let's name some ...

Peyton Manning (numerous playoffs)
Jake Delhomme (super bowl)
Rich Gannon ( raiders should have won that game, if it wasn't for the "tuck rule" .. )
Kurt Warner (super bowl)

pretty good list there .

If the Eagles get a quality WR to replace T.O this offseason there is no way I cant see them being conteders...mostly cuz of McNabb I dont know why but since T.O everyone hates on Donovan this is a Pro-Bowl MVP esque QB were talkin about here..why all the hate...cuz he isnt YO YO DIZ BE YA NIGGA DONOVAN FOR DA CAMPBELLS SOUP EAT UP OR ILL BUS THAT CAP YO!

i know philly is a tough town ..

how could a city with donovan mcnabb, allen iverson, and bobby abreu playing in their own city be griping about not having quality sports teams in their city ?

maybe it's those philly chessesteaks talking ...

no doubt... but he did it in the biggest game of his life... that has to count for DOUBLE points... he imploded on the biggest stage of the year...

I respect DNabb... I thought he would suck coming out of Syracuse and into the NFL...BUT I WOULDN'T HAVE BOO'D his ass at MSG on draft day LIKE STUPID PHILLY FANS... but I didn't think he'd be great...

BUT... like everything... players are only based on the regular season... CASE IN POINT: TOM BRADY IS THE BEST QUARTERBACK EVER... but HE's not because he doesn't put up Peyton numbers in the regular season... THEREFORE, I think DNabb earned my respect because he puts up the numbers but he blows dick in the playoffs like PEYTON!!!

I'm done...

I think one thing Donovan and the Eagles have been missing throughout their Buffalo Billsesque post-season run is a running game. No offense to Bryan Westbrook, Duce Staley, and the other backs who have come through, but none of these guys are doing very much to keep the pressure off Mcnabb. A big part of that is on Andy Reid too.

As for the Super Bowl, I think Mcnabb's screwup is exaggerated; yes, he made some mistakes, but it's not all on him. 3 INTs is alot, but it looks like alot less when you see that he had 51 pass attempts. Down 10 points with 9 minutes to play isn't a favorable situation for anyone and Mcnabb simply couldn't get them close enough for a tying field goal. Nevermind that he was playing well all game long. Nevermind that New England's defense may have been that good to shut down the eagles. Point the finger at Mcnabb for not being able to pull a miracle out of his ass with average to above average talent around him.
