Default Worse clock management I have ever seen.
were the Eagles thinking? They let at least 2 minutes of game clock just tick away.

Agreed.

It's like they never ran a two-minute offense before.

And that was mostly on McNabb...he was strolling around out there as if he didn't have a care in the world...can you imagine, oh, Roger Staubach in the same situation...

Just as I gained respect for Owens tonight (even though I can't stomach the guy) I lost even more respect for McNabb...

It was like Dave Campo was coaching the Eagles.

They do, it just takes them three minutes.

I don't care what anybody says about the coaching, that was all on McNabb. The freakin center was more in control than McNabb.
You can't spell bias without BS.

Patriots were just as bad. Before half, not using t/os. Both teams were bad.

Absolutely. At least the Center was trying to get them lined up quickly!

I think they just wanted to stay in Jacksonville longer rather than going back to Philly. Dumb!

I agree, Juke. McNabb is always so emotional, but where was the desire late in this game? It seemed like he was drained.

Unless McNabb is calling his own plays (which he's not) then it's all on the coach. Reid is Mr. Conservative and he showed his true colors today.

Odd thing Dale...there is "something" about McNabb that has always bugged me..

Perfect example: He threw the interecption late in the 4th...and immediately pointed to himself to let everyone know it was his fault...as if that was of any importance...

Again, my best example of the consumate competitor, Roger Staubach...he'd be so wrapped up in the game, it would never have occurred to him to think about pointing out who's fault the Int was...

McNabb just doesn't have the edge that's needed....

You hit the nail on the head. Your comment about McNabb is spot on.

Even if the coach sends in the play it comes into McNabbs helmet, they do not NEED to huddle, the QB SHOULD be able to get them lined up and get the play and call it at the LOS. They should have been getting the ball snapped at 15 seconds or so on the play clock, they were using at least 20 seconds EVERY play.
