Ok - How long does Philly stick w/ McNabb if he keeps stinkin it up? He sure seemed to be hurting the Eagles the past 2 games.

It's a good question. 8 games max if this continues.


Did you just hear that he threw 43 x tonight? The ESPN crew was like - WHY was Reid throwing it so much w/ McNabb at about 75% healthy.

Westbrook was avg 5.5 everytime he touched the ball. Why wasn't he ran more? Ride the HORSE !!!


I didn't know he threw that much tonight.

They'll bench him only if they're sub .500 halfway through the season.

Through the season.

They won't bail on him if he's remotely healthy.

Next season is in question, though.

The minute Kevin Kolb was drafted, I KNEW there had to be something WRONG with DMac-remember all the hype last mini camp how #5 made a QUICK recover from his ACL?

I don't know. I am kinda w/ Hos on this.


If they are still struggling after 8 games. I think they make some excuse to bench him for healing purposes and start the rook.

Why is that? Why on earth do the Eagles not go out and get a WR? I mean for crying out loud. Why didn't they go hard after Randy Moss?

If I were a fan of that team - I would be frustrated to no end. I can't believe they start the season w/ those no name WR's.

For some reason Reid just refuses to establish a running game. I don't understand it, unless he just feels that Westbrook will break if he used him any more than he does.

If McNabb is healthy, Reid doesn't use Westbrook as much as he should.

And Marty M is STILL calling the plays. Go figure...

Until Reid is hanging onto the ship's mast while the rest is submerged he will be stubbornly loyal to Chunky and his soup.

Reid is loyal so I do not see him going away from McNabb. Not even sure next season there would be an open competition.

Yeah-even the announcers said that one of the reasons why Reid gets pass happy is b/c he feels the ball needs to be in DMac's hands more.

I think that was true up until a couple of years ago. The younger McNabb was a big weapon. But now.......

When healthy, McNabb is a very good quarterback IMO. Problem is, he has had injury problems the last few years and it's obvious he isn't close to being 100% right now. Throw in the fact that they have no true #1 WR and you have big problems on offense.
