The anticipation for Sunday’s game is building. Here’s a mish-mash of things from around the net.
Donovan McNabb paid a little visit to Yardbarker yesterday: Here’s what he had to say to the fans.
I posted a link to a song last week called Eagles Game Face ‘08: Well, the guys made a kick-ass video to go along with the song. Here’s the link.
A great article by Bob Brookover from the Inquirer about Brian Westbrook and the Eagles’ running game.
A comprehensive breakdown on Sunday’s game by Steve Wyche over at NFL.com.

I remember when Jim Johnson was here in Arizona as the D-Line coach. I worked for the Cardinals when he was one of the coaches. Nice guy, great coach, great defenses.
He definitely is all that Scott. I don’t know how the Eagles have been able to hold on to him as long as they have. He probably should have had a shot at a head coaching job somewhere.
Is there something in his contract?
I have always been a Jim Johnson fan, from back in his days with the Colts. Great defensive mind. There’s nothing in his contract. He just prefers being a coordinator. I don’t blame him. He takes less heat than Reid, that’s for sure.
Look at the success Johnson’s former assistants are having: Leslie Frazier (Vikings), Steve Spags (Giants), Ron Rivera (Chargers) and John Harbaugh. One is a head coach and the other three are leading candidates. Amazing!
Well isn’t that lucky for us? Despite a hiccup or two, JJ’s defenses have been the most consistent hallmark of Reid’s tenure. Well one could make that argument at least.
