point with him being the future of this organization. it was surprising to a lot of people, the timing of the extension being announced yesterday. five years up to $78 million with a $40 million guarantee that youept hearing about. today, details of the contract reveal that in essence, the redskins have verbiage in there, they can release mcnabb after this comin season. if they do that, they will only lose $3.5 million. really, this contract is not a casef them overpaying donovan mcnabb yesterday when he showed up to the game, obviously he took the field knowing he did have a certain future with this team. that's a relief. he got a standing ovation from the fans as he came out of the tunnel last night. the good vibes did not last long, mcnabb's 17 of 31 passing for 235 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions is. he says in light of the game, the contract is nothing to celebrate. >> at this point i'm angry. you know, i think everyone in

the locker room is. i look forward to being here for a couple more years, there's nothing i can do later right now. i can only focus on the present time. and at this time i'm looking forward to watching this film and moving on and getting ready for tennessee. >> you hear donovan saying he wants to be a part of the future of the team. his agent says they've been working on this deal since august. he had hoped to get it done by the bye week, because they had extended time and planned on coming down here sterday. that's when they were able to wrap it up. they have that option to release him after a year, if they do, they only lose $3.75 llion. yesterday's loss was so humiliating to the players in the locker room. deangelo hall was essed in his uniform for about 45 minutes after the game. he was sitting inside of his locker because he was trying to absorb what that loss meant.

the eagles baited the redskins. they started right before the game, a scuffle that you have to know was pretty calculated on theagles' part. a pre-game scuffle between the two teams raised the intensity. the eagles knew what they were doing. the redskins defense gave up almost 600 yards, including a 60-yard touchdown run by jerome harrison at the end of the first quarter. that score made it 28-0 after one. the eagles set an nfl record. meanwhile, the offense came out flat. down 35-0. mcnabb was able to connect with tight end davis. davis got to the 3 d then was forced out. mcnabb hit darrelle young for the skins first score of the game. it's now 17-31 for almost 300 yards. but also three interceptions, players on both sides of the ball did not have a lot of positive to take from this one.

>> it was embarrassing. they came out the and hit us right in the mouth. >> you just don't think it's going to continue to happen. i never anticated this happening. >> to put up 60 points. felt like somebody was playing a video game out there itas unbelievable. >> mama said the will be days like this, it just happens to be right now. you can't have it happen at all. but it did. >> mama doesn't want to see many more days like that for all these redskins. i had a chance to talk to doc walker a few moments ago. he was saying when you look at michael vick's performance, he's never seen anything like it. vick was so impressive

yesterday, so on point scoring touchdowns on each five of the eagles' first possessions. he was named nfc offensive player of the week for the second week in a row. no one done that since randall cunningham in 1998. it was a coming out party for michael vick against the redskins. he was so dominant. the redsks were not able to get him at all. vick had almost 8 seconds to complete the field. he completed 20 of 28 passes for four touchdowns. he's so dangerous with his feet too. he also ran r 80 yards, he moved past steve young and into second place in nfl history for yards rushing by a quarterback. the redskins, all they could do was praise vick after the game. >> credit to michael vick, he made some plays today that i haven't seen a lot of quarterbacks make for a long time. something sn't there in the passing game, he made plays with his legs and real a bigig time

game. he couldn't make those throws, he couldn't do the thingsn the pocket like he's able to do. you kn, he always could un, but now, i mean, you know, nobody else has a weapon like him in the nfl. >> the other teams need to save their money, try to get a bid for michael vick. the way he looked out there, he looked the way he was when he was with atlanta. have form, can you run and pass and d well. i mean, he keeps playing like that, you'll take that team far. >> yeah, and forget that, he's been better thanhe was when he was at atlaa. he's arguably the best he's ever been. everybody was say stg yesterday. from players toannouncers. that was an historic performance by a quarterback people should stand up and take notice to. moving now to basketball quickly, the wizards take on the

toronto raptors. they will be without john wall. john wall is dealing with a sprained foot. he was seen on crutches yestday at verizon center. that means gilbert arenas will have an opportunity to stand up and take his place. deion will alsoe out with a hyperextended knee he suffered. wall also wa hurt when he landed awkwardly while defending a derek rose jumper. the wizards top scorer averaging 19 points a game. flip saunds says the other guys are just going to have to step up. >>. >> you sll have ten players, opportunities for those guys to develop, coming off of pretty good games. we'll starts him, he's rdy to go. it will be a good challenge for us. they've been playing well right now. they went down there, beat

miami. >> it will also be a good challenge for gilbert arenas, don'tforget he had 30 points the othenight. he felt like he was on in a zone. i think every opportunity gilbert gets to get out there and start to get his legs back, to get that confidence up, really is a od thing for this team. a good thing for this team. the redskins have a day off. forget about that atrocious loss and figu out what you're going to do against the tits, right? >> sounds like a plan. >> thank you. a humble hero is honoredt the white house. ♪
