McNabb off target
Donovan McNabb looks a lot worse Monday night than he did in the season opener against the Packers. The recevers aren't always open, but Donovan McNabb has missed many by a wide margin. I am reminded of Carson Palmer's recovery from ACL surgery last year.
Palmer's biggest problem wasn't getting back on the field and taking a hit. It was his accuracy. His mechanics had to be relearned post-surgery and Palmer missed throws he normally made. His completion percentage dropped 5%.
Donovan McNabb has never been a particularly accurate West Coast quarterback. He's only topped 60% in a season once in his career. I think the Eagles offense will find their way, but it's going to be tough if McNabb loses 5% like Palmer.

the eagles wrs are pure crap. i'm glad i wasted a draft pick on #76 on the depth chart, and deservedly so, reggie brown. that guy is junk.

I was wise to bench McNabb this week. I have McNabb, Kitna and Garrard in my deep league. Should I trade McNabb and if so what type of value should I look for in a trade?

This BITES!!! I need McNabb to produce this year for me. There was a run on QB's in my draft in the second so I grabbed McNabb after Manning, Brees, Palmer, and Brady were all picked before me. Man never believe what a player does in preseason! All the reports were McNabb looked great, well his first 2 regular games he has looked horrible! I am actually thinking about starting my backup QB Campbell from now on till McNabb can pull things together.

In a PPR league (1 pt per reception), would you trade Boldin for Kevin Jones and Santonio Holmes?

gregg, seriously...talk about how horrible the eagles wr's are. talk about their patheticism. talk about making up words about how bad they are because they're that bad. talk about how the wr's who wouldn't make a special teams on any other team in the league end up playing 5th wr and therefore more than the no. 1 wr for the eagles. talk about pop music.
