Donovan McNabb is a whiny, coddled Latino that eats Jewish babies.

It was just reported on CSN that McNabb just went out to the mall and shot an asian baby in the parking lot.

One less bad driver to worry about.  

RE: McNabb

I'm still a fan and always will be.  I think the Whitlock article puts an excellent perspective on his comments that most people probably wouldn't consider, myself included.  But his interview isn't the issue.  The issue is that McNabb is not and for the most part, has never really gotten the full support of ownership and the front office to be successful and I think McNabb is about fed up.  7.5 out of 8 years, McNabb has been asked to throw the ball 35-40 times a game to crap recievers.  He's been asked to run around behind the los for 14 seconds until a reciever can get open.  He's been asked to take off running and make plays and pick up first downs.  He's been asked/expected to win the Indy 500 while driving a Pinto.  

Phanatic's quote is spot on imo:

With all this crap going on I had the feeling Monday night and I have it now that McNabb is thinking "for who for what" when he goes out there. His coaching staff can't call a game properly and have built a team around their franchise QB without a receiver that can even beat the jam. Why the heck should he kill himself really. He'll bide his time and go be successful somewhere else...

I think McNabb has given a lot more to the Eagles than the Eagles have given to him.  Is he rich?  Yeah.  But I think McNabb is one of the few athletes who's prime motivation for playing isn't money.  He wants to win but has reached the point where he's not willing to lay it all on the line anymore for an organization that seems content with just making the playoffs and selling tickets.

Trade him to da bears for 3 # 1's

that's a lot of trading down for qb's and douchebag projects from saginaw valley

yeah but some even question his desire to win. ive heard before how ppl think win or lose mcnabb doesnt care.

[Sgt PSN]

I think that's just his demeanor. If he didn't care then he wouldn't have stayed in and played on a broken leg against the Cardinals.  He wouldn't have come back for the playoffs that same year and he wouldn't have toughed it out for the first 9 games of 06 when he had a hernia. 

I also think that he realized early in his career, if not before even coming into the league, that throwing an int can be overcome.  Losing a game can be overcome.  He doesn't sweat his mistakes.  It's frustrating to see him act very nonchalant about things sometimes but that's just the way he is.  Some players need to hype themselves up before the game and during it.  He doesn't.  Never has, never will.  Everyone in Philly should be used to that by now. 

[shorebird]

Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie and head coach Andy Reid have failed to properly support McNabb. The one year they provided McNabb with a legitimate No. 1 receiver (Terrell Owens), he threw 31 TDs and just nine interceptions and led the Eagles to within a field goal of winning Super Bowl XXXIX.

Lurie got away with being embarrassingly cheap because Donovan's young legs compensated for the lack of playmakers in the passing game and a mediocre offensive line.

Man, I've never read any truer words in the press.

[Rome]

I don't see how this latest bitch ass outburst is any different than the meltdowns he's had in the past.

It's all noise and personally I couldn't care less about him or his troubles.  Either you win or you're gone.  No hard feelings, mama's boy.

[SD_Eagle5]

It's all noise and personally I couldn't care less about him or his troubles.  Either you win or you're gone. 

Same here and that's the bottom line. He's the reason they're 0-2 right now.

Regardless of if he's traded/released/retires tomorrow he'll go down as one my all time favorite Eagles, but like Rhodes used to say "its time to shtein or get off the shteinter". So put up or shut up Donovan.

[reese125]

McNabb has been asked to throw the ball 35-40 times a game to crap recievers.  He's been asked to run around behind the los for 14 seconds until a reciever can get open.  He's been asked to take off running and make plays and pick up first downs.  He's been asked/expected to win the Indy 500 while driving a Pinto.

No:
He's asked to run the west coast offense.
He's asked to release the ball before the WR's make their break
He's asked to check down when all else fails
He's supposed to throw with some accuracy and efficiency on a consistent basis after 20 years of playing football (not saying he hasn't alot of games, but its overwhelming how many times he overthrows and underthrows to wide open WR's). No other top QB has those kind of mechanics

He chooses to be the play maker on the majority of the 40 pass plays plays because of his scrambling ability inside and outside of the pocket. He holds on to the ball too long, and is forced to run around (which he could do very well), and is able to find an open receiver after 10 seconds of doing so. Are the receivers getting open open all the time? No. Have they been open on alot of the replays over the years? Absolutely

With all this crap going on I had the feeling Monday night and I have it now that McNabb is thinking "for who for what" when he goes out there. His coaching staff can't call a game properly and have built a team around their franchise QB without a receiver that can even beat the jam. Why the heck should he kill himself really. He'll bide his time and go be successful somewhere else...

Dont believe it for a second. Now we blame the coaching staff for giving McNabb every opportunity to make a throw and make a play? McNabb had that feeling of "for who for what" after the 1st game of the season? Please

Hold yourself accountable or beat it

[shorebird]

I'll say this also, anyone who thinks racism doesn't exsist and isn't present in every stadium in football is a DMF. All you have to do is look to last year at the linc when people were sent out of the stadium for holding the take the ***** out and put in the *** sign.

The timing for this interview couldn't be worse. Every year for the last three or four years it's been some kind of stupid shtein compounded by injury that makes the world around him a media circus. I'm just as pissed as anyone about going 0-2, especailly when the last game was a loss to the skins along with some of the most terrible coaching and play calling we've ever seen in the Reid era, but all this is really starting to get blown out of proportion, as usual. Two games into the season and McNabbs career is over, he's a racist himself, and we will be lucky to win 4 games.

It's all noise and personally I couldn't care less about him or his troubles.  Either you win or you're gone.

How can you lay all the blame on McNabb when Ried is playing him when he should be sitting and seeing the gameplan/run pass ratio that was called Monday Night? Thats just being narrow minded. Ried deserves most if not all of the blame for this 0-2 start, for playing McNabb and starting the season without a compatant punt returner.

[reese125]

Shorebird, you can blame Reid for the first game and I'll blame McNabb for the 2nd. Fair?

[ice grillin you]

yeah but some even question his desire to win

its not a desire to win that he doesnt possess its a hatred of losing...he also has a huge probelm dealing with adversity...when everything is going smooth hes nerdy happy go lucky unfunny donovan...but the minute times get tough hes sulky crybaby give up and blame all the fans for my problems donovan

ill also take the desire to win thing one step further...his hatred of the people who booed him at the draft and his wip critics and eagle fans in general causes him to not wanna win as much as he should...deep down in places he would never admit too there is a desire in him to not wanna win a superbowl because it would give the fans what they want

[SD_Eagle5]

Reid shares the blame on the sidelines. On the field its on McNabb. He's the biggest underachiever out there now. Who should Reid be starting at QB? Feeley - a career backup with a broken hand? Kolb? McNabb is the only option, he's being paid to perform. The whole "he's still rehabbing from an injury" is nonsense. He did fine last season when he missed 8 games the previous season due to a sports hernia. Granted if they have a competent PR in game 1 they probably win, but if McNabb is performing to even 75% of his normal level they score more points and those muffed punts are a non issue.
