yeah but you know what..McNabb got them the farging lead in the 4th when it almost seemed impossible...exactly when the game should of been won by the defense that got them here in the first place

this lost game is solely blamed on the defense..they were getting crushed by the blitz all 3 quarters and JJ kept doing it...garbage

Oh I know he got them back. But even then the defense for two drives knocked Warner around and forced 3 and outs.

With the 1 pt lead, which should have been a 3 pt lead if not for that missed extra pt, 7 min to go I was hoping the defense would make a stop but something told me they would not.

Donovan McNabb can lick my hairy hanging ball sack.

What about Westbrook; he was outplayed by Edge. What about the Eagles receivers who were outplayed by Fitzgerald? Or, how about the defense who was outplayed by the Cards? McNabb deserves no more or less blame than anyone else on the team.

Bullshtein, he's the qb. The Eagles recievers weren't outplayed by the Cards recievers you dumbass, they aren't even on the field at the same time. And Bwest has played hurt all friggen' year.

C'mon McNabb hit Baskett right in the chest on 3rd and 10 on that last drive, and he dropped it. He was off on a few throws, but had some farging beauties (particularly that bomb to DeSean for the TD).

The D screwed the pooch, and ultimately I think the refs farged us harder than McNabb.

McNabb was not good yesterday. His awful touch cut the offensive output in half. The receivers weren't great, but he really has to do a better job of putting that ball in a place where the receiver has a chance to do something after the catch. Other than two slants to Curtis, McNabb really didn't do that. I'm not usually chiming in to kill the guy...but he does seem to shrink under the brightest lights.

three times I remember he utterly failed to put the ball in front of the reciever who had an open field in front of him, instead rifling it behind the poor bastich.

McNabb did not play well.

Zanshin · January 19, 2009, 09:06:01 AM

And that's not to say McNabb was alone in the subpar performance. Mikell had a really bad game, Demps had a bad game, Akers wasn't good, all of the linebackers were bad, and no one else stood out as anything other than mediocre. The loss was a team effort.

Celek excepted of course.

Zanshin · January 19, 2009, 09:10:28 AM

True. Celek had a really nice game. It didn't scream "awesome" but it was certianly above average and beyond reproach.

Diomedes · January 19, 2009, 09:35:29 AM

He was the only player who showed up ready to perform in the clutch. He didn't do anything particularly fantastic, but he took advantage of almost every shot he got and that's more than can be said of the rest of the team.

He set a postseason franchise record for receptions. The highlight of the TD grab was Baskett's block

another choke for mcnabb. guy should of scrambled more yesterday. especially the last drive. i can't hate all on him though cause he has no receivers. and a coach who calls play action deep routes when the defense is showing obvious blitz. i don't know how many times yesterday i saw the cardinals blitz's coming and the receivers all went on deep routes, nobody running a slant. the cardinals ran those quick slant routes all day against our blitz's. it was cake, all day. fundamentals of football once again lost when shtein hits the fan.

PhillyPhreak54 · January 19, 2009, 11:10:52 AM

Mussa, come on man...

1. He did not choke

2. Yes he had a bad first half and was off, but he played damn good in the second half.

3. How can a coach know they are going to show blitz before he calls the play? They send the play in, they line up and then they show blitz when they are at the line. And they can show blitz all day and then back out of it if an audible is called.

Zanshin · January 19, 2009, 11:12:02 AM

He didn't flat-out choke-- but he didn't raise his game in any way, which is strikingly similar.
