I don't disagree. It's been apparent for some time to any fan that really pays attention that he is the heart and soul of the Eagles franchise.
It's funny, but every single bleedin' time they decide (for whatever reason) to develop a running game during any game, it seems they do much better passing the ball. McNabb has enjoyed this balance as well - his numbers the past two weeks have been far more than respectable, and an incredible difference over the Baltimore debacle and that stupid tie. The point is that he doesn't have to do it all himself, and that the defenses can't just sit back and play 3-deep all day long.
It's obvious to a hack like me. Why can't Reid see this?
