Having an 8.1 average in a passing offense is pretty damn good if you ask me.

That would be a WTF moment for me... And I wouldn't be able to get over it unless Jimmy Clausen turned out to be the franchise quarterback we needed all along.

If we traded down, picked up multiple day 1 and day 2 picks and selected Jimmy Clausen (among other players) sure that'd be fine by me.

Not sure how much McNabb would like that though

I think what will more realistically happen is our 4th or 5th round selection will be a QB

So at #4 I am predicting a safety!!! How you get steamrolled by Jacobs and then come back the next season with a tongue ring.

No, that was a monkey.

Good presser, McNabb saying all the right things. I like that he's already working out with the team.

He also didn't give a definitive answer regarding an extention, but the answers he gave to most of the reporters questions were no nonsense.

I thought it to be coincidental McNabb responded to a reporters question about a burden being lifted as a result of the trade. His response was exactly what I thought he was going to say, what burden?......I've never felt any burden.

That O was also inconsistent and was addicted to the big play like a man on crack.

What O?

[SirClintonPortis]

On JT show.
McNabb saying that he can help the O-line by releasing the ball sooner to stave off the blitz.
McNabb giving an example of establishing running the ball helping out the O. Run for 3, 5, 8 yds and then 25yds, and then hit them with a screen because the LBs are going into the holes. Then the play action action game opens up.

McNabb trying to defend JC. Says that he's actually smart. Then says all qbs are smart. Says he'll flourish with his next opportunity because he knows what's on the line.

The Eagles O. The convo was initially about McNabb's performance as an Eagle.

McNabb also said he told the guys(unnamed WRs) lets get on the field and throw and their response was "I'm there" I may not have the exact quote, but sounds like he is trying to get out there with our receivers. That's gotta be a good thing.

Landry would be the dude with a pet monkey lmao!
