A-hole Eckel decided his McNabb theory required an article

...and now ESPN has picked up on it

Damnit

I don't care either way. Blow it up. The "window" is closed at this point anyway.

If McNabb is mad about not being able to travel with the team, he shouldn't be. If anything, after the whole debacle with TO, you would think McNabb would have respect for team rules and policy. Players on IR don't travel with the team. Period.

Excuse me if I don't jump all over an article by Eckel predicting the demise of McNabb. If it was from a more credible source, maybe I'd think there is a shred of truth in there. But right now the article is questionable in its accuracies to me.

Is he going to get mommy to go and talk to Eckel about his article?

PhillyPhreak54 · January 23, 2007, 01:13:21 PM

GCobb and Hugh pretty much pissed all over Rhea and Angelo this morning and it was great. G got on there and basically told them to get off Garcia's nuts because dude is about to be 37, has a weak arm and who knows if he'll ever do what he did again.

I would like to see Eckel go cover some other team. Is there an opening in Buffalo? He'd let that FO run a train on his ass he loves 'em so much.

Get out of town, Mark. You suck.

yeah if you wanna pummel mcnabb theres a lot of places he deserves it....but i dont understand the people who act as tho garcia is some sort of savoir...hes a great back up...period...

if he somehow flips the season he just had into a starting job with nice money then there are some really dumb people in the nfl

Garcia is adored because he's a nutzo on the field and screams and gets dirty. Its the Philly way. Sometimes fans will like a guy if he's a dirtball more than if he's a good player. I don't understand that sometimes.

And the Eagles are in a bad spot here either way. If Garcia gets big money and rolls, they will face heat for letting him walk. It'll be portrayed by the ilk of Cataldi and Eckel that they let him go on purpose because they wanted no controversey. If he's back we'll be back to the days of people throwing water bottles at McNabb's head as he walks off the field.

My take is this;

If Garcia wants to come back under the vet min with an incentive laden deal, cool. That way he's rewarded if he has to start again. And if he's just being the backup he's paid as such.

But if he leaves because a team throws money at him, Feeley is the #2 and they draft a kid.

Eaglez · January 23, 2007, 01:33:59 PM

True, it is not like the Eagles don't have options. Feeley knows the system pretty much as well as Garcia does and has a stronger arm. The only tradeoff being that Garcia is more mobile and arguably makes better decisions with the ball because of his experience.

Would I like Garcia back? Sure, I think his presence helps the locker room too because a lot of players have great things to say about him. But there is no reason to overpay for him when there are other areas of need and the Eagles have a capable backup in Feeley.

i dont know how you dont understand that...if mcnabb had one ounce of the fire garcia had hed be a much better player...mcnabbs biggest problem is not talent...its confidence and the lack of ability to not get down during tough times...also his desire to not lose is absent...these are all things garcia has tons of and if mcnabb had them hed be a much better player...maybe the kind of player that could win it all or at least a couple nfc championships

I can't imagine Andy wouldn't be comfortable with A.J. as the backup. It all hinges on whether Donovan is healthy enough to start the season.

I don't think he will be nor do I think they go into the season with A.J. as the starter, though. They'd be flat-out nuts if they did that.
