Donovan McNabb

[Tomahawk]

I'm not talking about football skills. I'm talking about smarts. Kevin Curtis may be the smartest and fastest guy on the field who can't get open or catch a ball.

farg the wonderlic--does it make you throw on time to your receivers or hit them in stride?

if so--it should be taken every Saturday evening

[QB Eagles]

farg the Wonderlic. Terry Bradshaw and Dan Marino barely have the brainpower necessary to maintain consciousness.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Donovan has even less.  He probably got lucky the day they gave the test.

[shorebird]

Obviously, he must have cheated or is real good at the guessamatic system.

Me play football.  Me like.

It's the story of the week

They can't win close games. They can't run the football in short yardage. They can't rely on their quarterback to know the rules of overtime. All of the Eagles' problems were exposed in Sunday's tie against the Bengals. They had 18 third-down plays, and they passed 18 times. Hard to believe, and it's even harder to believe McNabb did not know regular-season games could end in a tie. Believe this—if the Eagles miss the playoffs, McNabb will be in another uniform next season.

Last week, we bitched because Andy went on two running plays with the game on the line.  This past week, it weas becayse they didn't run the ball to get the first down.

The simple answer is, the Eagles just can't convert on short-yardage 3rd downs - simple as that.

Fuel to the fire.

He completed just 28 of 58 passes and had three interceptions and a lost fumble against the Bengals. In the Eagles' last four games, McNabb has a 53.5 completion percentage and has turned the ball over seven times (five interceptions, two fumbles).

He's gotten off to horrendous starts in each of those games, completing just six of 26 passes in the first quarters of the last four games.

That is terrible bad, horrendously awful, worthy of benching. Really, could Kolb do any worse?

Sure he could. But I think the general attitude of Eagle fans right now (myself included) is why not try? We've got six games left in a season that isn't going anywhere... might as well give Kolb an extended tryout. Between McNabb's fragile ego and Reid's loyalty to his franchise QB, we know that isn't happening though.

[Rome]

Kolb sucks and he certainly isn't the answer to anything concerning the Eagles troubles. 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

That's not necessarily true.


Maybe he can coach.

[MadMarchHare]

Yeah, we've certainly seen enough of him in game action to know he's terrible.

Of course, with the line and WRs they've got, it would be hard to judge his ability anyway.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Just say NO to Kolb.

McNabb should be the starter this and next year.
