we saw their entire careers. mcnabb is one of my five favorite players ever but not on my homer-ist days could i make the case he was a better passer than warner. early in his career his feet gave him an edge that warner didn't have but when he started getting banged up he stopped running. consistency was also an issue. i remember you could get a good feel for how his day would go early in the game. if he was loose and moving, he would cook. plenty of times he just threw balls at guys' feet though.
both were good at avoiding turnovers but mcnabb had to overcompensate to do it. warner threw a really beautiful ball and really consistently. his skills also stayed in tact when he started to slip physically. mcnabb's fall-off was abrupt AF.
And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
