Max, The pressure these NFL coaches are under is enormous, not to mention the sacrifices made on family time. I just hope people take the magnifying glass off of Reid and his family while he deals with a very serious situation. Check this news out and it is NOT good news for Garcia fans. Imo, Garcia is as good as gone. I probably sit in the minority and believe Garcia could have caused a QB controversy next year. I think team management saw a potential issue next year if McNabb struggles and decided to let him go. Feeley gets 3-year extension from Eagles Story Tools: Print Email Blog This Associated Press Posted: 1 hour ago PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Quarterback A.J. Feeley and the Eagles agreed on a three-year contract extension Sunday, nearly eliminating the chance that Jeff Garcia will return to Philadelphia. Feeley's new deal runs through 2010. Garcia, who helped the Eagles win the NFC East title and a playoff game after Donovan McNabb was injured, will become a free agent on Friday. "A.J. Feeley has been very productive as a quarterback in Philadelphia," general manager Tom Heckert said. "He's won some games at crucial times for this franchise and he gives us a great amount of confidence as a backup to Donovan McNabb. A.J.'s proven to be very comfortable in this offensive scheme and we look forward to having him in the fold for the next several years." Garcia, a three-time Pro-Bowl quarterback in San Francisco earlier this decade, revived his career in Philadelphia. He led the Eagles to five straight wins down the stretch, completing 61.7 percent of his passes for 1,309 yards, 10 touchdowns and two interceptions. The Eagles were 5-5 and seemingly out of the playoff picture when McNabb tore a knee ligament on Nov. 19. But with Garcia leading the way, they captured their fifth division title in six years. Garcia, who turned 37 Saturday, played under a one-year contract after miserable one-year stints in Cleveland and Detroit. His hard-nosed, gritty style quickly made him a fan favorite in Philadelphia. He has said he wants to return in a backup role, but it's highly doubtful the Eagles will bring him back now that Feeley is under contract for four more years. Tampa Bay and Denver are among the teams reportedly interested in Garcia, who proved that he's still a quality NFL quarterback. The 29-year-old Feeley was originally drafted by Philadelphia in the fifth round of the 2001 draft. He was 4-1 as a starter in the last five regular-season games in 2002, helping the Eagles clinch the division title and first place in the conference after McNabb and backup Koy Detmer were injured. Feeley was traded to Miami in 2004 for a second-round draft pick the Eagles used to select wide receiver Reggie Brown. He was traded to San Diego after 1 1/2 seasons with the Dolphins and returned to the Eagles last season as the No. 3 quarterback behind McNabb and Garcia. With the Eagles, Feeley has completed 59.2 percent of his passes for 1,496 yards, 11 TDs and six interceptions while going 4-1. Overall, he's thrown for 3,389 yards, 22 TDs, 21 interceptions and has completed 55.7 percent of his passes for a passer rating of 71.1 in 20 career games, including 13 starts.
