Andy… the Coward
Nov 23, 2008 Eagles Rumors
The news that Andy Reid couldn’t bear to tell Donovan that his day (and career) for the Eagles was over himself was pretty shocking. It was always assumed that he and McNabb were as close as any two people in the organization.
I guess not. But that wasn’t the only cowardly thing Big Red did today.
The Eagles desperately needed a win today. They were trailing the Ravens by 3 at halftime, and McNabb just had a horrible second quarter. Reid saw his job on the line. He panicked. And he let the loud, McNabb-hating segment of the Philly media and fanbase make his decision.
I know what his lifetime record is. I know how he turned this franchise around. But now he’s lost me forever. I don’t think he’s the right guy to guide this team through what will surely be a turbulent short-term future.
I never thought I’d say this, but maybe it really is time to totally clean house.
