Blaze of Glory?

Ironically, and I say this as a huge McNabb fan – in the wake of yesterday’s loss and basically being eliminated from playoff contention – questions about Kolb starting were going to come up today regardless of the second half substitution. In fact, I thought about it in the first half when they looked so pathetic. I was thinking that if they lost – that was going to usher in the Kolb era but would they really start Kolb on a short week?


It should be interesting to see how he plays Thursday night. Here’s hoping he lets it all hang out, with nothing left to lose…cause, really he doesn’t. and oh what a supporting cast he will have. Westbrook and Buckhalter are missing practice this week with their injuries. The starting backfield could be Lorenzo Booker and Dan Klecko.


It seems obvious that this will be McNabb’s last game starting. Kolb will come in for the Giants game after a week and a half of preparation. Can McNabb carry the team on his back one more time? Probably not if his performance this season is any indication but here’s hoping.
