Fired from ESPN and then not a few weeks afterwards, brought up on drug charges...Oxycontin remember?
...and you may want to check but he is one of the FEW high caliber QBs playing right now that gets more done with less to work with unlike uuuhhh...the Colts and Patriots?
Gosh, just imagine if T.O. didn't have such a primadonna persona what Philly could have accomplished.
Hell, dare I say, McNabb thus far is one of the ONLY reasons why the Eagles are on the map right now. Since he was drafted how many winning seasons has Philly had?
And ummm what about the NUMBER ONE PICK, Tim Couch? Where is he now?
And if memory serves Philly BOOED the decision (like they tend to boo most things) to draft McNabb.
Who was the last big name QB that Philly had before McNabb?
Randall Cunningham.
So, no...I would have to say Limbaugh was and still is very wrong about McNabb and Black QBs in general.

Actually, you're kind of wrong in most of your analysis here, and none of it has anything to do with Limbaugh's statements (not to derail with football talk while the wounds are open).
Think about this: why do advanced metrics always have the Philly offense as better "on paper" than they are on the score sheet? Why do they have a disproportionate amount of their yards happen between the 20s?
