game over

1 team done in the nfc east!!!

Keep in mind he returned to the game after it happened. More of a wait and see...imo.

He also was a non-factor after he returned.

The Eagles have some talent, but playing in this division and depending on 2 stars who get hurt every year isn't a recipe for success.

The eagles, sans Westbrook, are done and done. They have no replacement for him to sustain them for any real drive for a championship. Too bad if he is out

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Ouch. That's a rough deal. He might have returned but I don't think he's suiting up and taking the pounding at NFL Runningback every single week with broken ribs. He's likely out for a few weeks at the very least.

We will see how good a team the Eagles have and how good McNabb is with running the WC offense.

 

[Walker]

Any word on how long he will be out?

Remember all those articles by Eagles writers how the Cowboys are an injury or 2 away from being a ****** team??

So where are all these Eagles writers now with Shawn Andrews' potentially lingering back injury, and now Westbrook's potentially serious rib injury??

hahahaha...now they have their one injury that will cost them their season

You can play w/ broken ribs. I watched the game and noticed that they don't look the same w/o Westbrook in the game. I think Shwan Andrews is also out for an undetermined amount of time.

8-8 is what they are.

They are who we thought they were!

 

[jcollins28]

He had the same injury in 2004, and missed 1 game. I'm thinking they play it safe this week. They have a bye week 7, so a week 8 return seems likely. That gives him 3 full weeks to heal up. I'm sure he will wear some sort of extra padding to protect them going forward too.

i heard its hard to breathe with broken ribs let alone play football.

 

[AbeBeta]

[CrazyCowboy]

You can't do anything with broken ribs without pain. Sneeze, cough, laugh, take a dump. It all hurts and a lot.

game over

It was game over regardless. The NFC East will send three teams to the playoffs, and those teams will be the Cowboys, Giants and Commanders. The Eagles are 2-3 right now and 0-2 in the division. They still have to play the Giants twice.

If you look at the schedules, the Cowboys, Giants and Commanders may all be 7-1 by week 8.

This is going to be one of those years where the Eagles may be 10-6 and still miss the playoffs.
