Donovan McNabb has been bad. I wouldn't say it's entirely his fault with our suspect pass protection but when given time he's been very inaccurate. A lot of one-hoppers and overthrown balls. The weakest spot on our offensive line would have to be our tackles. Our run blocking has been okay. AP is our only bright spot on offense.
Our receiving corps and TE's have been nothing to write home about either. I think it's a combination of not being able to get separation from DB's down field, O-line not giving McNabb time to get open and bad throws from McNabb.
Our D-Line has been very good. Allen and Robison pressuring the QB has been very successful thus far. Getting Kevin Williams back from his suspensions last week was also big.
Our LB's have been good against the run but are terrible in coverage over the middle. I believe 2 TE's have run up nearly 170 yards on them in the past 2 games.
DB's have been pretty solid for being on the field a lot of the time. Second year guy Chris Cook is a big DB and has been pretty good at keeping the best receivers down for the most part. He was able to keep Vincent Jackson to only 40 yards or so against SD and was one on one with Megatron for most of the game.
Special Teams has also been very solid.
In conclusion, we come out and play a very good 30 minutes of football usually playing excellent defense shutting down the opponents offense. We average 5-6 yards per carry from our running game. In the second half we fail to make adjustments and for some reason don't give the ball to our play makers (AP, Harvin). Stupid penalties are a problem as well.
Best of luck on Sunday
