Fox Sports PROVED Rush's assertions immediately after the game proclaiming Donovan the BEST QB ever and a tribute to blackism. (OK, I embellish a mite)

They did say to the effect it was his win. didn't see the game but understand that the win was due to every factor except his ability! Am I right?

Nah, the Eagles defense as usual, won the game.

I like McNabb, though. This offense is badly put together. I think Rush was wrong, and wasn't really paying attention to the serious problems the Eagles offense has faced since preseason, with all the hold-outs.

McNabb is good, showed great potential and character in the course of his college and professional career. He just plays for a mediocre offensive team, poorly coached.

Rush stepped in it. I shed no tears.

A quarterback is as good as his coaching and support.

I think of Phil Simms, Bernie Testeverde and now Quincy Carter.

What were they like before Parcells?

McNabe was less than average if you ask me and they lost because the Redskins were worse! The Redskin quarterback kept missing open receivers!

I did not see the game.

I do know from reviewing available info that:
- the Eagles scored 20 offensive points, because 7 came from an INT return for a touchdown.
- One Eagles "drive" started at the Washington 18 because of a Philly INT of Ramsey.
- The remaining Eagles TD was a 70-yard, 11-play drive.
- One of Philly's FGs was a 52-yarder.
- One of McNabb's 2 INTs was returned to the 1 yard line, followed by a Skin TD.

The defense saved Donovan McNabb's bacon, as usual. The writers want to reserve a spot for him in Canton.

Exactly right! Collingsworth was peeing in his diaper he was lavishing so much praise on a crappy game from McNabb.

The most sickening thing was, IMMEDIATELY after the conversion-miss, loudmouth Chris Collingsworth bashing Limbaugh and praising McNabb while quoting his colleague James Brown who apparently said "We have come so far, why would we ever want to go back"?

McNabb was a total non-factor in this game. EXACTLY as Limbaugh said, the Philly DEFENSE carried this team. It is amazing that despite more than a dozen false-start penalties, Washington still came within 10 feet of sending it into an overtime they were sure to have won.

Philly will not only not repeat but will not even make the playoffs this year. McNabb will never lead his team to another NFC game or Super Bowl.
