Garcia had signed with the Raiders in the offseason after two years with the Buccaneers but was released before the regular season. During Garcia's only year with the Eagles, McNabb suffered a torn ACL; Garcia was thrust into the starting role and flourished, as he went |

When the Cowboys last took the field for a game that counted, the expected Super Bowl contenders were dealt a startling 44-6 loss at the hands of the rival Philadelphia Eagles in late December.
