Because they are considered to be the best chance to shine in the Super Bowl I would guess.

Two all pro players still young with a lot to offer the league playing on hopeless teams contending for the super bowl title. Unlike Tom Brady who is also young but has two titles already.

I think you already know the answer on McNabb.

Because he is BLACK.

Has NEVER been a long-term success at QB for a black man.

Yes a couple have some numbers (McNair and one other .. what's his name who played in Canada) but no long streak of big game success.

Come on with the half-assed remarked to refute that. THERE HAVE BEEN NONE!

P.S. The Falcons should bite the bullet and go ahead and move Vick to receiver or DB. That is where he can excel at the NFL level. Not at QB.

mcNabb ever since the rush limbaugh fiasco will always get some ? why hes in the press no matter what the subject.
Manning i would say for 2 reason. 1. he was by far the darling QB last season along with Brady so it would be natural that there is some cary over interest. 2. Manning's little bro coming up in the ranks. The NFl is praying that the two mannings boys will be huge which would in turn be $$$ for the NFl

Vick is good until he gets hit. He hasn't even been hit hard and missed most of his second season. He won't last 5 years in this league the way defense play.

No matter how fast pr qwuick a guy is, he is going to get blind sided sooner or later, especially one that overestimates his abilities and stays a lilttle too long.

He WILL have to learn to stand in the pocket or he will get killed.

Thing is.... He is not nearly accurate enough as a pocket passer.

Great raw athlete. No chance to be great NFL QB!

Period!!!
