I think he'll be back for the playoffs as well. There is no sense in bringing him back any sooner. I'd hate to see him aggravate the injury by being too aggressive with his return.

I believe the formula of the last few weeks will continue to be successful against the Skins, Cowboys and Giants. The Eagles D will continue to believe they need to set the tempo and carry the team as long as McNabb is sidelined.

Reid has done a good job of preaching the one week at a time mentality to keep the team focused.

I didn't think I said he wouldn't be back for the playoffs ....

I think I said, they won't be rushing him back to take a few snaps against the Giants and that the team is far better off with the "we don't have Donovan" outlook than one of "let's wait for Donovan to get back". The past 3 weeks have proven that.

The bye week will be an additional benefit and yes, once medical staff clears him, he plays ...

In the meantime, we run the table as I said a few weeks ago .... McNabb coming back is just icing on the cake !
