The PC will start at noon. Please post updates, because I won't be able to listen.
This is going to be an ugly one.
Hopefully he'll announce that McNabb is considering season ending surgery.

oh right, it's only for the away MNF games.
it should be on csn
MRI on MCNabb, will know tomorrow
Hood has a hurt heel (thank God)
All my fault, tough loss, too many prnalties, we'll fix it
McNabb likely out Sunday
said he doubts mcnabb will play sunday. oh my! breaking news!
i was hoping for a resignation
He seems pretty resigned to Sucking. That's probably not the kind of resignation you were thinking, though.
Keep the play-by-play press conference transcript rolling.. Some of us can't listen to it.
It makes sense that Lito would bite on the pump with 8 guys going after the QB. It's ludicrous that Bledsoe would have that much time with that many people coming. That said, Lito's sucking this year, as has been mentioned.
i would kick that motherfarger in the face so hard if i had the chance...bring butchy and whoever else...ive been sick and tired of of his shtein since 2000...i said it then and ill say it now...the team wins in spite of him not because of...he needs to go and they need to bring a coach in that can light a fire in mcnabb make him a leader make him accountable give him a heart transplant...something...and if any or all of that isnt possible then five needs to go as well
either way the reid mcnabb combo has to be blown up
its sickening beyond belief and yesterday was the last straw
That's nice. What's going on in the press conference? Is it over? Is he still talking?
What was the word on Donovan's injury? I know he's likely out but what kind of injury is it?
And what's up with Michael Lewis?

A healthy McNabb is one of the best QB's in the league. Reid called a very good game yesterday overall.
If you got your wish, this team would be worse for it, not better... whether you like it or not.
Man, losing really brings out the idiocy, eh?
he said right now he wouldn't bet on McNabb playing sunday, but he hasn't heard any information regarding his injury yet. If he doesn't play, Mike will get the start.
Mike Lewis (concussion), unsure if he'll be able to play since it's too early to know.
Obviously, this is the "No Press Conference Info" thread. Boooo

You're here, so... yep. Ha.

no he isnt...hes a good qb...that lacks in many many areas

well if making one of the worst calls in the history of the nfl is a good game then your standards are different than mine
If you got your wish, this team would be worse for it, not better... whether you like it or not.

the idiocy is always around, but after losses people tend to post more. I'm guessing it's theraputic.

Pfft...prove it.
So Mike McMahon starts, I hope.
Quintin Mikell possibly at SS.
Not having Mike Lewis in there isn't necessarily at bad thing considering how terrible his pass coverage has been this year.
How cool would it be if Reid offered his own resignation and decided to turn himself into the Head Coaching Police for Crimes Against Coaching. He probably wouldn't do it cuz he'd be found guilty of making the biggest coaching blunders in the history of modern sports. This guy makes Steve Spurrier look like Vince Lombardi.

Reid called probably his best game of the season through 3.5 quarters yesterday then blew it all up at the end.....unbelievable

IGY, i was referring to the OTHER idiocy being spewed for the last couple weeks. We here at CF know you've been an idiot for quite some time now and we appreciate your rediculous overreactions.

Get out queer!
its amazing that reid calls a few running plays and all of sudden he called a great game...is that what its come too...shouldnt we expect more than that??

Maybe some day the loser will understand that he has to do it for a full 4 quarters.
IGY: McNabb is one of the best when healthy, whether you like it or not. Name 5 better QB's in the league.
I'll give you Peyton Manning, Carson Palmer, Tom Brady, and Ben Roethlisberger, even if some of those choices are questionable. I'm fully prepared to laugh my ass off if you want to add anyone else to that list.
Reid's call on 2nd & 7 was questionable, sure... but a mistake that huge is out-of-character for any pro QB, especially the only one to ever throw 30+ TD's and less than 10 picks in a season. He should have thrown it over Reggie's shoulder and been an incomplete pass at worst. Saying Reid should be fired after last night's game is pure reactionism with absolutely no use of common sense or intelligence. I expect it from a piece of trash like you, actually.
So... who would this team have won a Super Bowl with in the last 5 years? Let's see... when they hired Reid, the top choice at that point was Jim Haslett. When they drafted McNabb, they could have also had Akili Smith, Cade McNown, or even Daunte Culpepper. I'm guessing you think they would have won a Super Bowl if they'd drafted Ricky Williams. That would have been totally smart with a very capable RB in Duce Staley already on the team, and absolutely no QB whatsoever.
You're in a dream world where you believe that if something goes wrong, there is a quick solution and explanation for everything. Sorry, bro, but this is not that world you think you live in. Stop hitting the farging crackpipe, and try to use some logic and reason once in a while. You might grow up in the process.
We here at CF know you've been an idiot for quite some time now and we appreciate your rediculous overreactions
how is it an overreaction when i felt the same way yesterday at 8:30 about reid as i do now
the guy is an abomination of a coach....period
if im the owner he gets fired immediately after 'the call' and childress coaches the last two series

The good news is that, unless you win the lottery, you have absolutely no chance of getting the money or connections to run a sports franchise into the ground, which is exactly what a dumbass like you would do.
McNabb is one of the best when healthy
fine hes 'one of the best'...but he isnt good enough and thats all that matters...id rather have a trent dilfer situation and win a superbowl than be content with 'one of the best' and win squat

If the Ravens QB in 2000 is a healthy 2003-2004 McNabb, they don't have to win the Super Bowl as a wild card. They go about 14-2 and run the table with ease. Dilfer was the weak link on a team that had everything but a passing game.

he said he couldn't comment because Donovan had
just gotten the MRI done and the specialist hadn't seen Donovan or the MRI. but like somebody else said, don't bet on him playing Sunday. he said he doesn't look good today.

id give a limb for my weak link to win a ring
dilfer went to one conference championship and won a superbowl...mcnabb went to five conference championships and won ZERO...spin away as you please but the record speaks for itself...
You are seriously contending that Trent Dilfer is a better QB than Donovan McNabb?
Guys like Dilfer and Brad Johnson won Super Bowls with ridiculous defenses leading the way. The Eagles?
In 2001, the Eagles lost the NFC title game against an offensive juggernaut, because the defense was banged up, especially in the secondary.
In 2002, they lost it because the Bucs were peaking on both offense and defense and were playing ridiculous football. They also didn't have the personnel on D, plugging holes with guys like Blaine Bishop and Levon Kirkland.
In 2003, the D played well enough to beat a hot Panthers team, but McNabb was injured in the middle of the 2nd quarter and could not finish the game.
In 2004, they won the NFC championship with relative ease and proved to be only slightly outmatched in the Super Bowl.
The bottom line is that if McNabb is healthy and the defense is healthy and not sucking ass, this team is a contender. As I'm sure MDS would agree... McNabb + Defense = Super Bowl
i'm with you on the Rams game, and slightly the Carolina game, but the Tampa game was nothing but a flat out choke.
again spin it as you wish...but the qb has been to five conference champs and won ZERO superbowls
hes not even fran tarkenton

I don't think that's so cut and dry.
Dilfer was a perfect game manager...the key to winning a championship is to play well in all the games, not great one game then bad the next. Consistency is more important than brillance.
Would McNabb have hit Sharpe perfectly on the numbers for a 90-yard TD vs. the Raiders? Would he have lofted the ball over Sehorn's head right into Stokley's hands in the SB? These are the routine plays McNabb has always had trouble executing consistently.
