Around the NFL Week 5

[SirClintonPortis]

Apparently, I missed it, but the Vikes fans unleashed the boobirds on McNabb real quick. Racist!!! XD

The Vikings won 34-10, but it wasn't because of McNabb. He was woefully inaccurate once again, misfiring on his first three throws and overthrowing a wide open Percy Harvin in the third quarter. McNabb was booed lustily by his hometown crowd even though he was nursing a three-score lead in the second half. McNabb salvaged his fantasy day with a four-yard touchdown run up the middle in the second quarter.

A high-ranking NFL scout tells 1500 ESPN Twin Cities that Donovan McNabb's problems have been compounded by an unexpectedly weak arm this season."The arm strength part has been a little surprising," the scout said. "Accuracy's never been his thing, but it doesn't look like he throws it very hard anymore. ... I've been reading those articles about his mechanics. I don't see much different, other than the fact he's an older guy now. Probably, his joints aren't as flexible and loose as they once were." McNabb is completing just 56.8 percent of his passes at a scant 6.4 yards per attempt. Oct 14 - 8:24 AM
