McNabb updates condition | Philadelphia Inquirer | 09/21/2009
"I wish I had an answer, but I don't," he said. "I feel pretty good, better than last Monday. It's one day at a time. I think there is a process that is going on, and the progression makes you feel confident that things are going to be better. Hopefully, it will be quicker than later. I'm looking forward to being back out on the field."

there’s no way he’ll play any time soon with an injury like that. the other day reid was talking about waiting for his rib to get sticky so that muscle starts to build around it when its back in place. one sack and it’s gonna be unstuck and possible puncture a lung! my two cents is, not until week 6 will we see mcnabb again.

I say after the bye… that gives him a whole 4 weeks to heal. He’ll be back against the Bucc’ s. I personally would like him starting at least for the division games which would be week 7 vs. the Skins… but I doubt it will take that long.

After the bye for sure

The Eagles are just playing games with the Chiefs at this point – they want them to have to prepare for the possibility that McNabb could play. There’s no need to risk the season on a game the Eagles should be capable of easily winning even with Kevin Kolb at QB. Give Donny unitl after the bye, he’ll be fully healed and ready to rock the Bucs.

I refuse to except the Chiefs as an easy win. There are no easy wins in the NFL… we lost to some teams last year we shouldn’t have.. oh yeah.. and tied one!

The point is...

if we don’’t have enough confidence in Kevin Kolb to play well enough to beat the Chiefs at home, then he doesn’t even belong on the Eagles roster. I’m not risking McNabb’s health for the rest of the year on the the 3rd game of a 16 game schedule.

I agree. I don’t think that McNabb should play until he is fully healthy. How much confidence can you have in a guy that only had one NFL start and played only one full game. Not to say he is not capable but we won’t be able to fully critize him until he has a little more experience under his belt. All I was saying is that no game in the NFL can be taken for granted.

You may not believe in easy games...

But there is a such thing as a bad team. The Chiefs might not be terrible, but they are rebuilding, and the Eagles are a legitimate playoff team…so I don’t think you’ll have a problem handling them with or without McNabb. I gotta admit, as a Giants fan I’m very interested to see how they utilize Vick in his first game.

Here’s to hoping McNabb gets healthy during his time off.

I'm not about JINXING my team

Last year alone:

Rams beat the Redskins and the Cowboys (two teams we lost to last year) and they were considered a horrible team.
The Bengals tied us and beat the Skins.
I could keep going… But there are some games that non-playoff teams beat play-off teams and those are just a few examples….

It definitely happens.

Teams lose focus, teams look past “lesser opponents”. But coming of the loss they just had against the Drew Brees’, I think they’ll be plenty humbled, plenty hungry, and ready to whoop on the poor (not so) unsuspecting Chiefs.
