Cardinals fans busted

Winning really does make a difference. Apparently, they're Cardinals fans that are really nuts about their team. Either that or they hoped on the bandwagon after Jake Delhomme's fifth interception in the NFC Divisional Playoff game. But before the NFC Championship game, two guys decided to destroy the grass on Donovan McNabb's front lawn of his Arizona home. Thankfully, they were caught.

Deadspin did some looking around and the Arizona Republic says they've been caught.

Jason Whitlock is a big Donovan fan

Jason Whitlock said some pretty interesting things in his column on FoxSports.com. Some of them will blow your mind, some might make you think he's never seen an Eagles game or talked to an Eagles fan before (read No. 9).

Here it is.

McNabb answers the call

As the Birds head to the NFC title game, here's a look at how McNabb closed out the last two games.

With the game already in hand, McNabb had to make a quick call after he ran out of bounds on the Giants sideline.

Remember this from the end of the Vikings game.

Web shooter: Front Page News

If you woke up this morning and checked SI.com and ESPN.com, both Web sites have front pages features on Philadelphia sports teams. Lucky us.

SI's Marty Burns writes that the Sixers are still preaching patience to justify their slow start.

It wasn't supposed to be this way, of course. When the Sixers lured Brand away from the Clippers with a five-year, $82 million deal, many expected Philadelphia to make an immediate jump in the standings. Maybe even challenge the Celtics for the Eastern crown.

Just like in real life, the article offers no real solution for the problem. Maybe while Brand is out of the line up, they'll start playing like they did at the end of last season.

The second article comes courtesy of Rick Riley. He took a survey of NFL players, asking them what the outcome is of obscure rules. Does this vindicate Donovan? You decide.

How not to fix the Eagles

SI.com's Andrew Perloff is writing that the QB controversy in Philadelphia is not between McNabb and Kolb. If Kolb cannot prove himself this year, the Birds may head in another direction.

When Philadelphia owner Jeffrey Lurie, a Boston native, goes after Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels in the offseason, they're going to be tempted to sign the unrestricted free agent Cassel.

Let me tell you why this won't work:

1. Matt Cassel has had back to back 400+ yard games.... throwing to Randy Moss and Wes Welker.

2. Kevin Curtis and DeSean Jackson are not Moss and Welker.

It doesn't matter if the Eagles have McNabb or Cassel, Marino or Joe Montana, or both Manning brothers at the same time at QB, they're not going to fix their team until they sign a WR the opposing defense will respect, and until they learn to establish a running attack.

McNabb Era is Over

Time for a regime change. For better or for worse, Donovan McNabb's time as leader of the Eagles is over.

Through the tube - Piling on

In case Donovan McNabb didn't have it bad enough, now he has to deal with this.
