Garcia signs with Eagles

PHILADELPHIA -- Donovan McNabb is not ruling himself out for the Eagles' game against New Orleans next Sunday despite suffering a cracked rib on Sunday. Philadelphia got some insurance on Monday, just in case.

The Eagles reached agreement with quarterback Jeff Garcia, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday. Garcia, a 10-year veteran, played for Philadelphia in 2006 and went 5-1 in six starts in relief of an injured McNabb.

Good move for the Eagles. Garcia is familiar with their system and did a good job filling in for Don a few years back.

There was supposed to have been tension between McNabb and Garcia last time, hence Philly's decision to let him go.

There was a faction of Philly fans that wanted the team to keep Garcia and trade McNabb. Throw that in with the Vick fans and you've got the potential for the wildest QB controversy of all time.

Curious move - I'm wondering if this signals that the Eagles are not confident in Michael Vick's ability to be a starting quarterback in a pinch.

Well, there might be some truth there. But if they didn't sign anyone, they are going into week 2 with Kolb and an injured McNabb, since Vick can't play until week 3.

So, they'd basically be facing the Saints with only one available QB. I don't think any team wants to do that.

      Hope Koch recovers (he’s stated numerous times he doesn’t like to be called “koochie”) soon. But he does not instill confidence in the crease. I don’t have any confidence in any of our goalies, healthy or not. Andersen when available gives us the best chance to win but he’s never available.    Team has to explore trade options soon.

      Respectfully, I completely disagree. Last year we were:  32nd in Sacks. 32nd in Turnovers.  32nd in Rushing TDs allowed  29th in Scoring.  We were absolutely atrocious on defense last year and that was with a full stable of weapons in Derek Brown, Frankie Luvu and Brian Burns that played all 17 games.  Using yards per game as a metric to guage our success lacks the context that because our offense was so inept teams were not driving the length of the field, they were starting at their 40-50 yard line.  This year, our Defense ranks:  31st in Sacks. Tied for 19th in Turnovers  31st in Rushing TDs allowed 32nd in Scoring  His defense fails to get pressure, fails to turn the ball over and fails to stop the run. Three things you absolutely have to do to be successful in the NFL.  Denver meanwhile has not missed a beat without him.  If another team wants to hire him as a HC and the Panthers get two 3rds for it I'll wish him the best and pack his bags myself.
