Bengal fans feel your pain. We saw the Bengals lose twice to Joe Montana and the 49ers by a *total* of 9 points.

Eagles teammate: McNabb was sick at end of Super Bowl
PHILADELPHIA (AP)Donovan McNabb was so ill in the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl that a Philadelphia Eagles teammate called one play in the huddle, center Hank Fraley told a TV station.
``He fought to the end. He gave it his all,'' Fraley said on Comcast SportsNet in a show aired Monday night. ``He could hardly call the plays -- that's how exhausted he was trying to give it his all. If you remember back when we played Jacksonville two years ago and he ended up puking, it was close to that scene. He exhausted everything he had.''
Eagles spokesman Derek Boyko said Tuesday that McNabb wasn't injured during Philadelphia's 24-21 loss to the New England Patriots. However, McNabb could have been feeling sick -- he fought a cold earlier in the week.
McNabb was shaky at times in Sunday's game. He passed for 357 yards and three touchdowns, but he also threw three interceptions.
The quarterback misfired on several passes early, held the ball too long at other times, and made several poor decisions. One of the best scramblers in the NFL, McNabb had zero yards rushing on just one carry and was sacked four times.
He struggled in particular in the fourth quarter, getting picked off twice and looking slow in getting the team moving late.
``He didn't get a play call in one time,'' Fraley said. ``He mumbled and (receiver) Freddie Mitchell yelled out the play we were trying to bring in. He was puking at the same time, trying to hold it in.''
Mitchell said on Tuesday that McNabb was having complications and ``couldn't get it out so I just had to finish the play up.''
``It was my first time being the quarterback in the NFL,'' Mitchell said on a local television station. ``It was hard. He kind of tried to get the hand signals to the team, but I knew what he was thinking. I just finished the play up.''
McNabb left Tuesday for Hawaii, where he will start for the NFC in Sunday's Pro Bowl. His agent did not immediately return a phone call Tuesday.
The QB had the best season of his six-year NFL career, leading the Eagles to the Super Bowl for the first time since 1981 after three straight losses in the NFC championship game.
McNabb set a team record with 3,875 yards passing and became the first NFL player to throw for more than 30 touchdowns (31) and fewer than 10 interceptions (eight). His passer rating of 104.7 ranked second in the NFC.

Good excuse. And did you know that Ashlee Simpson didn't lip-synch? She was sick, too! Acid reflux. Yup...both these people were sick. That explains their poor performances.

McNabb sure didn't look sick on any of his touchdown drives. He looked amazingly accurate. He looked so good that I was willing to bet he would be back next year. Now, I'm not so sure. The guy's got bad nerves. He upsets easily, apparently when he's down and it's all on the line. That tells me maybe he's not the right quarterback. Mitchell is definately not the right reciever. His big mouth may have cost his team the victory on a night when the champs took a lot of bad penalties.
Was anyone not expecting this after the Patriots' third Superbowl win on a field goal? Had they crushed them, then no one would be listening. But because it was a field goal...
Let the excuses continue.

Now McNabb is denying reports that he was sick. This sounds like Mitchell running his mouth agian. They need to trade or drop that guy.

I don't believe it's Mitchell who's pushing the "McNabb was sick" story. I thought lineman Hank Fraley mentioned it first.
Now I see McNabb is denying it regardless of who said it.

It doesn't matter. That's two rotten eggs in the locker-room.

I think the Pats will win! McNabb will get tired in the middle of the game.
