The thing is the routes he was running in that game, he wasn't capable of doing them with cramps. I find it hard to hate on him, because he gave the team a huge boost when they needed it, you don't cut someone who comes up that big for you in a key spot in the Super Bowl.
I'm just shocked at the Eagles training staff not having the players more prepared for the heat (I know it was cold all week) but they should've had them hydrated. Kearse had cramps too, and wasn't anywhere near as effective as he could've been.

Kearse stayed out there Pinkston didnt. He had the one catch for 40 yards and 3 more for 42. Good game for him i guess. It doesnt the negate the fact that hes plain and simple not a soldier. And unfortunatley I have come to the conclusion that McNabb is too arrogant to be a Superbowl winner. The thing is all great quarterbacks motivate they're team. He sulks, he mopes, he looks like he doesnt care. The simple fact that To is barking at him on the sideline and hes acting like its not even sinking in. The pocket was collapsing on him but noooo "I'm not a SCRAMBLING QB". Get over yourself.

Kearse stayed out there but wasn't effective, Pinkston couldn't go vertical like he wanted. Pinkston isn't as tough as TO, but he has played with numerous injuries this season. I think he gets a bad rap for things, where the good is overlooked. I think without Pinkston making those key grabs early on, the Eagles aren't as close as they are in the end.

This is a common complaint about Donovan, and I never see it. Donovan's the leader of the team, and when things go bad he gets frustrated but that doesn't mean he takes hope away from the rest of the team. He still goes back on the field and makes them believe there's still a chance to win.
He was put in an extremely difficult situation where he had to throw 51 passes against one of the best defensive minds in NFL history. He made mistakes, but all the pressure was on his shoulders, when he could've benefitted from some semblance of a running attack.
He didn't scramble much, and maybe he could've changed things if he did.. but the Patriots were ready just in case he decided to take off.
I won't badmouth Donovan McNabb, because he's the best QB that the Eagles have ever had, and if the Eagles can't win a Super Bowl with him, they probably never will.

The major difference is TO was shot up with painkillers prior to the game. They're different people, capable of different things. What TO did last night was miraculous, but I'm not going to be hard on Pinkston just because TO did something probably no other player in sports (this side of Jack Youngblood) would be capable of doing.

The Eagles played a helluva game. For all the talk of the Pats blowing them out, the Eagles showed enough heart to make the city proud.
McNabb on the other hand...  |

Watching the post game show they broke down his ratings for the first and fourth quarter his rating was in the 40's, in the second and third quarters the rating was 126 and 130. I don't know if there's a story behind that or not.

He got more of an ovation than the entire Sixers.

And by Byron Leftwich I meant Brian Westbrook.

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. - Jeremiah Trotter smiled that big grin he flashes when he knows something you don't know.
Trotter, whose one-year contract with the Eagles expires March 1, was talking about that impending free agency, when he grinned the grin.
"Let me just say it like this," he said. "I plan on being back here. I'm very confident I'll be back."
Trotter and the Eagles broke up once and it was ugly.
Somehow, some way through the grace of the NFL, they got back together again this year and it was good, for both of them.
If they don't keep this together this time, they're both crazy.
Trotter is the perfect middle linebacker for coordinator Jim Johnson's defense, and Johnson's defense is the perfect system for Trotter.
Now if that little issue called money can be worked out, then you can expect an announcement of a new deal in the next couple of weeks.
"They have had some talks with my agent," Trotter of Jim Sexton, who was in Jacksonville this week for the Super Bowl. "I really haven't thought about it much. I'm still in a whirlwind from the season. I'm going to go to the Pro Bowl, bring my family to Hawaii for a week, relax and when I get back hopefully we'll get started with it then."

Hey he delivered a punishing blow in an illegal pick play.  What can I say... FredEx was closed on Super Bowl Sunday.
