He’s the guy that threw for 354 yards and 2 TDs in yesterday’s 38-24 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He also ran for a touchdown. Well, he kinda fell forward for it. He’s now averaged 320 yards passing over the first 5 Eagles games and has crossed the goal line 14 times. He has the 3rd best QB rating in the NFL, the most passing yards, most passing TDs, and he doesn’t turn it over (not like he ever did).
It may be time to put him with Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Frankly, I’d take him over Brady, and for all the gyrations and playcalling that Manning does out there, McNabb is a force on the field this season. And he’s doing it all without his #1 wide reciever (Donte Stallworth) and without knowing whether his best weapon, Westbrook, is even going to play from week to week. McNabb’s making 100 yard recievers out of guys like Hank Baskett. He’s making LJ Smith a probable pro-bowler at tight end. And he’s just winning ball games, which is always the bottom line. The Eagles sit 4-1 with probably the best offense in the league, and this is with inconsistent playing time from 2 of their top 3 offensive weapons.
Give props to McNabb, this year’s frontrunner for the MVP award.
Amen brother.
I never forgot that this man was a Pro Bowler regularly before last year. T.O. must have been so jealous on the sidelines watching D-Mac run all over his boys.
