Another win for Eagles!!

Yes I know I’m obsessed with the Eagles but I can’t help it.  For those of you who don’t know, the Eagles defeated the Redskins Sunday 33-25 but it was a close game.  I honestly thought that they were going to lose this game.  All I have to says is thank good for Brian Westbrook who is our running back.  I feel that he is basically saving this team as much as he can.  In Sunday’s game he finished with 20 carries for 100 yards and five receptions for 83 yards.  That’s just incredible.  He also gave the Eagles 21 points with three touchdowns.  McNabb actually stepped it up this week so I have to give at least some credit even though I don’t think that’s he’s been playing that well.  McNabb completed 20 of 28 passes for 251 yards and four touchdowns.  That’s not too bad.  I’m not saying that the Eagles are at 100% but I do think that they are improving which gives Eagles’s fans hopes for the playoffs.  Hopefully the Eagles can continue to win games and make it to the playoffs. 

McNabb speaks

I know I wrote about the Eagles before but I found this really important and interesting.  I found this articleabout how McNabb was saying that the team’s losing streak can’t all be blamed on him and he is only a piece of the puzzle.  I think he’s a little more than a piece of the puzzle.  I mean he is the quarterback.  That’s a major position and a big responsibility.  A lot of the offenses successes and failures have to do with what McNabb does.  I think he’s a huge part of why the Eagles haven’t been winning.  He threw two interceptions and had a fumble in the game against Dallas.  Dallas is just a team that you can’t make mistakes with that’s exactly what he did.  Two of the turnovers McNabb had lead to 14 points for Dallas in the first half.  I don’t really understand how McNabb isn’t taking more blame for his mistakes.  I think he’s a good quarterback but I just think that he’s lost his touch.
