The panthers won game with a cheap shot on a downed quarterback. There is not much glory in that. It affected the entire game afterward.

The quarterback was not downed, the whistle had not blown yet, you play until the whistle is blown in the NFL.

I don'think it was cheap shot. From what I saw MsNabb got pushed, fell back and then was downed.

You do realize that the reason they didn't call it a late hit was because McNabb wasn't down right?

He was fair game.

Please! They did nothing more than anyone else has done during the year. Carolina showed up and played good, old fashioned, smash mouth football and won. McNabb could have cowboyed up and returned but was tired of getting his butt handed to him. He sat out instead.

BTW, I saw the hit in question and I do believe the defender should have been penalized. But that does not excuse McNabb's performance prior.

It is especially funny to hear Eagles fans whine about a "cheap shot". The same people who cheered as Michael Irvin lay motionless on the carpet at the Veterans’ stadium. The same fans that loved Buddy Ryan headhunting kickers in nearly every game he coached.

I'm not a Panther fan but would willingly cheer for any team that plays the Eagles. The only thing better than a cheesy Eagles loss is the whine that follows.
