of the league's top passers. As one of only six quarterbacks in league history with over 25,000 passing yards and 3,000 rushing yards, McNabb is one of the top dual threats to ever play the game. Coming off a season where he posted career-highs in completions (345) and passing yards (3,916), McNabb's game is still on the rise."
I really don't want to get into this argument right this second as I am planning on digging deeper later in the week. But, when you step back and look at Donovan's career, it's tough to say that you wouldn't want to go to battle with this guy. He's still playing at a high level and talk of his demise is beyond premature.
