McNabb's blog: Please send help
Donovan McNabb has taken his pitch for more weapons to the blogosphere and intensified it. In his blog on yardbarker.com, the Eagles quarterback wrote Monday that he hoped his team would 'secure some playmakers in all three phases of the game' during the off-season, continuing a campaign he started near the end of the season. Maybe some of those playmakers are already on the roster but have struggled with injuries, myself included, that have held us back a little," McNabb blogged. He used the New England Patriots as an example of a team that "went outside their locker room and stocked up on playmakers last year."

Yep, I'd say the horse collar photo aptly depicts his situation!

Sure, everyone hopes to get better players over the off-season. Putting in on a blog is just being whiny. Why not just thrown a temper tantrum in front of everyone?

Sure thing Don just offer to restructure your fat contract so the team has more monrey to pick up the players you want because this is all about how you want to win right?

Yup Donovan; let's look at your situation. A couple of years ago, you went and asked T.O. to join the team and help you out. You, Westbrook, and T.O. could have been the new "triplets". Regardless of TO gettin hurt at the end of the season, he was a big-time part of your team making it to the Super Bowl, a task you couldn't do in SEVERAL attempts.
TO plays in the Super Bowl despite doctor's orders and would have got the MVP if you hadn't have been "dry heaving" and throwing up "ducks" in the red zone.
Contract time comes and you "go to bat" for Westbrook but not TO. You had help and you let it go to Dallas where they look pretty primed for a Super Bowl.
I guess TO wasnt that bad after all.

BigBooth...no one has ever said that TO couldn't play. Would you go to bat for someone that calls you out after a TEAM loss and says that he is the only reason anything good has happened in Philly? I am an Eagles fan and was happy when they got TO and not happy that they didn't try harder to keep him. The tactics that he took to get out of Philly were crappy and he made his own bed...and yes that bed is in the Playoffs this year with a better than average shot at the Super Bowl. I would love to see him go back ONLY so the Patriots could beat HIM again. :o)

Isn't Donovan the same guy that said that the Patriots need to give him back their rings for winning the SB that yr. Hmm...Donovan don't speak about the Patriots you just might jinxx them w/your Eagles' losing ways!! Much success in yr #2 recovering from knee surgery since this yr was not so much.

How many teams have a better QB than McNabb.............not many

Not many is right...McNabb is still better than at least 20 other quarterbacks in this league...Why should he have to renegotiate his contract? He's worth what he is paid...Eagles have money, that have draft picks they could use in trades...It is not an obscene request to ask for some help...Eagles fan watched every game, we watched receivers who couldn't get open to save their lives...Westbrook can't carry this team forever there has to be someone legit who can be a forceful as TO off the line...
There is no arguing TOs talent, but it wasn't McNabb that made TO leave it was TO...He signed a contract, they cried when he said "He's just trying to feed his family" and that he needed more money...I was a big supporter while he was here, but am not sad that he is gone...He fits well with that silly star on his back.

McNabb is no Brady so playmakers is not the answer to a SB title, replacing the QB is.

some qb's play an entire career without a ring. an even rarer occurrence, is a qb that plays his entire career without some offensive weapons.
he's had some rbs, but has mcnabb even had more than TO for 10 games?

McBlab strikes again. He's right though. Maybe some new blood is needed. Let's start with the quarterback position.

Donnie Mac went to the NFC Championship with these WR's:
Torrance Small & Charles Johnson
Pinkston and Thrash
Pinky, G-Lew and Fred-Ex
He lost to:
Holt and Bruce
Keyshawn and Jurevicius
Steve Smith and Mushin Muhammad
Then he beat Atlanta with Peerless and Alge with the same Pinky G-Lew Fred-Ex line-up since TO was sidelined.
He makes the most out of a lousy line-up. Switch recievers in those NFC Championship games and the Eagles win them all.

C,mon MMI. Every year, McNabb won the playoff game(s) that led to the NFC Championship. You know you'd give up Grossman, Orton, Greise, Berrian, and Benson to get your hands on him. Let him throw to Olsen and Hester while Urlacher breaks necks and you guys walk to the Super Bowl....

True-aginst bad teams. He can't beat good teams, never could. The only reason they ruled the NFC east for those years is because the competition stunk. Now that they Boys and Giants are good, they eagles can't compete.
I would not give up grossman for him because that would be giving up a solid backup (not starter) for someone who is guaranteed to be injured at least once during the year and when he is healty he throws balls in the dirt half the time. So Grossman and McNabb are a wash in my opinion.

I agree tenfold BigBooth. TO, McNabb and Westbrook could've taken the NFL by storm for the next couple years if McNabb hadn't screwed it all up. As an Eagles fan, i can't stand McNabb and i can't wait till he gets traded before he's worth absolutely nothing. A true leader swallows his pride and looks within himself to see what HE can do as a LEADER to better his team. McNabb thinks his team isn't good enough for him. You could tell the way he hesitated to release the ball all season, not enough confidence in his receivers and too much confidence in himself to just pass the ball.
