It’s gotten much healthier since that Oakland game. Starting LG Too Herremans is back, Jason Peters is back. They’ve done a good job with edge rushers, but have been susceptible up the middle.

Peters got banged up during the Dallas game after his ankle was rolled up on… but he came back to play in that game and basically shut down Demarcus Ware, so I’d be pretty surprised if he wasn’t able to play this week.

Like I said Peters came back during the Dallas game so I would assume he would. Samuel also came back during that game so I would say yes. I’m not sure about Hobbs, but he’s been the 4th corner so… I don’t know that it would matter that much. They keep saying Westbrook will play, but then again they said that last week. So who knows?

Andy Reid said on Monday that he’d play unless something unforeseen happens.

He’ll play a couple snaps. 2 or 3.

I don’t know. The Eagles offense has been so hit or miss this year. They’re always going to look to throw the ball first and if McNabb is feeling it that day then I think they generally can be successful against anyone. But they’ve been very up or down this year. We can usually see if McNabb is crisp and accurate before the end of the first quarter.

Definitely attack the linebackers with underneath passes to the tight end. Our linebacking group has been decimated by injury this season, starting with the tough loss of MLB Stewart Bradley, who was supposed to be a stop-gap on defense for us this season.

and Trent Cole is not an acceptable answer. Everybody knows he’s a beast.

Yeah he’s fine. He’ll be returning punts. Jeremy Maclin will probably be returning kickoffs.

I don’t really. I guess I was hoping he’d be a big red zone presence thanks to his size. I thought he’d become a pretty important part of the offense, but then again I didn’t forsee Brent Celek having the kind of break out year he’s having.

It’s about 50-50, from what I’ve seen.

The simple fact is, and this often gets overlooked, McNabb is not very good in the 4th quarter when the team is losing. He’s not John Elway or Philip Rivers. He has tremendous tools, but lacks a bit of heart.

There is a rift between Eagles fans who appreciate McNabb, and those that want to move on and see what we have with Kevin Kolb.

Those that appreciate McNabb realize just how hard it is to find a good QB in the NFL, and they know that Reid/McNabb have been a successful tandem over the years. They don’t see a need to replace a quarterback who knows the system, and has proven that he can win in that system. Either that, or they are old enough to remember the pre-McNabb era and don’t want to go back.

Those that are anti-McNabb are tired of his inconsistent play and confusing tendencies. It’s not that these people are spoiled – it’s just that they’ve seen the same mental lapses time and time again, and they have grown frustrated. You can only be a great QB for so long in this league, and these people are starting to question if that era has passed for McNabb. It doesn’t help that Kevin Kolb looked competent in our offense for a few games this season.

I read that if he was out today it was going to be because of his ankle and not the concussion…and the ankle isn’t supposed to be bad enough to keep him out.

He pretty much never practices. We don’t even report it any more.

No. The vast majority of them would not.
