Donovan McNabb

[reese125]

mcnabb cares way more about not throwing interceptions than he does making plays....its why for a guy who isnt a great thrower he has one of the all time best pass to interception ratios

you can choose to believe this because your a realist or you can choose to believe this because you think McNabb is just plain awesome

I for one believe this comment to the utmost

there are so many other qb's that play/have played the WCO system and feed the receiver on the break. The WCO is based off timing to run to perfection. McNabb knows this offense like the back of his hand bet yet refuses to trust his receivers to the know the offense.

The problem is Mcnabb does not trust himself throwing on many many occasions...which results not throwing the ball when the receiver makes his break. When you wait for the receiver to get open, the play breaks down and the OL breaks down... thus resulting in McNabb running outside the pocket to try and make the play....but the end result now-a-days is a sack or incompletion because Mcnabb is not his former self


McNabb is way too tentative with the ball...has been for years...but I wont disagree that he is the best option to win for this team

^^^^
pretty much

the problem is their best chance to win isnt good enough

He doesn't run because he doesn't want to be perceived as just another running quarterback.  That's nice.  Even nicer would be having a reputation for doing whatever it takes to win a game, though.

Maybe thats because HIS RECEIVERS SUCK!!

He never had a problem hitting TO on slants after he would break, or throwing to him when he was covered, or double teamed.

I don't want to sound like I'm a McNabb apologist like I have been in the past, but you can't lay all the blame on him in this case. How many drops and poorly run routes did we see last Sunday?? Do you really expect him to have any confidence in this group of receivers?

Thats because Feeley wasn't very good and his RECIEVERS SUCKED!!

Paint the Town Red! submitted by DonovanMcNabb

With the bye week comes a chance to rest and get ready for the remainder of the football season. At 3-3 we had a chance to catch our breath and watch the rest of the NFC East settle in a little. We still have a tremendous amount of work ahead of us to get better and make a push for the playoffs.

Speaking of playoffs, I had a chance to see some of the baseball games this past week. What a great time it is to be in Philadelphia. The support and enthusiasm that the town is showing towards the Phillies is awesome. I know that we received similar support when we went to the Super Bowl but I'll be honest, I wasn't paying close attention to that while it was going on. My focus was on the game itself and I guess I didn't appreciate it like I should have.

Seeing how the city has "gone red" has given me a different perspective on how passionate this city in its desire to be part of a championship. Everyone wants to be a part of the success. Civic pride is at stake. Philadelphia's identity is its sports teams and the team's success is everyone in the area's success.

I join that group who supports the Phillies. I hope they bring a championship to Philly - following the one the Soul brought earlier this year - as I also hope that the Eagles, Sixers and Flyers can do too. I'd love to see Jimmy, Ryan, Chase, Shane, Pat and the rest of the guys do what we weren't able to do thus far - make Philadelphia the City of Champions!

Dave Spadaro obviously wrote that for him.

Why does he have to sound so eloquent and shtein?

[Feva]

Yeah, he should sound like a stillupfront's mom like the rest of us, yo!!!

He's part of the elitist crowd, obviously.
