I mean who needs 21 touchdowns a season? Oh and he'd also thrown for a totally lame just under 10,000 yards at that point and rushed for over 1,800 yards. I'm with Rush, an average of 2,500 yards passing, 400 yards rushing and 21 touchdowns while completing over 55% of your passes per season is LAME. Oh, also, the fact that Donovan was getting sacked about 35 times a season was also totally his fault.
Stas of a good QB, maybe even very good, but not supersatr status he had when Rush made his comments.
That's a ridiculous statement, I give you a paragraph of stats and you come back with those are not superstar stats.
Thanks for conceding the point
They just aren't.
Go back and look at Mark Rypien's stats. He threw 84 TDs his first four years, had a higher yards per attempt average than McNabb's and was never considered a star let alone a superstar!
Bulger threw the same number of TDs that McNabb did in his first four years at a much higher yards/attempt average and he still isn't considered a superstar.
Ok, those two had great WRs how about this. In 2003 Tom Brady had started one season less than McNabb had. Only threw two less TD (of course he averaged 23/year to #5's 21). His WR were just as bad and he had won two superbowls, but he still didn't make Madden and at that time was not as big a star as McNabb.
Matt Hasselbacks first four years starting were comparable to McNabbs as well and he still isn't considered a superstar.
Trent Greens first 4 years as a starter he threw 82 TDs, 12,977 yards, 7.5 yards/attempt. Never considered a superstar!
You might as well consede, because you are wrong on this one!
