On his blog over at Yardbarker, Donovan McNabb expressed embarrassment about how he and the Eagles have played thus far this season. Here’s an excerpt:
I’ve made mistakes and I’ve owned up to them. I’m sure that some of my teammates and coaches might feel that they also could have done better. But a play here and a play there is costing us precious division and conference games that can bite us down the stretch. We didn’t start playing well last year until it was too late. It’s not too late to turn it around now. But to do so, we have to be embarrassed enough as a team to do something about it.
I’m better than this and I’ll prove it. I know my team is too. Now we have to prove it.
McNabb will be without the services of Brian Westbrook and Reggie Brown this Sunday against the 49ers. Still, this is pretty much a must-win game for the Eagles, and I expect that he’ll play well.
