Let the 2005 season begin. GAME THREAD!

I still can't fathom why McNabb didn't run once.

Even if he scrambles a couple times and gets only a few, that would've helped his cause since Atlanta's Dline would've been more careful rushing the passer.

45 throws and no threat of the run?  You're just inviting the defense to tee off on ya.

Agreed.

The most ridiculous instance was when Coleman swatted the ball down. Jesus fargin Christ! He could've shaken that dude out of his jock.

WTF?  Are my posts invisible or something? 

They deserve their fare share of criticism as well but for I think McNabb made some terrible decisions tonight. He held the ball too long at times and during this last drive he had the chance to go one on one in the open field with a defensive lineman and he chose to throw. Result: Pass knocked down.

Mcnabb said he was sore in the press conference. I assume the x-rays were negative then?

Surprisingly I am not feeling so bad.  Birds will be fine.  Little disturbed that TO did not manhandle Hall.  I really thought TO was going to go off tonight.  Falcons looked like they were on a mission.  Birds looked very tired.

Neither am I. I didn't spill a single drop of anything on my Andrews jersey.

Yeah, the lack of run defense or offense sucked. TO dropping every other pass was tough. Akers just missing two kicks was infuriating. Trotter being thrown out ... did nothing for me, to be honest. The balls lost in the lights got old after a while. But man, my jersey is spotless!

Mark Brunell:  0 turnovers, 1-0

McFlab: 3 turnovers, 0-1

Tell me Brunell won that game for you guys. I dare you.

I'm tired. I'm a little buzzed. But I'm not pissed. Sloppy game. They'll bounce back.

If anyone thinks they're done b/c of this they're nuts.

Eagles will go into the BYE at 4-1 or 3-2

But after the BYE they'll rip off 7 or 8 in a row.

You're one dumb sonofabitch, you know that?

And the McFlab nickname is quite gay. I'll ask you again to go kill yourself. Drink a bottle of bleach or something.

didn't win it, but didn't lose it either.....a classic example of the "Dilfer Effect".   He's an average (at best) NFL QB at this stage of his career.  I was merely pointing out that he had a much better game than the All-World Pro Bowler this week.

Actually dumbass, Brunell doesn't have a record yet.  He's 0-0 since he hasn't started a game yet this year.  No go sit in the corner and fist yourself.

I should add that to the filter, but oh, I wouldn't want Waco to think I was a dictator or something. I know how sensitive he is about these sorts of things.

His brain is a red x? That can't be healthy?

Nice spin job, Boitano.

So you're saying you wouldn't want McNabb on your team?

I guess you enjoy Shane Matthews, Danny Wuerffel, Gibran Hamden, Tim Hasselbeck, Gus Frerotte, Jeff George, Sage Rosenfels, Patrick Ramsey, Mark Brunell, Jason Campbell and whatever other jagoffs you bums have had in Washington.

QBs leave Washington and get good. See Frerotte, Brad Johnson and Trent Green.

Washington = black hole for QBs.

Keep on spinning though. You entertain me.

Read the post before quoting it.....I said Brunell is average at best.....McFlab is a great player.....as long as the game doesn't mean anything.   In all likelihood he'll bounce back, but right now he's under tremendous pressure
