The dreaded Saturday Eagles pick

We interrupt the Phillies post-season for the return of your Birds.

That's right, after a bye week, the Eagles are back in action Sunday at the Linc against the lowly Bucs.

If you liked the Chiefs game, you'll love this one. The Bucs just might be the worst team in the NFL.

The game also will mark the return of Donovan McNabb as starting QB after watching Kevin Kolb throw for more than 300 yards in both of the last two games.

Amazing how that will make a fractured rib feel better. The Eagles don't realy need McNabb to win this gmae, and I'm not sure Andy Reid should be risking McNabb further banging up that ouchy rib. But Donovan made it clear this week that he's ready to go.

What we don't know is whether he's ready to share the stage with Michael Vick in Reid's 'Wildcat' formations.

It will be very intersting to see how long it takes before McNabb loses his patience and goes Wildat himself - all over his head coach.

At least it will be a lot more interesting than watching the Eagles dismantle the Bucs. But hey, we need something to talk about while waiting for a 10:07 Phillies start in Denver.

Make it Eagles 33, Bucks 13.
