Can We All Finally Agree Donovan Needs To Burn In Hell (even you phreak)

[Rome]

Why?   Just in general, why?

[RezRob]

McNabb > Dilfer, Brad Johnson, Eli, Roethlisberger(1st time SB without any doubt)... difference: Coaching and Defense. He doesn't get a pass for his. But cmon Reid, Heckert, Banner, and the Defense get some of this stink too.

Difference:

McNabb - vomit

Dilfer, Brad Johnson, Eli, Roethlisberger - no vomit

Kolb talks contract talks, has a "wish" to play in 2010
Posted by Mike Florio on February 16, 2010 8:25 PM ET

As Garry Cobb continues to protest too much regarding the contradictions and refutations of his report that the Eagles and quarterback Kevin Kolb are negotiating a long-term contract, Kolb himself has gone on the record.

"We haven't even talked to them as far as I know," Kolb told Howard Eskin and Ike Reese of 610 WIP in Philly (via SportsRadioInterviews.com).  "That totally blew me away whenever that was reported because it was obviously false.  Yeah, that has not been discussed yet."

The phrase "as far as I know" means it's possible that the agent has been talking to the Eagles without telling Kolb.  Based on other information we've compiled, however, we think that Kolb knows exactly what's been happening in this regard.

Nothing.

And the Eagles need not rush to do a deal with Kolb because Kolb has no desire to leave.

"I feel like I fit in this system so well and not just the system but the coaching staff and the players and the personnel all the way around," Kolb said.  "You know even on the other side of the building with the business side and all of that.  I just feel like our personalities really fit well together, we work hard together and I look forward to taking over this thing one day and working with those guys.  I would never wish myself to be anywhere else."

Kolb also made it clear that he hopes the "one day" when he "tak[es] over this thing" comes sooner rather than later.

"I wish I could have played last year," Kolb said.  "With that being said I am going to wish it even more this year.  It's tough, but I know it's an even harder situation for the Eagles.  There are three of us out there that can play so I am going to keep their feelings in mind and try to remain positive no matter what happens."

So while the Eagles have been saying all the right things about the status of Donovan McNabb for 2010, the Eagles might want to consider putting a sock in Kolb's talk box until they can figure out whether Kolb's wish will come true.  Especially if McNabb decides that he wants a "financial commitment" regarding his status with the team via a big-money deal that extends beyond the coming season.

company man, just like banner likes it

maybe kolb could grow a pair of balls and put a "start me or trade me" ultimatum on the eagles. come out and say he wants to be the qb of this team right now and if hes not then let him go somewhere else. 

[Munson]

It's starting to look like it depends what type of year McNabb has. If they come out and go 5-3 or 6-2 and McNabb is having another good year, they might just let Kolb walk at the end and sign McNabb for the rest of his career.

[Eagaholic]

What happens if they wait and Donovan gets them to the nfccg, but then pukes and loses? Is that a win or a fail?

[Munson]

For them and their pockets? A win.

But by that time they would have used his good play during to year to already ink the deal. Seems like every year between week 6 and 10 they give a long term deal to someone who's having agood year.


I can't see them letting this go all the way to the end of next year, that hasn't been this front office's MO.

[Eagaholic]

I wouldn't disagree with most of that, but you'd expect Donovan to have 5 or 6 wins at midseason anyway. After 11 seasons they pretty much know what they have in him so I don't think they need to wait until midyear to see how he does. On the other hand, since much of how they did business had directly to do with the cap, this year might be much different. They really don't have to deal with Kolb's contract for a couple of years as things are now. They will get rid of one of the QBs, so it probably comes down to who that is.

[Munson]

yah, the lack of salary cap/not knowing whats' going on with the CBA probably has a huge roll in all this too.

[Sgt PSN]

so the biggest offseason story so far is whether or not the eagles are talking extension with kolb.  yawn. 

but since it's being talked about:

There are three of us out there that can play so I am going to keep their feelings in mind and try to remain positive no matter what happens

i've gone back to hating kolb again.  wtf is all this talk about feelings and shtein?  does he want to be a football player or dr. phil's co-host? 

[ice grillin you]

what is he even saying...that he was contemplating ripping his teammates and then decided against it...like now if donovan goes out and has a bad practice he wont bash him?

[hbionic]

Eagles suck.
