Donovan McNabb is still the franchise player for the Philadelphia Eagles. He has been a member of the Eagles franchise for 10 years now and still the Super Bowl win has eluded him - not all his fault. Many years McNabb would have to create all by himself and throw to average receivers at best.
Vick could be a distraction and not worth the trouble. Until Vick does something on the field he isn't worth talking about. I think he has potential to get back to a stud QB, but it's going to take time and a lot of hard work.
The Eagles will have to worry about staying healthy all season. Donovan McNabb played all 16 games in 08' but has been injury prone the last 5 season or so.
The benching of McNabb was the turning point of the 08' season and gave the Eagles the spark they needed. The eventually lost in the playoffs but the optimism to advance further in the playoffs in 09' is there.
The Eagles have a good running game with Brain Westbrook and LeSean McCoy with average receivers. The Eagles never had a really number one receiver since Terrell Owens, that didn't end well as we all know.
New Orleans won easily by a score of 48-22. The Eagles are now 1-1 in a very competitive division, where every win will matter.
Unfortunately, it seems as if the team must be prepared to play without McNabb in week 3, as it's been stated in early reports that McNabb will not suit up for the team's week 3 game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
The team should be lucky to have such an opponent in week 3, for a game they couldn't win would present serious challenges down the road. Will we see more of Michael Vick or will they continue with Kolb? I'd imagine Kolb continues as Vick's probably still a bit rusty. - 31493
