I didn't watch the whole game, but the part I did see, McNabb was the only one making plays. He's good, but that won't fly against the better teams in the league. I can't wait to see how the Cowboys D handles him next week.

Best QB in our division, and it's not even close...that alone makes Philly a team that can win the division.
It will be a tough game in Philly...you can count on that. Dallas will not run away with this game unless they play better than they have in any game so far, meaning error free, turnover free, penalty free.
I expect a dogfight...I hope Bledsoe is still in one piece after all the blitzes he'll see this week.

Look deep into my eyes, and tell me what you see (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/statistics?stat=teampass&pos=def&league=nfl&year=2006&season=2)
Yeah. The vaunted SF 49ers pass defense, is the finest McNabb has seen all year. They're 24th. All 4 teams allow more than a 60% completion rate, and are allowing QB ratings of nearly 100 (i.e. not intercepting the ball).

Ridiculous. Really, if he was a Cowboy would you still feel that way?
He can make all the throws, has decent escapability, and the Eagles' organization are a bunch of penny pinchers. It's amazing to me that people think he's overrated, I never heard it 'til Jabba the Limbaugh said it. Now people say it over and over like parrots.

I actually like McNabb .. that being said, he's been playing against the worst teams in the league. Texans? 49ers? Packers? heck, even the Giants who gave up 40-something points to Seattle who got beat by 30 or so two days ago?
Sorry, until they play real teams especially on the road and win, I don't feel the Eagles or McNabb deserve any praise. Even if the Cowboys were to lose next week, that's at Philly where they always play tough against Dallas. McNabb will need to play a real team on the road and do well before he can be considered elite.
-Reality
His over confidence this week will be there downfall. He tries to make too many plays (throwing into double coverages, lobbing the ball, throws the ball with no zipp) but it seems he almost has to. There something I saw in the Houston game when the Texans were bringing it to him you kind of saw a McNabb that looked out of it to the point that Trotter had to talk him down. Its going to be an interesting game, but a game we have to win to establish oursleves.

He is one of the most overrated players in the league.
I really don´t think so, 9 TDs 1 int this year, I know he hasn´t played against good teams, but let´s not underestimate this guy, as much as I hate to say it he is the bes QB in the NFC and top 5 in the league.
He is the one player we have to worry about on sunday.
McNabb is NOT a very accurate passer. He does make good decisions with the ball though, rarely throws INT, he avoids the rush well, buys time for his wr to get open and finds them, that counts for a lot of his big plays.
McNabb is a QB that causes things to happen and gets wins for his team.
But there is no way greg lewis should be getting 2 long td's on back to back drives, that packers secondary is horrid.

McNabb is above average. But he's far from elite.
I wouldn't rate him as being in the top 10 QB's in the league.

He plays in the WCO and can't even muster a 60% completion percentage.
And he has a history of choking in critical games.

McFlabb IS overrated.He has not won a championship, and in his one visit to the SB choked. He had a weak division for 4 years- now that it is not he is being shown for what he is- a good QB and nothing more. He was blown up by the league for 2 reasons- he is black and he is a QB. He does not have any top WR's or TE, and the one good back they have cannot be counted on to carry the load. The birds will prove once and for all that having good lines will not by itself insure success- you have to have quality at the skill positions as well. We have the D backs to easily cover what they have- and as long as we contain him and prevent him from making big runs we will eat his lunch.

I agree with this. McNabb makes critical plays with his mobility when the game is on the line and makes good throws. If we do not contain him we will lose pure and simple.

Actually, I think he did exactly as advertised yesterday. He ran and threw with accuracy (unlike Vick and Young). You can't ask for more out of your QB.
Our D will be tested. Not only do you have to put pressure on him but also keep containment. Furthermore, your secondary has to cover for at least 2 more seconds and be aware if he becomes a runner. He will put alot of pressure on our front 7. It will be a great test for us.

I guess my biggest complaint of McNabb (if i were an eagles fan) is his inconsistency. He can pull off a miracle play and then miss a 5-10 yard pass, throws a lot of balls right into the ground about 3-5 feet in front of a player.
He gets rattled and loses his accuracy for 5-6 passes in a row, then scrambles in the pocket and launches a great throw to a wide open receiver for a 40 yard TD.

I have always sort of thought that McNabb was overrated. He is inaccurate, as many have noticed, and he is constantly overblown by the media. When the going is good he is all smiles and goofing off, and that is probably why they lost the Giants game this year. He might have been moonwalking on the sideline instead of studying pictures of the game, and talking to the OC. Oh By the way, he referred to us on NFL network as "that other team". I think we should introduce ourself.....

To say that McNabb is overrated because he chokes in the big games reminds me of when people used to say the same thing about John Elway, completely overlooking the fact that both of their teams really had no business being in the big games in the first place, and wouldn't be without their quarterbacks carrying the entire team on their back.

I agree in a way. I am not sure if he is overrated, or if it's the league and the media over-promoting him. Mostly because of what Rush said. And that makes people who do not like the Eagles, think he is overrated. And I at sometimes think or thought at one time, also. Or could be because he chokes somewhat in the bigger games, along with the rest of the team.
However, I have to admit, he is a very good QB. And if we had the chance to have him, before Bledsoe was signed. I would not have been opposed to it at all.

The media has propped him up, and the Eagles have made him the face of the franchise.
He has a tendency to crack under pressure because all of the pressure is on his shoulders. He can't handle it, and big games have proven this flaw.
My feeling is that he has a few good years left, and his window is closing. Though it has not slammed shut yet.

Ahh yes..the semi-regular season Mcnabb is overrated thread...
Donovan Mcnabb is a pretty good quarterback and most teams in the NFL would love to have him, including the Dallas Cowboys.
The only problem I have with Mcnabb is that he is very inconsistent throwing the ball. One minute, the ball is thrown beautifully and the next he is throwing at the ground. Like Peyton Manning, he has failed to capitalize on his team's success and get them an NFL Title.
Other than that, Mcnabb is a top 5 Quarterback in the league for sure.
Also, for the person who said people were afraid to criticize Mcnabb because of the Rush Limbaugh comments, you might want to tell that to Terrell Owens, Stephen A. Smith (who disgustingly took Owens' side), and a member of the Philly Chapter of the NAACP, who last year said Mcnabb was a "UNCLE TOM SELLOUT" for trying to become more of a pocket passer.
Yeah...people are afraid to talk about him alright :rolleyes: .

Funny that he's the best leader, but his coaches told TO to support him because he had a fragile psyche! Funny because he was totally gassed in the Superbowl and cost his team the championship.

He plays around during the game and costs his team

All he does is throw little dump screen passes

I guess my biggest complaint of McNabb (if i were an eagles fan) is his inconsistency. He can pull off a miracle play and then miss a 5-10 yard pass, throws a lot of balls right into the ground about 3-5 feet in front of a player.
He gets rattled and loses his accuracy for 5-6 passes in a row, then scrambles in the pocket and launches a great throw to a wide open receiver for a 40 yard TD.
You hit the nail on the head. Everyone labels him "inaccurate" but an inaccurate quarterback doesn't complete 4th and 26... or the perfect pass to LJ Smith last night... or the 2 perfect strikes in the superbowl (TDs to LJ and Westbrook).
McNabb is streaky. He'll go on a tear and complete 20 some passes in a row. Or he'll start a game in a funk and throw 5 straight into the ground. He can be VERY accurate at times, only to come out flat the next series. All in all, the positives far outweigh the negatives.

Drew Bledsoe is no Donovan McNabb. He's a servicable starting QB that never gets injured and makes too many mistakes and too few plays if leaned upon. Somewhat ironically, his only major injury resulted in the beginning of Tom Brady's HOF career. I should not have made light of his internal bleeding, it was a cheap attempt to drive home a point.

McNabb impressed me last night. Didn't think he would come out and just torch you guys' secondary like that. If only he was capable of doing that on a weekly basis.

Yeah that'd only be like the greatest season a QB has ever had, if only he could do that. After all, he's only had one of the best 5 week performances in the NFL ever. If only he could keep that act up, then he'd impress me.
