Hypothetical question about McNabb vs the Chargers

mussa · October 11, 2005, 10:41:28 AM

Hes def lost a step or three with the injury. Hes about 65% as mobile as he used to be. He shrugged off acouple last week, but last year hes was nearly impossible to bring down IF he saw u coming at him. This years he just can't get that inital quickness. The injury is def opening him to slaughter, especially when the Oline is swiss cheese.

The Oline's pass blocking has been good. Their run-blocking...not so good.

To be honest the team has been asking a lot of him. It would be a lot for a healthy QB to spot the other team almost 20 points every game. The D has to play better early in games to take pressure off of the rest of the team. It would also be nice if special teams could start getting respectable field position for the offense to work with. Holding onto the ball is also a good freaking start. Once the rest of the team is playing like they are supposed to the rest will come together.

How about some other phases of the football team cover for McNabb and the offense for a change this season? Good defenses are supposed to keep games close..... Don't we have one of those?

pass protection last week was spotty, but basically it was just bad.

It's tough to pass block when the D-line can just pin em back and go. That being said, AR will right the ship. Donovan will play the entire season in great pain, that is what warriors do. RJS will eventually kill himself with a rusty spoon.

except atlanta came up with the blueprint on how to beat the eagles...actually pittsburgh did last year...blitz the ish outta them and body their wr's...game over...

not all teams have the ability to do this which is why they can throw at will on pathetic d's like kc sf and oakland...but against a quick athletic defense that can blitz with speed and precision...they are in trouble...especially with mcnabb unable to scramble now...im scared to even think about them facing greg williams' blitz packages...donovans had trouble with that d when he could move

Technically one could argue that it was the Bucs in the NFC Championship Game, followed by the Bucs at the Linc home opener (there you go jerome99rip), the Patriots the following week, then the Panthers in the NFC Championship game (though I don't know if it was their blitzing or their dominance over Pinkston and Thrash).

there wasnt much blizting done before they had TO as the wr's could be handled without a pass rush...westbrook wasnt the huge factor back then that he is now either...it wasnt until last year when they eagles got some bigtime firepower that teams realized...specifically pittsburgh...that the only way to slow up the offense was to bring the house at mcnabb...hopefully they can adjust but its going to be awfully hard when your qb cant move...

There's only 2 ways to counter that blitzing.

1) Max protect.
2) QB throws quickly and hits WRs in stride.

Max protect it is!

No need to look it up. I know what it is, and if he sticks his face anywhere near my ass I'll have a nice wet surprise for him. A stinky surprise. Feces.

3-7) run the ball
