McNabb doesn't want to play this weekend, thinks Kolb should play instead

Looks like the the Eagles fans will have more to talk about

"I want Kevin to play," the Eagles' embattled five-time Pro Bowl quarterback said Wednesday of the rookie who was seemingly drafted to replace him."

Coach Andy Reid has other thoughts

""I know what he can do and I'm not worried about him in the future," the coach said. "I know what he can do and I don't think one game is going to determine his future.""

I also want Kolb to play. I want Eagles fans to see that he's not the next great thing and that they're taking a QB like McNabb for granted. Maybe if they see someone else do it, they will be more grateful for what they have in McNabb and I think quietly, that's what McNabb wants too

talk about taking things out of context. mcnabb was expressing that he is a team player and that he had to sit on the bench and that he hopes the eagles do well enough on sunday so that kolb and all the other second and third stringers get to play.

F*ck off Dickmania , He was saying he understands that Kolb wants some playing time, not that He ( McNabb ) does not want to play ! You are mixing his words for YOUR PURPOSE .

WOW, i didnt know that dice wrote the orig article...

but then again if you read the WHOLE article it says what it says

HA, u tell em truth................but still this shit is getting OLD!!!!!!!

Well, writers like to construe thing for their own purposes..what was the question? I bet the question was.."hey Donovan! What do you think about Kevin Kolb playing next game?" I can see Donovan saying.."I want him to play!" That makes sense to me. I mean he is not going to walk up to a bunch of reporters and say.."Hey you know what? I don't feel like playing next game..let Kevin do it!!"

There are only a select few athletes that would ever not want to play and McNabb is not one of them.

The guy is as good as out of Philly...maybe he will do better somewhere else.

here we go with the media again!!!#5 did not say''i don't want to play'' so why does the header read like that?more cable news

*sigh* drama..............................zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.......makes me sleepy, but ya'll already know he didn't say that..........................YES wolfgire more cable news :)!!!!!!!!!

We will just have to wait and see if McNabb returns next year or not. If he is then he is if not best of luck to him wherever he ends up. Always someone twisiting someones words around.

Ahhhh.........the saga continues. And you all thought T.O. was an issue. Fun, isn't it??

It is getting old real fast.

Now he's playing the media, the team, and the fans. Never seen a starting QB who didn't want to play. I agree Kolb probaby needs some quality playing time, but getting it in a meaningless game won't do him any good.

HEY!!!!!!! dont make me give u a thumbs down LMAO!

he didn't say it, the media played it.....DRAMA

guess what ya got another thumbs up phuckphilly & that shit don't happen often with me LMAO!!!!!!
it's bogu sh&TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Donovan is a team guy, but he also wants people to see what Kolb cannot do, that way all them racist Philly fans will realize how good DON is. Come on lets be real for a sec. Donovan should not have even been playing this year. Knee surgery is a 2 yr injury PERIOD!! and he should have been allowed the time to heal, that is the least the organization could have done for him!! Since they refuse to Get a top notch receiver for him!!!......Stop all the rumors and the hating...IF WE LEFT IT TO THE FANS IN PHILLY WE WOULD HAVE RICKY WILLIAMS AND HEMP PARTY.......BE GRATEFUL FOR WHAT YOU GOT.....A.J. FEELEY????????????? KEVIN KOLB???????????? NEITHER ONE COULD WIN MORE THAN 4 GAMES AS THE STARTER NEXT YEAR...... GET REAL PHILLY FANS AND DONOVAN HATERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So they are going to put Kolb in a meaningless game with nothing on the line for either team to see what he cannot do? Makes sense to me, I guess. Maybe McNabb is gunshy and doesn't want to play because he's afraid someone is going to blindside his knee and put him out for another year.

well said eagleman!!

Wow how you get not wanting to play out of that? I tell your reading and comprehending is fundamental. LOL

Looks like you are the only one that didn't. Maybe it's your reading and comprehension that is fundamental....LOL.

funkediva's right phuckphilly.........be nice now!! this media bullshit is getting OLD big time!!!

Donovan, your hometown could use you next year. Come on, play for pride tomorrow.

KOLB IS NOT PLAYING TODAY, NONE OF THE SECONDARY IS............
