| 7th December, 2007 - 9:01 am |  Philadelphia Daily News - Eagles' President Joe Banner said yesterday that he expects Donovan McNabb to quarterback the Eagles next season, and Andy Reid to coach them.
There has been considerable speculation that the Eagles would try to trade McNabb if they fail to make the playoffs this season, as now seems likely. The team spent its first draft pick last April, in the second round, on quarterback Kevin Kolb.
But during an interview on WIP (610-AM), Banner said, "I can't envision a situation in which [Donovan McNabb] is not our quarterback next year . . . We are talking about a quarterback who went to four straight [NFC] Championship Games. There are only four quarterbacks in the history of the league that have done that. You are talking about a quarterback who has had a higher winning percentage in his first 7 years in the league than Peyton Manning."
"You are talking about a quarterback that has one of the highest quarterback ratings over the first seven seasons, one of the best TD-to-interceptions ratios of any quarterback in the history of this game in his first seven seasons in the league . . . My expectations, and I can't really even picture a different scenario, is that he'll be the quarterback." [READ] |
