McNabb was never at his best when it mattered most.
He is a cautionary tale for Mahomes staying healthy.
He doesn't throw as strong or accurate as Mahomes shows potential to be, but he's a top 10-20 all-time when at the top of his game.
And he was very fast and mobile when healthy, on par with Young and just a smidge behind Cunningham and Vick.
He went to 4 straight NFC championships right alongside Reid. THey was a lot of hight level play that got them there. He just didn't have the stamina to be in top form at the end. Further, when he got gimpy or tired, he didn't elevate, he cocooned. He made worse decisions when facing strong adversity than otherwise.
