McNabb in "Hot Seat"

Donovan McNabb tops this Sports Illustrated list, literally, of players on the "hot seat" and need to produce "early" in 2008. Silly SI. Philly fans are famous for their impatience, and given the high expectations - again - for this Eagles team, most Eagles players, but McNabb in particular, need to produce early and often this season.

1. Donovan McNabb, QB, Philadelphia Eagles: Though it is not being talked about much in Philadelphia, if the Eagles get off to a horrific start, some members of the organization and fan base may clamor to see what Kevin Kolb can do. The oft-injured McNabb is now having some shoulder issues, a bad sign for a quarterback in June. Andy Reid's loyalty to McNabb leads one to believe he will be given every chance to succeed, especially given some of the holes he has led this team out of in the past. But at some point this organization has proven they will move on if they have to.
