McNabb Benched In Defeat

Donovan McNabb's career in Philadelphia is falling apart and could be coming to an end. In a disastrous 36-7 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, McNabb was benched after a terrible first half of play in which he completed only eight passes in 18 attempts. He threw two interceptions and fumbled one.

McNabb has thrown five interceptions and has fumbled twice in the last two games for the Eagles. The Eagles are now 0-2-1 in their last three, with McNabb playing a big role in each defeat.

Kevin Kolb came in relief of McNabb and was not much better. Kolb went 10 for 23 for 73 yards and two picks. His only excuse is that he is a second year player, McNabb is a 10 year vet.

The Eagles are now 5-5-1, and are entrenched in last place in the NFC Eastern division. It's unknown whether McNabb will play on Thanksgiving when the Eagles face the Arizona Cardinals.
