The soap opera that we refer to as the Philadelphia Eagles continues.
Is it just me, or does Andy Reid seem awfully smug and arrogant for a guy who finds his team sitting at 5-6 for the second year in a row.
Reid was at his sarcastic best this week in telling the assembled media that Donovan McNabb remains the Eagles starter and that he will remind the scribes of just that every day.
Gee, thanks Andy. But that’s not really the question. The question is who will start Sunday against the Seahawks. That is still up in the air, although all indications point to A.J. Feeley getting a second straight start.
McNabb did not practice again yesterday. That’s almost two weeks now since he was last on the field as he nurses a sprained ankle and bum thumb.
Our Bob Grotz says you can pretty much put the house on Feeley being the starter.
Either today or tomorrow Coach Andy likely will tell the masses through gritted teeth that Donovan is not 100 percent and that Feeley will get the start.
So what happens if Feeley lights up the Seahawks and leads the Birds to a win that keeps their playoff hopes alive?
That will be one for our arrogant, smug coach to deal with next week.
