Ruben Brown on Donovan McNabb

Guard Ruben Brown, a nine-time Pro Bowler talks about Eagles QB Donovan McNabb.

Brown, who sat out last season due to injury after spending four seasons in Chicago, said he is trying to convince Chicago coach Lovie Smith that McNabb would be a good fit in the Windy City.

“I’d like to see him go to Chicago, I think it’s the perfect fit for him. The Bears are a smidgen away from getting back to the playoffs and getting into the Super Bowl and hopefully winning it. What would be greater than Donovan McNabb winning a Super Bowl with the Chicago Bears, when he’s from Chicago?”

Brown says McNabb, who is still under contract with the Eagles, deserves better than the reception he’s had in his 10 seasons in Philadelphia.

“I think for a guy like that to have to put up with all of the scrutiny that he’s put up with, being in Philadelphia — eventually, you’ve got to say enough is enough,” said Brown.

“For him, I don’t know. I don’t know how he feels. But me, personally looking at it, I’m saying enough’s enough. Give the guy a break. He’s been a very successful quarterback. There’s a bazillion teams out there that would love to have a quarterback like him. With the Eagles not treating him like he should be treated, he should go home. Go to Chicago where they’ll definitely love him.”

Deion talks about Donovan McNabb

Deion on Donovan McNabb's future in Phili:

"I don't hate Philadelphia, I never said anything derogatory about Philadelphia. What I said about Philadelphia is that Donovan McNabb wants to leave. I think it's a beautiful city, but it's also a city that cheered when Michael Irvin was injured. That's my thoughts about the athletic realm of Philadelphia. But I never said I hate the city. I think it's a beautiful city."

If it's so beautiful, why does he think McNabb wants to leave?

"Maybe it's because they booed him on draft day,maybe it's because they continuously doubt him when he's taken them to four [actually five] NFC championship games. Maybe it's because no matter what he does, it's never enough. Maybe that's the reason."

McNabb has always publicly said that he wants to finish his career in Philadelphia, even though Sanders has said several times this season that the quarterback wants to leave the Eagles.

"Donovan is a well-spoken, articulate man, he does a great job representing himself professionally."

But Sanders still thinks McNabb wants out.

"I'm telling you what I know and not what I've heard," Sanders said before admitting that neither McNabb nor his mother, Wilma, have ever said to him that the quarterback wants to go elsewhere.

Just a thought:

Deion I think there is no chance Phili will let Donovan go after what he did after his benching.

No way!

"A Wild" Wild Card Weekend

The team who no one thought would make the playoffs.

Donovan McNabb and the Philadelphia Eagles took down the Minnesota Vikings 26-14.

They held Adrian Peterson to 83 yards on 20 carries.

But Peterson scored two key touchdowns.

He had one 40 yard TD run early in the game and besides that the Eagles shut him down.

The Eagles have won seven straight playoff openers.


Look Ahead:

The Eagles will head to New York this Sunday.

The Eagles and Giants split the season series.
The Baltimore Ravens beat the Miami Dolphins in Miami 27-9.

They forced Chad Pennington to throw four interceptions and Patrick Cobbs to fumble once.

Ed Reed played great, he had two interceptions, one which he returned for a touchdown.

The Dolphins only had 13 turnovers the whole season, but you can never win when you turnover the ball five times.

Especially in the playoffs.

Look Ahead:

The Ravens will head to Tennessee to take on the Titans this Saturday.

San Diego defeated the Indianapolis Colts Saturday Night 23-17 in OT, on the legs of little Darren Sproles.


Look Ahead:

The Chargers will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Pittsburgh on Sunday, in the late game.




Arizona took care of buisness against the Falcons with a 30-24 and there first playoff win since 1998.

Edgerrin James looked fresh and the WR duo of Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin really shined.


Look Ahead:

They will take on the Carolina Panthers in Carolina next Saturday night.
