McNabb blogs again, controversy to follow?

Not likely... fairly generic stuff from McNabb, but it was interesting to read what he said about Desean Jackson simply because he never really talked about the kid in mini camp.

He lists some of the usual questions he's gotten and his answers

Q: Did the team do enough this offseason to compete for a Super Bowl?

A: We have enough to compete right now. If there is a chance to continue improving our roster after June 1 than we should look at that too.

Q: Without any new offensive weapons, how will the team improve this year?

A: Having L.J. Smith healthy is a good start. We need to be more productive in the Red Zone and that's a part of the field where the tight end is crucial. When L.J. was hurt last year we seemed to get away from that too much.

Q: What about DeSean Jackson?

A: He impressed me with his speed and ability to catch the ball. Hopefully he will be able to shorten the field for us with his return ability on special teams, and stretch the field on offense with his speed.

I suppose the June 1 line is interesting. Clearly McNabbb is still looking for more pieces.

That is a totally innocuous comment

There is no risk in this comment whatsoever. If the Eagles don’t make a roster move after June 1, then it can easily be said, by anyone, that “we looked.” After June 1, someone will say “let’s see what happens in training camp” and this same headline will be posted.

I just cant see this being news, even, say, in Denver, where we know the WR situation is really dicey.

mcnabb is better off by not rocking the boat. he’s in a lose-lose situation with the philly media anyways. no matter what happens after 2009, just focus on kicking ass next season and bring home the ring!
