I want to see Donovan McNabb and Brian Westbrook take an ownership stake in this football team tonight.
That means if something is going wrong or if they have the wrong game plan, I want to see them get involved in the decision making to the point that they take charge of what going on offensively.
McNabb and Westbrook have both earned the right to have a hand in the decision-making. They both know the Eagles offensive system backward and forward, plus they have the respect of their teammates.
Both of them have been Pro Bowlers which means they’re amongst the best players in the league.
I don’t want to see what happened in Oakland ever happen again as long as those two guys are on the football team. They should have enough confidence to get in Andy Reid’s face and tell him that they need to make an adjustment.
I don’t know how much authority McNabb and Westbrook have but I know they’re experienced enough to know when they’re trying to execute the wrong game plan.
They can’t sit back and say nothing until the game is lost. I’d rather have somebody throw a fit on the sideline rather lose a game to a team that has no business beating them.
