I think the backlash against McNabb would be significantly less had he not done his typical post game blame other people routine.  What other franchise qb distributes blame so readily?  If he wants to be the leader he so consistently professes he is, he mans up and puts the entire game on his shoulders.  Listen to Brady or Manning or Brees after a loss.  

He didn't play well.  shtein happens.  That isn't even what gets me anymore it's his entire farging attitude I can't stand.

if only Desean was older, darn it!  then donovan would've hit him in stride on that deep pass!
I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood.

Tom Jackson, former NFL player, and pretty much every other former or current NFL player will tell you if the ball hits you in the hands, you catch it.


And no, McNabb is not Tom BRady or Peyton Manning....if the rest of hte team is playing like shtein, he's not going to be able to get them to beat a good team. A zesty team, maybe, but not a good team like the Cowboys.


When the defense is getting raped, I'll blame the defense. Not McNabb.

He didn't miss him. He put it where it should have been caught.

Those clowns were dropping balls all over that joint yesterday.

a 95 mph fastball 10 feet behind you isnt where it should have been.

mcnabb fired it behind maclin, who running full speed, reached his hands back into an area that happened to be right in between the ball was. its a tough play for him to make. but its doable. however, it never should have come to that. there was no reason for mcnabb to miss him like he did.

that play essentially defines mcnabbs career and its no shock that youre making him out to be the hero. he once again choked away a big game. enough with the excuses.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Oh, I get it. So the ball must be chest high, in front every single time? QBs aren't JUGS machines. But everyone seems to think every QB outside of Philadelphia possesses this pin-point accuracy and McNabb is the only guy who misses on throws.

He was running a cross and he had to reach shoulder level, poor guy!

He took his eye off of it.

ice grillin you

it wasnt catchable unless you only watch it in a super slo mo replay then it "appears" catchable

having donovan have to hit a moving target in the 7-10 yard range is not what you call a high % throw

which unfortunately is at the heart of the west coast offense

its similar to putting shaq in a three poiint contest

lol, the dude was 20 yards wide open and you're giving him credit for throwing it where maclin could've caught it by twisting to catch it behind him

never said it was a good throw--it was a disgusting lead pass...but it hit both hands square in the middle. and lets not pretend he had to make some kind of acrobatic reach back..cmon now

Munson

lol at "10 feet behind him"

He barely had to twist his body for it.....pretty much right at his back shoulder.

That's a ball that an NFL WR is supposed to catch. Jason Avant has made more than a few catches like that this year....why can't Maclin?


Oh...must be McNabb.

it's not like it was a sideline play where the back shoulder throw is the only throw to make.  this was a farging crossing pattern where an accurate quarterback hits the guy in stride so he can run after the catch.  should he have made the catch?  yes.  even if he would've made the catch, his YAC would've been cut down because of having to turn back to catch it.  hit the mother farger in stride.

That's the thing. I don't want to listen to any of them after a loss, a win, a tie, practice, the birth of their first child, whatever. I just want to see these brain damaged millionaires do their friggin' jobs for three hours a week.

The man. The myth. The legend.

Exactly. What game were you people watching? I could have gotten that ball to him with more touch and I'm a noodle-armed choir boy.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

Let them eat bootstraps.

the mcnabb homers know no bounds.

fact is tony romo is 10x better than him at this point. let that sink in.

No one is saying the throw shouldn't have been better. It should have.


The ball still hit the WR in both of his hands, and he should have caught it.



How is that concept hard to grasp?


Just as jewboy will say homers will find anyway to defend McNabb, the haters will try and find any reason to hate.

the ball was uncatchable not because of how far behind him it was but because he threw it 1000 miles per hour from ten inches away

Well if McNabb had won 2 SBs already I'm sure he could say anything he wanted and people wouldn't give a farg.  When the team loses and you come out with that typical bullshtein after the game is when shtein starts to hit the fan.  His on field play is one thing.  People should be used to it after ten seasons.  It's what he says after the game that just compounds the situation that puts me over the ledge.
