well if he was playing left centerfield like he was supposed to be instead of biting he wouldnt in theory have had to run with TO and thus "cover" him...he kinda just had to be back there


lito was supposed to mark TO up to ten yards (its was 3rd and 10) considine was supposed to be deep in case of exactly what happened....needless to say he wasnt

[methdeez]

get your best players on the field.  sadly dawk needs to step off, there's no room for a lb/s hybrid imo.  

dawk needs to be put out to stud.....hes a disgrace

I definitely was thinking that he was signifigantly slower than everyone else on the field.
If a 280 pound TE can consistenly outrun you, you have lost your value.

Also, I hate how PE.com does not put up quotes after losing games. What is this, Russia? Are we just going to pretend it didn't happen?
Dows anyone have what McNabb said about the final fumble? I really want to hear the explanation.

[ice grillin you]

andy didnt have a day after presser yesterday either...which i thought was a fineable offense by the league

in fact i havent heard of him having one since the game...anyone know if he had one today?

[Rome]

LOL - Considine could have been on him like a rubber and T.O. still would have blasted him into oblivion.

Considine sucks and belongs nowhere near the field unless he's lying six feet under it.

There is no excuse and if he offers one he can stick it were the sun don't shine. imo, that play cost them the game. How the farg does a qb who has been in the league as long as McNabb get confused over who to hand the ball off too after he was the one who called the goddamn play in the huddle?!?!? What??? Did he farging forget?!?!?!?

[ice grillin you]

they were running a fake reverse on that play and mcnabb claimed he double clutched it because he was trying to sell the reverse

I'm so glad Reid was calling the plays. Just imagine how bad a vanilla play from Morningwood could have gone!

[shorebird]

Like I said, he can take that shtein and stick it in his ass. Double clutch on a handoff?!? Yeah, of couse, see it done all the time.

Lay off, McNabb pitched a good game.  Without the drops he would've been like 30-37 for 300+ yds and 2 TDs (thanks DeSean).  It was a bad time for a mistake, but shtein happens.

The defense laid an egg, big time.  By the 4th, Trent Cole was getting knocked down with a feather, neither tackle produced at all, and I'm not even sure we had a left DE.  Plus Dawk is cooked, and played like it, no matter how pissy he got at his interview.  Start Demps.  And light Considine on fire;  if he's gonna get burned, he might as well look the part.

[Geowhizzer]

McNabb didn't cost the game - the piss poor defense and even worse special teams did that.

[General_Failure]

They all had a hand in it. If Dallas hadn't been facemask happy, it would have been a blowout anyway.

Lay off, McCain pitched a good game.  Without the drops he would've been like 30-37 for 300+ yids and 2 Tads (thanks De Sean).  It was a bad time for a mistake, but Stein happens.

The defense laid an egg, big time.  By the 4Th, Trent Cole was getting knocked down with a feather, neither tackle produced at all, and I'm not even sure we had a left DE.  Plus Dark is cooked, and played like it, no matter how Hoyda he got at his interview.  Start Damps.  And light Coinciding on fire;  if he's gonna get burned, he might as well look the part.

Farg that. shtein happens?!? That's half the problem with this team, shtein always happens. How often do you see the game winning drive gave away by the guy who is supposed to have the heavy hand in it because he's trying to make shtein up? The only guys he faked out were Best and hisself. What NFL QB have you ever seen double pump on a goddamn handoff? What, he invents crap in the middle of the drive that is supposed to win the game, and I'm supposed to lay off him? Bullshtein. I've been his biggest supporter for years here, but that crap last Monday night was dumbass bullshtein, and he's gonna' have to beat the Steelers to make up for it.

He had a great game if you are looking for fantasy points. Everything he did, all the rocket passes, the scrambling out of the pocket, the great passing pct. all went out the window with that fumble.

[reese125]

Do you think McNabb leads the league in receivers falling on the ground to make a catch? Just wondering.

[PhillyPhreak54]

While I was extremely annoyed and pissed off at 5's play on Monday....not just the fumble, but his refusal to run for the 1st down and his career long reluctance to THROW THE BALL AWAY....he's going to turn out a monster year.

I blame the not throwing it away shtein on Reid. Lay down the law, Big Red.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Listening to Cowboys fans around here and national media types/local radio hosts in DFW, San Antonio and Houston...

They all say the Eagles are a helluva team and they all love and respect McNabb.

Amazing difference between listening to them and listening to Cataldi and Rhea.
