QB Donovan McNabb had a controversial relationship with the Philadelphia Eagle fans right from the start when the team selected him in the first round of the 1999 NFL draft. His selection received a mixed reaction from the fan base.
He was never seen as the one who could lead the team to the Super Bowl, although he got there once and went to five NFC Championship games. He set a slew of team passing records, including most career wins.
Coach Andy Reid decided to make a change this year and traded him to the Washington Redskins. The two teams finally met yesterday in Philadelphia. During pre-game introductions, McNabb received a huge ovation from the fans. I thought that was a good sign on their part for someone who had done so much for the franchise.
He lead his team to a 17-12 win over the Eagles.
