True. That left tackle got molested all night by Umenyiora and Reid never put a back or a tight-end over there to help protect McNabb.
When Westbrook is out of the line up, the Eagles get exposed as a really bad football team. They dont have the ability to establish a true run game and they dont have a receiver to really stretch out a defense. But with Westbrook, they have a dynamic RB/Receiver to come out of the backfield and catch those little check-down and swing passes. I dont know if Westbrook would have won them the game, but the sack count wouldnt have been at 12 and there might have been
some life in the Eagles offense.
