Eagles
... have landed.
Down went QB Donovan McNabb (above), taking the offense with him. (The defense?
"We didn't tackle," said coach Andy Reid after a 31--13 loss to
Tennessee.) At 5--5 and losers of four of five, the Iggles, who haven't beaten

Steve
Jacksons
Pacers guard
Stephen Jackson (right, sore wrist, awaiting trial for allegedly firing off a
gun, .342 field goal percentage) was yanked from starting lineup. Rams running
back Steven Jackson said, "I'm looking forward to it," before Sunday's
game with Carolina--then he rushed for just 27 yards in a shutout loss.

Redskins safety,

Kasparaitis
Rangers sent
big-hitting Russian defenseman Darius to the minors last month for being out of
shape; now he's back but can't crack the lineup. Coach Tom Renney: "He's
fighting for his life."
