Golden Wheels Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 When McNabb got benched earlier this year, one of McNabb's critics couldn't wait to post on the wall the same old diatribes about McNabb running too much earlier in his career and being overrated. Tim Anderson's Lunch Pail was dead on when he said "His career TD/INT ratio is 185:89. His passer rating over the last FOUR years is 93.78. And he has only had a true number one receiver for one season in Philadelphia. Every time you count this guy out, he comes right back." link to original thread McNabb & the Eagles are back in the playoffs after bring benched in the first half of the loss to the Baltimore Ravens. He led the Eagles to four victories in their final five games. Even though the Eagles have Brian Westbrook, coach/GM Andy Reid hasn't done much to get more depth at RB or to emphasize a running game. With the exception of TO, McNabb hasn't had any star wide receivers as targets. Yet in his 10 seasons in Philly, McNabb has 29,320 career yards along with 194 touchdowns. He's been to four NFC Championship Games and one Super Bowl. Just wondering what his critics are thinking now on the eve of the playoffs?
Just Jack Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Just wondering what his critics are thinking now on the eve of the playoffs? They're thinking of digging out those #5 jerseys they put in storage when he was benched.

LynchMob23 Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Add in the fact a guy like Manning has a 1st round starter outside wide, in the slot @ wr, in the slot @ te, running back...if you give McNabb premier wideouts, a better TE than LJ and another RB with Westbrook, he'd be lethal.

Im not a critic I would just love to see him in Buffalo bring back that winning spirit/Veteran leadership and Teach edwards real tangible things about the position. You see what he does in Philly with only a west brook imagine what he could do with a lynch/Jackson Evans/Reed
