Breaking News: McNabb gets huge deal

[TheSportsBaron]

Just saw that McNabb got a huge extension, worth a max of 88 million over 5 years.

Kinda odd, thought the Skins would be done with him after this year.

Discuss.

[D3 Mighty Ducks]

Wow I can't believe it one bit Theres nothing to discuss I'm confused over this deal.

[Landscaper]

Ya just heard on radio also...Dont understand this other than Washington loves giving out bad contracts

[D3 Mighty Ducks]

The Redskins just love to throw away money and this is just another reason why the NFL and all leagues should have a salary cap.

[Pasadena69ers]

Well I guess take the Skins to the bank

The NFL does have a salary cap.

[tad0matic]

from the bench to tha bank in a week!

[shaunovery]

How one week you bench him with 2mins to go against Detroit and the nxt he's on more money than Brady I don't get it

[D3 Mighty Ducks]

Could of fooled me.

[ChileCheese]

Anyone have stats on what happened last time McNabb received an extension in the middle of the year?

[Austin103]

McNabb, Skins agree on five year deal, worth 78 mil

What the ****..

[ryanjep]

wow big deal

[Pasadena69ers]

This is what they called the Qb/Headcoach controversy in order to lure gamblers.... how ironic it happens at the end of the game before their bye week before they play the Eagles again....

[ngates815]

That is nothing short of ridiculous.


I can't imagine him having 5 GOOD seasons left, especially at the price tag of 15.5 per year.

[d2bets]

What in the world???

Shocked they would extend him at all, let alone 5 years for a 34-year old. Totally stupified on this one.

[EaglesPhan36]

More great investing from Daniel Snyder.

[zjohnzzz]

i dont get it neither

[chaseutleyfan26]

this is really confusing? i guess its a make up for what happened last week

[jjgold]

[falconticket]

He will probably show us tonight why he's worth 40 mil.

[D3 Mighty Ducks]

this is really confusing? i guess its a make up for what happened last week

I highly doubt this is the reason. But if someone apologized to me by throwing me 78 million dollars then I wouldn't complain either.

McNabb is done and he won't win a championship within the next 5 years!

[moses millsap]

what the f is going on in washington?

[frostno98]

Looks Washington will get at least one Superbowl appearance within the next five. It took Shanny three years to get Elway back the Superbowl, and the same can happen here.

[your pixel army]

Dan Synder is making Al Davis look tame.

[DaProfessor23]

great news. now redskins wont be revelant for atleast a few more years. easier road for the giants

[stealthyburrito]

too old for too long a contract, i was hopin they could squeeze 3 good years out of him.

but 5? i dunno.

[N.O.S.]

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!! Are they stupid or something? How old is he?
DUMBSKINS

[Metalhead]

If McNabb is getting over 15.5 a year, what will Mannings new contract be?

[rake922]

The deal, which locks in McNabb until 2015, includes $40 million guaranteed and could be worth up to a maximum of $88 million, including $10 million in incentives. The deal averages $15.5 million per season, according to the source

[Afrot69]

mcnabb cashed in big time. cluless on the extension though.

[thebestthereis]

they just invented a mini oxygen tank for helmets, i can understand the deal.

to me this scream EAGLES EAGES EAGLES TONIGHT.

MCNABB BETTER BE PERFECT FOR FANS NOT TO START TO BOO.

[MJFtheGenius]

seems like a good steal for the skins

[gryfyn1]

My guess is this is not "really" a 5 year deal, but a 3 year deal with two dummy years at the end --- Skins will wind up paying him like 45 mil over 3 years maube even less as some gaurenteed money may not even be gaurenteed.-- Which almost makes sense in the fact that give Shannahan this draft and next to find a QB he likes and give him a year or two on the bench.

[csm506]

I too thought they would be done with him, and he would go to Arizona where he lives. hmmm
