How long will the Vikings Ponder their future?
They should've ended that discussion & dumped McNabb a few weeks ago.
I'll always have a soft spot for McNabb (He is the greatest QB in the history of the Eagles, after all) but he has been useless for the past four or so years. His performances in D.C. weren't an aberration, most Eagles fans were expecting him to suck with a different team, Reid had been covering up for McNabb since 2006.
He doesn't seem to understand the stage that his career has reached, either that or he doesn't want to accept it. Going on with this diva crap (the most recent example being the discussions over his poor throwing motions) might have been tollerated at Philly but he can't keep throwing his weight around when he's been brought in on a one year deal to keep the seat warm for a rookie QB.
@The Eagle -
Thought you might have enjoyed that. The Eagles this year have been the 2010 MWSE. So much promise, so much talent, so many 4th QTR fade outs. We choked it up big time against the Niners, how do you lose a f**king 20pt half time lead at home? For shame. Not to take anything away from the Niners though, they ran the ball well & stuck in there for long enough to deliver the killing blow. They've struck gold in landing Jim Harbaugh to be the HC, what he's done with that roster is phenomenal. The craziest thing is that they still have five NFC west games to play - that means two games against the Seahawks, a game against the Cards & two gimmies against the lolRams. F you SF. F you & your easy schedule.
At least we smacked the 'Skins around this week & the general suck of the NFC East (& NFC in general TBH) this year means that we are still a great shot of making the playoffs. It's scary how good the Iggles are playing but still losing games. The red zone offence is woeful. Bright spots are LeSean McCoy becoming one of the best RBs in the NFL & our D-Line being head & shoulders above anything else in the league. 18 sacks in 6 games - which is especially amazing given that we've been missing Trent Cole for the past two games & Darryl Tapp since round one, both of those guys are back after the bye & Brandon Graham is expected to return from his ACL injury that he did last year.
Tony Romo is going to be walking into his own worst nightmare two sundays from now. Angry Philly home fans, the best D-Line in the league against one of the worst O-lines in the league, no #1 RB (Felix Jones out with a high ankle sprain). What do yo do, run the injury prone rookie until the wheels fall off or try to throw in the face of incredible pressure at guys like Nnamdi Asomougha, Asante Samuel & Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie? Man, it'd be nice to see our D actually work like it's meant to for once, fingers crossed that the Cowboys cop the brunt of a resurgent Eagles.
Oh & to stay true to the original post, the Rams still suck. Nice 0-6 record you got there.
