and Slotdirt is right as well. McNabb is the best player to ever put an Eagles jersey on his back. He worked with absolutely no running game for most of his career. I'd love to have seen what other quarterbacks would've done with his pop warner receivers, for again, the majority of his career. He's certainly revered by me, and I will root for him and the Skins in every game not versus or at PHI. and Uncly....SHawn Andrews?!?!??!? hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha |

Funny to see Synder throw money around. It hasnt bought him a Super Bowl win. If im correct it hasnt bought him a playoff win also. At least Steinbrenner has World Series wins to show for his spending.

Best career? Mcnabb in a walk. Look at the success individually and the team success over the last decade. Best Football player? White changed the game and is one of the best d lineman ever. Mcnabb will never be mentioned as one of the best Qb's ever. |

The statements made were that McNabb was the best player to ever wear an Eagles uniform. Reggie White was arguably the best player to ever wear a football uniform period and inarguably is in the top 5. Please tell me how Whites 8 year Eagle career was worse than McNabbs. |
Cannon, remind me of all the great playoff successes Reggie White's teams had in his Eagles glory years?

Its not like we made it to the promise land with the other guy we are talking about either. Though Van Brocklin and Bednarik won a championship or two :p |
I just can't compare NFL championships to the Super Bowl era. First, because there were only like eight teams then and second, because the Lions, Browns, and Cardinals all won multiple NFL championships in that era. That pretty much invalidates anything that anybody ever did prior to the Super Bowl.
I also don't think many folks would say Reggie White was a top five player of all time either, but that is neither here nor there. Lawrence Taylor was a better defensive player in the same era, for starters. That's not even getting over to the offensive side. |

Your point is well taken though. Those eagles teams were about defense from the coach on down with Randall being the only face of the offense. |

Did RW have any control over the teams coaching decisions? Or offense? or Special teams? Or strength of other teams in the conference/division? Why does DM get credit for playing during an era where Dallas went 14 seasons without a playoff win? Or For Jim Johnsons defenses? Or the advantage of not being coached by Buddy Ryan? For 8 years RW was the best player at his position in the NFL, let alone the Eagles. In 10 years McNabb has never been the best player at his position. Reggie White missed 1 game in 8 years and never had anything but a great year. McNabb has missed quite a few games and has had a whole lot of bad games. Reggie Whites career with the Eagles was a huge success from day one till the day he left for GB. Can you say the same about McNabb? Did one time during White's 8 years did you ever say "Boy we could do better if we replaced White with......"? That seemingly happened every week with McNabb. |

Inarguably top 5 EVER? Hmmmm... Joe Montana Bart Starr Johnny Unitas Dan Marino Walter Payton Dick Butkus Lawrence Taylor Peyton Manning Ray Nitschke Sammy Baugh Joe Greene Deacon Jones Deion Sanders Jerry Rice Kellen Winslow Sure he is in that mix. But you COULD argue whether or not he is in the top five. I know what you mean though. |
