Yeah, but Westbrook can still be there and just block. I'm talking about McNabb looking down and away from the back 7 and the extra second or so that gives the d line to get upfield. If McNabb could fake, setup and release, with any speed at all that'd be different, but it takes him forever to scan the field on a regular passing play as it is.

A hook and ladder?? in the farging NFL??

Are these iceholes farging serious??

you can tell reid was probably thinking "OMG IM SO SMART NO ONE EXPECTS THIS!"

i remember his release being faster with TO around.

its all the crap piled on. WRs who need time to get open. McNabb needs time to make sure they are wide open.

Reid was coaching too well, he had to get in some stupid before time ran out... he should have just done it in the first half like Jackson did.

[TexasEagle]

I'm also wondering why the line backers never got more than 7 yards from the los all game. And why the hell didn't they have any even *try* to jam Witten at the line. He got free releases all night.

When will the Reid era end???

[General_Failure]

At this point I'm looking forward to the Jim Johnson era ending more than the Reid era. Another stubborn bastich too willing to put mediocre players in his system instead of getting the players needed to match up to the offenses in the division.

[TexasEagle]

Hell I'm counting JJ in there too. The whole coaching staff needs an overhaul and, I'm saying it yet again, get rid of McNabb too. He's too inconsistent. At least Kolb will get rid of the ball quickly and he throws with some zip. I'm getting tired of watching the receivers slowing down on long routes because they have to wait for the ball to get there. He may not be the answer but I'd like to see a change. I'm starting to know what the Packers fans who got sick of Favre felt like.

[ice grillin you]

dont you do the hook and ladder X 3 when its like 4th and 40

the linebackers are a travesty on this team

is there a better pre 4th quarter qb in the history of the nfl than donovan mcnabb

other than the pimp did any wr get open this entire game?

[MDS]

well its tough when you rely on possession receivers like avant and people who shouldnt be in the nfl like greg lewis.

the lb's suck in pass coverage but its tough to complain about the run defense

but at the same time they had 0 sacks i believe so yea trent cole can suck a fleshpop

and mcnabb tightened up in the 4th as usual

but still they lost to dallas by 4, cant help but think this is a nfccg preview, hopefully in philly

[pinoyboy2pt0]

now, granted, 5 likes his wr's to be "wide" open, by a step or two it seems before he will throw them the ball.  

but who's going to fight for the ball?  baskett who is praised for his high jumping since the earth formed but we never see a fade, jump ball?  greg bobble hands lewis?  

90% of the blame goes on reid for mcnabb getting drilled and holding the ball.  you notice when aj, kolb, garcia comes in it's short, efficient 3, 5 step drops.  but since that fat farg thinks the world of 5, he calls all these long bomb routes and intermediate routes with zesty wr's, mcnabb (for the most part) is just dealing with the hand he's dealt.

like someone said before, he didn't have a problem holding onto the ball and getting sacks when he had a good wr on the team.  and wasn't that stretch of time one of the few times mcnabb wasn't injured?  bc he didn't have to hold the ball and get pounded for someone to get open. 

teams know, take away westbrook and we're pretty much farged.  double desean if you have to, worry about westy and everyone else just sucks.

herremans and jackson should go farg them selves while they're at it.  they played like shtein tonight.  bunkley didn't play well either, that (rookie?) LG white boy decleated him and just drove him back more than a few times.  bring back kimo!

considine for some reason bit on that double move when he was over the top coverage, whiffed on many other plays and sucks at special teams AND overcommited on the endzone play and let barber run right where he was supposed to be.  farger.

no chance they beat pitt and then its at chi in prime time

this team could easily be 1-3

[MDS]

chicago just lost at home to carolina, devin hester is hurt, and their qb is kyle orton

pitt i dont think theyll win, but thats 2-2 and they have still have dc twice, sf, sea, arz, cin, cle, atl and bal. figure they split with nyg, too. those are some bad teams there havas.

[ice grillin you]

you might be right

but would it shock you if they were 1 - 3

[MDS]

no  not at all

but youd have to figure this is too good of a team to lose 3 games in a row. but unfortunately they dont have a qb ballsy enough to not let that happen. 

[Phanatic]

Pitt isn't that good. They can win that game. We are frustrated but they were supposed to lose this game on paper.

That and pretty much everything Pinoboy said.
