The ironic thing is that McNabb has always managed to go blameless throughout his career, and has been overrated, but when he actually has a legit excuse for some performance issues he gets all the blame.

He more than likely is at fault. I'm sure team trainers ask him if he's OK, can he go? Maybe he lost a lot of confidence in the team when they let Garcia go?Maybe both are to blame? The team and McNabb, but team comes first. Philly has been running their team a lot like NE runs theirs. Players can go but our team is our team!! Eventually it will catch up to you. Your team is only as strong as the players. If you keep letting good players go, one day the person responsible will regret their decisions. What if Garcia was still there? Do you think McNabb might say, or think to himself, "Garcia's got it....I don't have to be the man this Sunday"? Who's got his back now? Does he trust him enough to say,"I can't go today".

 Still as a Cowboy fan I wouldn't be surprised to see Philly jump back into the race in the next few weeks. I think the NFC East will be tight when its all said and done.

The receiver claim is valid.  Anytime Todd Pinkston leads your team in receptions, you have a major problem at the position.

But they don't make receivers 7 feet tall.  Last night, I lost count of the number of passes that receivers had to jump for that McNabb sailed above their head.  Add that count to the Curtis pass where he threw too wide, and he can take a ton of the blame for last night's loss.

As far the Trotter release, Omar Gaither has filled in extremely well in his absence.  Gaither was actually one of the few bright spots in last night's loss.  And hey, at least our defense is holding up a little bit.  (We allowed our first two offensive TDs of the season last night, but it's tough to completely shut down the opposition's offense when your defense is on the field for the majority of the game.)

But Donovan is seriously struggling right now, and he better get his act together.  I've had his back all of the previous years he's been here, but I honestly think that his job is in serious jeopardy if he doesn't start performing -- and winning.
