I just think he lies somewhere in the middle of where you two are saying. Definitely not as good as Dala thinks and not as bad as Uncly thinks.

i do NOT blame McNabb for this loss, its all on the D.

I actually think McNabb is incredibly talented, and when he uses his legs and takes off running, he could be the best QB in the league. But his record in the big games speak for themself, and I am tired of getting my hopes up and my dreams shattered.

i agree. He runs the 2 min drill much better at the end of the first half than at the end of the game..


what i dont understand is how larry fitz can do what he does... can anybody in the league cover him without using 2/3 men?? he's unreal. Warner is also a cool customer in those big games... 4TD passes. nice game by Kurt, and he didnt give up any turnovers, which were part of the reason the Eagles crushed them in November...

Philly is lucky to have him.
He is a damn good QB.

But...
For anyone who actually watched the game,
McNabb was bad in the first part of the game.
He missed, underthrew and overthrew open receivers,
two of which would have been touchdowns after the run.
14-6 would have been 14-14.

He got in rythym and was very, very good. He was putting
short and long passes right on the money allowing receivers
to catch in stride and make even more yardage. He was also
given very good protection for most of the game. He had
eons of time to hit some very wide open receivers.

The next to last drive (last drive there was, what 9 secs left?)
he again made some bad passes but then came through hitting
Curtis on the money. Pass interference. I really thought the Eagles
offense as a whole played well considering Westbrook half speed.
But Warner and Fitzgerald ripped them a new one. The D was
beaten by a very hot team offensively. The Cardinals really are
playing very well offensively. Pittsburg had better hit Warner
in the mouth all game or they too will get scored on.

ONe thing no one has really talked about.

A. Boldin screaming at the Cards offensive Coordinator
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FCKN GAME WHILE HE IS MAKING
CALLS??????

I would give him a good bhatch slap up side the head and run.
The O-lineman on the Cards should have physically
sat his butt down. You dont screw with the offensive coord.
while the offense is on the field and he is trying to make
calls. That was absolutely absurd, worse than TO behavior.

i'll agree DM might not take control all the time he should. his mates don't always help him by making a play or catch when he needs it. at times i don't think reid's play sequences are very good either.

i shouldn't say this but DM in a viking uni and the viks would be a Very dangerous team. imo.
