Donovan McNabb’s Post-Game Speech Lets Eagles Know They Made A Mistake
↵
Donovan McNabb came out triumphant against on Sunday against his former team and the two quarterbacks who backed him up for the Eagles team. Of course, that doesn't mean McNabb played exceedingly well for the Redskins in their win in Lincoln Financial Field.
↵While Donovan helped the Redskins jump out to a 17-6 lead, he mostly struggled in the second half, until he pulled out an 18-yard run to keep the clock going late in the 4th quarter when Washington was nursing a 17-12 lead. Following the win, McNabb addressed his teammates in the locker room, saying:
↵↵“Hey, this right here defines team, man. This defines team. You know, despite whatever’s happened in the last couple of weeks, this right here showed how tough we are. Defense, we really appreciate you. In the second half, you [kicked tail for us]. Offense, we gonna get it together and it starts with me. [Thumping the ball against his chest.] But I just want to say, definitely, this right here defines team. And this is something we can feed off of going into the rest of the season. We are number one in the NFC East, and we gonna stay up there. Everybody makes mistakes in [their] lifetime, and they made one last year! So...thank you.”
↵↵Quite a statement from a guy who said before the game that he had moved on since being traded.
