Free Agent QB Donovan McNabb Thought Bears Would Sign Him

Donovan McNabb admitted Friday that he was expecting a call from the Chicago Bears after Jay Cutler went down with a fractured thumb on Nov. 20, but that call never came and the Bears lost five of their last six to miss the playoffs according to ESPNChicago. The Bears did put in a claim on Kyle Orton after he was released by the Denver Broncos, but the Kansas City Chiefs claimed Orton before he was available to the Bears. Meanwhile McNabb, a Chicago native who was released by the Minnesota Vikings on Dec. 1, watched Caleb Hanie lose four consecutive games for the Bears, who then turned to Josh McCown in losing their fifth straight. The Bears closed out the season with a win over the Vikes. "I thought the Bears would call," McNabb said on "The Waddle & Silvy Show" on ESPN 1000. "So many people continuously talked about the Mike Martz offense and things of that nature. I personally didn't care about that. If you want to win and win now, you go out and get a better quarterback and you cater your offense to his strengths, and obviously the strengths of your team. "Obviously it didn't work out well for them. It's unfortunate. I wish things would have worked out, but it didn't. We will see what happens from now on."

You are rarely ever going to see more then 4 QB's from one era go in and Brady and Manning are 1st ballot locks, Bree's is about a lock and a couple more years from being a 1st ballot guy, and Warner will probobly get in

Is Brees really a lock? He's had a few good years at New Orleans but he wasn't at all good in San Diego. This isn't really the place to argue any of that though.

Bree's has been a top 5 QB since he went to NOLA in 2006 and really only had one bad year in San Diego

Please refer to post No.1 in this thread. Nothing more need be said. As far as the HOF, McNabb will be inducted in the same year that pigs learn to fly!

Not only that but he will get MAJOR PROPS for his work in the community that has nothing to do with his play on the field, but he's been so good in the community and gotten so much credit for helping revive the city of New Orleans that the voters can't help but take that into consideration. It'll be bonus points for him...

Yeah, it was a little harsh. Let me call Rush Limbaugh and get his insight on McNabb.
