Heck Yeah
It's late, but just finished watching the game. Damn, that was sweet.
As long as the Eagles can't be in the playoffs this year, knocking out the team that got us last year is a great way to go out.
And boy, McNabb. What a great game. And that goal line stick by Bradley ... that was sweet. Nice debut, youngster.


No doubt about it, McNabb had a great game.
He and the coaches need to have a serious discussion this off-season about what preparation during the week leads to games like this past weekend.
And before you say "it was the knee, the knee wasn't healed," all one need do is go back to the beginning of last season, before the knee injury to see that McNabb was playing bad.
Is it a crime to appreciate your QB when he plays well and express anger when he plays poorly? Well, if you believe the goal of playing football is to win championships and the superbowl, no.
Anyhow, it's no surprise that when the Eagles QB -- whoever it may be -- plays well, the Eagles win. We need consistency from that position and if Donovan and the coaches think he can provide it, great.
Let's see how McNabb plays next week. We need consistency, not one good week, two bad. Sorry to be so negative, but it's the truth.

Sweet mercy, this strange idea that McNabb was having a bad 2006 before the injury just won't die. Yes, things got a little wonky there for a couple weeks, but McNabb was on pace to have a GREAT season last year before the knee: http://www.igglesblog.com/iggles_blog/2007/12/how-quickly-peo.html

Just read the first response to that post for an excellent and true response. McNabb can have the best stats in the league but if he's not leading the team to wins it's all for nothing.
Too often we settle for field goals (with McNabb) when we should be getting six. However, we see what he can do -- like last week; He needs to do that every week.
