Bench this Bum McNabb

[ChuckSims]

Another interception thrown. Its October and he has zero TD passes. Rush was right.

It's the Chunky Soup curse!

Actually McNabb is doing OK. 9 for 13 for 62yds with 1 TD and 1 Int. He also had a long run called back because of a penalty. Bottom line is Eagles 10 to 0 right now.

[ChuckSims]

Make that 2 interceptions. That one led to a Wash TD. He has a 100 million dollar contract and is stinking up the place.

 

[wilheim]

Hey give the guy a break at least he made the tackle on the INT.

maybe good old rush knows more than people think. This f#$$ mcnabb is going to cost me a real big day...

 

[PatrickMcIrish]

Nice tackle by McNabb on his last interception!

Take that Rush!

 

[ChuckSims]

wilheim, LMAO! Collinsworth just commented on McNabb, "McNabb is having a hard time connecting on some pretty easy passes".

 

[LogansRun]

I look it at this way (despite the team's ineptitude this year): You're starting a new franchise and there are two qbs available in a draft, who do you select?
1. McNabb
2. Trent Dilfer

If you're Rush, you take Dilfer.

If you know anything about football, you take McNabb

 

[benstern]

Only one problem with that..Dilfer won the big game!!mcnabb has choked everytime he got close

 

[wilheim]

Ya think Dilfer would have picked up that 1st down at midfield?


WIL.

 

[benstern]

i know dilfer was a joke..theres no debate..Mcnabb is no champ either though. He is not even in the top ten in the league. I won huge on this game but can still say that he is overateddddddddddddd. It has nothing to do with color, he just is not as good as some people think.

 

[ChuckSims]

The Eagles have a tough schedule. They better win the division because they sure are not going to get in via the wild card.

Chuck - The league is so corporate. They don't want to bench a guy making that much because of his value to a mega-million dollar franchise. The McNabb situation reminds me of Kurt Warner last year - why has the guy totally lost it? I don't know, but the season can slip away while you wait for him to get it back. Who knows, some guys play hurt and lie and say they are fine. Eddie George put up embarrassing numbers trying to keep his consecutive game streak alive, and totally screwed his team. If you can spot it then a head coach should spot it too.

 

[ChuckSims]

Sampl497, you are right. Something major would have to happen for McNabb to be benched. He makes too much money and people pay money to see him play. If the Eagles make the playoffs and McNabb tanks again, the drum beats will grow louder to cut him lose.
