Eagles Season - Thank Goodness That's Over

While theoretically not eliminated from the playoffs, we can pretty much call this season over for the Eagles. Happiness is a train wreck that you don't have to watch anymore. Simply put, if the Giants win one more game, we are eliminated from the playoffs.

If by some stroke of madness, the Giants were to get swept in the last 4 games, the Eagles would still need to win ALL their games AND hope that Detroit, Minnesota & Arizona all go .500 for the rest of the season. And that still doesn't keep them from getting eliminated.

Under these conditions, here's what I would do: Put McNabb on Injured Reserve for the rest of the season and let the rookie get some snaps. This doesn't preclude McNabb coming back during the next camp and "winning" back his starting job.
