Eagles WR Jackson backs pregame talk

Willie McGinest was talking to Eagles WR DeSean Jackson during pregame warmups. They were in the way of a camera shot we were trying to get of Eagles QB Donovan McNabb, so I politely asked them if they could move out of the way a little bit.
“Oh, I see. They want to get the big man,” Jackson said, before joking to Willie, “They’ll see who the big man is today.”
Jackson said he would be the difference-maker. With a 62-yard touchdown catch to give the Eagles the lead at 25-24, he very well might be.
It’s tough for Eagles fans to think about it, but with the missed field-goal attempt, missed extra-point try and missed two-point conversion, Philadelphia could be up by a touchdown right now.
