For the Eagles, last week’s debacle can be credited as a group effort, as Philly simply wasn’t ready to play. After the game, quarterback Donovan McNabb refused to throw his teammates under the bus, and instead took the blame himself.
"It all starts with me. I have to raise my level of play, and everyone else has to as well," McNabb said. "What I meant is, we have a young team, and a lot of things we were doing just were very uncharacteristic of what we did all throughout the year. I wasn't blaming it on anyone, by any means."
For the Cowboys, they have gone from being the joke of the league, to the most dangerous NFC team in this year’s 2010 NFL Playoff Odds, Picks & Predictions. But the Boys will have some personnel problems to deal with on Saturday night, as some key players were reported as missing practice this week.
Among some of the most notables was line backer DeMarcus Ware. The team added Ware to their injury report on Thursday, after he failed to partake in practices with a back condition. Dallas also added running back Marion Barber to Thursday’s report with a knee problem.
Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips can only hope his defense can perform as it has down the stretch, and they’ll be just fine. "I've been fortunate to be around a lot of good defensive teams, and this team is right up there with them," Phillips said Monday. "It really is about the team. It's not about me. It's not a personal deal with me. I believed in this team the whole time and I think everybody's known that. They've come through."
