He did say something in a PC about how one person couldn't make a team, but one person could maybe break a team.

I think that's what you called being facetious.

I didn't listen to it, so I can't say for sure he was funning around, or if he wasn't. But that's what he said.

That's what he said and no doubt what he meant.

Whether your a mcnabb fan or not, one thing anyone will admit is this....Mcnabb is inconsistent. pretty much the bottom line with him.

Add to that the following issues...

eagles defense can no longer control the game or give the offense a short field to work with.

the wr that mcnabb has this season are not doing much to get seperation except for the long ball

reid doesnt run the ball enough

so you have the balance of the game every week in the hands of mcnabb and you run a lot of high risk/high reward plays with a qb who is on and off again.

It's disingenuous to say that McNabb isn't protected by a running game. For whatever reason, the Eagles choose not to run the ball. Since McNabb came on the scene, the Eagles have ranked 24, 23, 5, 25, 31, and 30 in rushing attempts, and this includes the 40-80 attempts that McNabb throws in. The Eagles are currently ranked 22 in attempts.

One might argue that the attempts are so low because the run game is ineffective, but consider that they ranked 4, 8, 8, 4, 10, 17 in yards per attempt. They are currently ranked 3 in ypa.

The Eagles running game (or lack thereof) is a by-product of their offensive philosophy. Consider that McNabb's accomplishments (statistical and otherwise) are also a by-product of the fact that virtually the entire offensive gameplan is on his shoulders.

If the Eagles had an imposing running game, McNabb would be less impressive, at least statistically. A lot of McNabb's yards and TD's are coming in place of a running game. That's just the offensive design.

So in short you are implying that the Eagles are more interested in McNabb,s numbers than winning a game? If so, everybody needs to go!!! The West Coast offense does require more dink and dunk plays I agree. Atlanta plays a version of the West Coast offense and they appear to run the ball more than they throw it. Go figure.

YoMick,

I tried to respond to one of your posts in the other McNabb thread. It looks like that thread got deleted.

I just want to say, you misinterpreted my view on Jackson and McNabb. No hard feelings, I hope. I'll just leave it at that, because it's obvious it's not a good topic for discussion and debate.

OK. I buy that. He is very inconsistent. The more you put the ball in his hands the more likely something will go wrong instead of right due to his inability to be consistent with the pass. Like Farve, Mcnabb can give you the sweet play on one drive and then break open your heart with a can opener on the next. Drew is like that as well unfortunately.

Or not. It was one of those statements in which the person is trying to be half funny - half truthful. It was pretty ridiculous regardless of his true intent.

Atlanta playED a version of the WCO. Last year. it was a failure. They don't do that anymore.

They still ran the ball an awful lot last year also. They were a running team last year. At least I remember them that way. Am I wrong?

They definitely were. But alst year was the year they experimented with WCO routes and whatnot. Unfortunately, their receivers are poo-poo and can't run in and out of their breaks, so the WCO was a failure. It was obviously a far different model than the Eagles use.

Atlanta's receivers were not poo-poo yesterday (at least Crumpler wasn't) and the Eagles receivers WERE poo-poo yesterday (except Westbrook). Yesterday McNabb looked a lot like Vick and Vick looked like McNabb....a strange day in the NFL.

I mean, Vick still threw 2 picks, and only managed 8 balls to WRs, for less yardage than Crumpler alone.
