McNabb is a Redskin

[classicman]

Not the long ball - thats always been his strength. Reid tried to make McNabb run the West Coast offense with short, accurate passes requiring a lot of touch and precision. That was certainly not his strong suit.
Put into a system with wideouts that can fly and a coach that will run the offense to open those types of downfield plays will be a better fit for him.

He'll also be welcomed as the hero type savior by the skins players. That will give his fragile ego a much needed boost.

I don't know about that. He over/underthrew Jackson more than a few times this past season. Even the "miracle throw" to Maclin was really an overthrow to Avant.
