For a few weeks, I was rooting for Philly to win it all. But that was more because I wanted to shame McNabb.
For years I've been hearing BS about how McNabb carried the Eagles, and what a highroad taking warrior leader he was. I would've loved to see them win the Super Bowl the year after he was traded.
But the way the Shannahans have treated him in Washington kinda changes my stance. I think he's been shamed plenty this year. And I love it. Eagles winning a Super Bowl might cause him to kill himself.
The reality is, though, that the Eagles don't have a shot at the Super Bowl. Not a knee-jerk reaction against Vick or that offense. Rather, they just have too many young pups on defense, especially in that secondary. I could see Drew Brees or Matt Ryan eating them alive.
