Carolina hardly resembled the formidable outfit that won 12 regular-season games and edged out the upstart Falcons for the 2008 division crown in last week's home debacle against the Philadelphia Eagles. With Delhomme throwing four interceptions and the Panthers tying a dubious franchise record by committing seven turnovers, the reigning NFC South titlists were handed a humiliating 38-10 loss that may have been even more ugly than the final score i |

| Philadelphia, PA (MySportsbook) - Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid indicated Friday that quarterback Donovan McNabb is being labeled as doubtful for Sunday's home opener against the New Orleans Saints. McNabb sat out practice during the week after suffering a fractured rib last Sunday against Carolina. Reid said McNabb was feeling better and will continue to rehab the injury but all signs point to third-year pro Kevin Kolb making his first NFL start come Sunday with only one week in the books.

He clearly does things his way, just as his father, Buddy, did while he was defensive coordinator with the Chicago Bears and coach of the Philadelphia Eagles and Arizona Cardinals. ``Got a lot of his dad in him, from that standpoint,'' Minnesota Vikings coach Brad Childress said. It's not the first time something like this has been done. Tennessee Titans coach Jeff Fisher has also recorded messages f |

Now let's see what you can do next week,''' said McDermott, who's in his first season calling the shots for the Philadelphia Eagles. McDermott's defense - he prefers the term 'our defense' - dominated the Carolina Panthers in Philadelphia's 38-10 season-opening victory. They forced seven turnovers, had five sacks, scored one touchdown and allowed a league-low 169 yards. Losi |

| Indianapolis, IN (MySportsbook) - Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Anthony Gonzalez will miss up to eight weeks with sprained ligaments in his right knee. In response to the news, the Colts and wide receiver Hank Baskett, who was released by the Philadelphia Eagles on Tuesday, agreed to terms on a one-year contract. Gonzalez left Sunday's 14-12 win over Jacksonville late in the opening quarter as he went down in a heap without contact just after the snap, and stayed on the ground. After the injury timeout with |

PHILADELPHIA: While the Cowboys and Giants have to be mostly pleased with their Week 1 results, the Philadelphia Eagles are likely viewing their season- opening outcome as a mixed bag. The team produced an authoritative 38-10 victory on the road over the reigning NFC South champion Carolina Panthers, fueled by a dominating display by a defense that forced seven turno |

The former Pro Bowl selection was hoping to erase the taste of his five- interception performance versus the Arizona Cardinals last January. But thanks to a heavy Philadelphia Eagles' pass rush, he turned the ball over another five times and was on his back more times than Charlie Brown trying to kick a football. Asked what went wrong in the 38-10 setback to the Eagles, Panthers head coach John Fox said, "The protection. I think |
