Donovan McNabb

Who is Donovan McNabb and how good a QB is he? Here we go:

Donovan McNabb:
Became the first player in NFL history to throw more than 30 touchdown passes in a season (31) and fewer than 10 interceptions (8)
Set the NFL record for consecutive completed passes with 24, breaking the previous record of 22 held by Joe Montana
Became fifth player in league history to throw five touchdown passes in one half (vs. Green Bay)
3,875 passing yards this season, a new franchise record
464 passing yards vs. Green Bay, a team record
Completed 64 percent of his passes this season, a franchise record
Had a quarterback rating of 104.7, a franchise record

You forgot to add 1-4 in Super bowls/Conference title games

How many come from behind wins does McNabb have?

That fact is that McNabb's defense has taken the pressure off him. When the defense shuts down another team and Philly goes up 2 scores the games over. McNAbb can smile and play relaxed and look look a Hall of Famer.

One come from behind win in the playoffs (green Bay) and maybe a hand full in the regular season.

Without that defense he would be nothing.

Mcnabb is about 4th best QB in NFC, maybe lower than that.

I think that he is a good QB.

I hate to say it, but he sold out in the Big Game.

The Eagles are my team, I was crushed when they lost.

Sorry SB, I had to say it.

Viking611 makes an interesting comment. Note: I am an Eagles fan so I know I cannot be completely biased.

What quarterback(s) in the NFL would you rather have than Donovan McNabb (full season, not 1 game).

Given:
Tom Brady (no on else even needs to mention him)

I cannot think of any one else I would rather have.

Similar Class:
* Paytom Manning

Just Below (could eventually overtake)
* Culpepper
* Pennignton
* Vick
* Delhome
* Green

Works in Progress:
* Carr
* Hasselbeck
* Leftwich
* Rothlesbeerger

May have been better at one time, but not now:
* Farve
* Bledsoe
* McNair
