1. Sack Mcnabb Remember that guy who taunted the Giants by picking up the phone on the Giants sideline to call his mom for some celebratory Campbell's soup during the NFC playoff game last season?  That guy was Donovan McNabb, and Giants fans would like nothing more than to see him crushed by Giants defensive linemen all night. Incidentally, this is also the best way to stop the Eagles' offense. When constant pressure is put on McNabb, he...

We managed to scrape out a win this week, but so did everyone else that we have our eyes on. We need to win out, unlike some of the other playoff teams, meaning we need to hope that our injuries don't mount up. We also break back into the top 10.   Biggest Rise: San Francisco 49ers rose 5 spots to stay in NFC West "contention." Mention: Philadelphia Eagles shot up 4 spots to get control of the NFC East   Biggest Fall: The Pittsburgh Steelers...

Er, I mean Broncos at Eagles Preview. That is if they're planning on bringing the rest of the team. They'll need them all to beat the Eagles. Though as we've seen this year it's definitely doable if the bad or average Eagles team shows up.I hate to keep carping on this, but if the Eagles win the turnover battle, they win this game. This is Keys to the Game 1 through 4. If not, then they'll also need big days from DeSean, McNabb, and McCoy...

It would've been easier for the Philadelphia Eagles to overlook San Francisco before the 49ers beat the defending conference champions convincingly on a national stage.

He practiced on the scout team this week, but the two-time Pro Bowler has not been medically cleared to play in a game.  

Lost in the hoopla surrounding the return of Brian Dawkins to Philadelphia is the importance of a game with strong playoff implications. All eyes will be on No. 20 when the Denver Broncos (8-6) visit the NFC East-leading Eagles (10-4) on Sunday. Dawkins spent 13 seasons in Philadelphia, establishing himself as a Hall of Fame-caliber safety and one of the all-time greatest fan favorites in the city.
