A 5-year, $78MM extension for McNabb with $40MM guaranteed?! Unbelievable.

As I said in the other thread, that's a lot for a QB who isn't your best QB in your 2 minute drill.

ha, beat me to it. Yeah $40mil guarateed for someone who doesn't know the 2-minute offense and is not in cardiovascular shape. This makes no sense to me.

BWAAAAHAHAHA...the redskin joke of ownership continues.

As a Cowboys fan, I approve of this contract!

I thought McNabb would be on the Vikings next year.

I rushed off to texags as soon as I saw that. What the heck is going on in Washington? Did Donovan guilt-trip them into a contract extension?

He's too old for that kind of contract anyway, let alone 10 days after you benched him with conflicting excuses in favor of Rex effing Grossman.

Dumb move by the Redskins. How are McNabb and Shanny going to coexist? Which one gets sent packing first? I guess if history is any indicator then Shanny will be gone within a year or two and McNabb will still be the QB when his contract expires, at which point I assume he'll be really bad.

Can't wait to see 5 more years of that out of shape grampa skipping 7 yard passes in the flat to wide open receivers, mixed in with a biweekly 11 yard scramble for a first down which prompts some announcer to talk about the "great Donovan McNabb."

Holy sh**, that is the dumbest move I've seen since...well the Haynesworth signing.

Holy ess, 40 mil guaranteed. Only Daniel Snyder could be so stupid.

schefter is reporting this deal has been on the table since October. McNabb decided today to accept it.

McNabbs age is reason enough to be startled by this deal..

but what makes this deal especially ludicrous is the labor uncertainty ahead. there are now more and more people 'in the know' who are starting to feel pretty strong about an upcoming lockout.

maybe theres a clause in the contract that voids it out if there's a lockout?

but the other teams in the NFC East are overjoyed

If that's true, McNabb is dumber than I thought for not jumping on that.

What MSC said. If true, he's an order of magnitude dumber than I ever would have thought. As if anyone but Daniel Snyder would give a past-his-prime 33 year old $40 MILLION GUARANTEED.

tom brady just signed an extension giving him 48 mil guaranteed. is mcnabb 5/6 as good as brady?

no.

will mcnabb be 5/6 as good as brady in the next coming years.

hell no.

good job washington. you continue to be a laughing stock, even as these other former laughing stocks are finally getting it together and actually seeming respectable.

Just when I think that Dallas is the laughing stock of the NFC East if not the entire NFL Washington does something like this. Thanks Redskins

Actually its not really $40 million guaranteed. IF they cut him this year, they are only on the hook for $3.75 million. If they keep him, and pay him his $10 million bonus, then it triggers the rest of the deal. Chances are he wont be a Redskin next year.

So they gave him an extension to light a fire under his ass? How pathetic.

I read only 3.5 million is guaranteed..

I guess my link doesn't work. I thought I did that right.

It's on ESPN, they reported 3.75, but then again, they did report that it was 40 yesterday. So who really knows.

I see this as their backup plan if they don't like whats available in the draft/FA or through a trade. They are basically paying him almost $4 million for a right of first refusal.

alright, that's not quite as bad, assuming they don't pay him the $10 mil bonus.
