Is anyone else surprised with how quickly the local media seem to be jumping back on the Donovan McNabb bandwagon? About a month ago, it was a near certainty that he would be gone by the end of the season. Now, I'm reading article after article about how D Mac is coming back.
As for my take on the situation, I'm pretty happy to see the team playing better over the last 4 games, but I'm still not sure that what we're seeing isn't much more than a team playing teams in compromised situations. The Cards had about 2 1/2 days to prep for the Thanksgiving Day game and they are horrible coming East. Then they faced a completely distracted Giants team, which we saw last week is a complete shell of itself without Plax. Last week, they played a team that has completely quit on their coach and had a Triple A QB at the helm. If you can tell that I'm not exactly back on the bandwagon, then you are pretty perceptive.
The Birds have a decent shot to win this week if the Skins continue their funk. However, if they show up ready to play, I expect the Birds' sloppy play to catch up to them this week, making next week's expected showdown to be a non event.
Yep, the negative PSP is back, baby!

you're a buzz kill. i notice you penned this crap after your beloved hockey team took one up the a## last nite. Why no mention?
Here we are in week 16 in the wide open NFL and you have the guts to say the Birds can't beat a Redskin squad that is in total disarray. Stop it, they absolutely beat this team and it sets up a tasty finale vs. the most disappointing team in the NFC. AND, if they get that one and some help they could win a playoff game. Shoot, in the 2008 NFL they could win more than a playoff game.
Here's what i can tell you, that colts team last nite is going nowhere fast. Giants are done too. So are the Cardinals and Bucs. Cowboys if they get in could be dangerous, same with our Birds. Falcons have a rookie QB, so they're finished. Panthers look like a football team.
Amen
