it is what you expect out of a donovan mcnabb. that is why he is a perennial pro bowler and as got as he has been in his career. he showed it yesterday p. >> the numbers were not good when you look at statistics. but the philly fans probably a little more upset they didn't have him around once we saw michael vick go down, kevin cobb back in there and that was not pretty. >> you think philly fans are saying, that mcnabb guy looked pretty good in eagle green today. all of a sudden, philadelphia is a mess at the quarterback position. we don't know about michael vick and his ribs and his arm, his wrist and all of those things. we know kevin cobb can't play that. was pretty apparent yesterday at least. and donovan mcnabb does when he does here in d.c. and they had him for 11 years there. sour grapes this morning. that is why you don't trade a quarterback in your division. you are going to see him twice a year the you saw him yesterday up close an personal. and he beat you. that has got to hurt. yes, dig it in. you better believe donova

mcnabb was effective running the ball when he did. after the game, mcnabb was mobbed, really, by the former teammates and the eagle coach, annie reid. he finally showed emotion after the game. >> this is afine team. despite whatever has happened in the last couple week, this shows how tough we really are. defense, we really appreciate you. in the second half -- offensively we're going to get it together and it starts with me. this right here is a fine team. this was something we can feed off of going into the rest of the sean. we are number one in the nfc. everybody makes mistakes in their lifetime and they made one last year. so -- thank you. >> donavan mcnabb getting a little jab in there. his teammates certainly that this win meant a lot for them. the reaction coming up as well as injury updates. back to you. >> division wins ar so sweet. >> especially since the didn't have any last year, right? >> absolutely. >> tastes even sweeter. >>> coming up, verizon customers have been charged with mystery fees. >> a new study that found an

yeah, they did cheer mcnabb. they also booed him later in the game when he was playing very well and the eagles were playing very poorly. they also bad kevin kolb who got taken into the game when -- booed kevin kolb who got taken into the game when michael vick got hurt. here's what happened. redskins' first possession ryan torain with a tough run through clinton michael, 12-yard touchdown, skins up 7-0, tore rain 18 carries for 70-yard. the teach rushed for a buck 79. -- team rushed for a buck 79. buffalo for chris cooley -- beautiful for chris cooley. late 1st quarter michael vick 3rd and 6, scrambling, 23 yards down to the 1, but vick gets sandwiched by d'angelo hall and kareem moore. vick suffered a rib injury and did not return. mcnabb did return a winner. 17-12 over his former team and lindsay murphy joins me now. this was a pretty happy locker room. we've been in a lot of them. they lost two straight. i get that. they stopped that, but i think everyone did want to win it for donovan. >> they definitely ral

donovan mcnabb returned to the city of brotherly love. mcnabb received a standing ovation in his first game at philadelphia since the eagles traded him and he got an embrace from michael vick. mcnabb threw 19 times for 125 yards and one touchdown but that is all they needed to walk away with a victory. the final score, 17-12. >> i was overwhelmed a little bit with the standing ovation and the reception that i got. >> it felt good to be able to come in and help him get a victory against a team that bakley said, you are not good enough, this is what we think of you. we will trade you in the division. >> the bottom line is the redskins are now first in their division. coming up in a few minutes we will see how redskins fans celebrated this big win. >> our other top story, another robbery in college park prompts another alert. the latest was early sunday near a dorm and it is raising more safety concerns after a violent start to the school year. court think robinson is live -- courtney robinson is live with more. >> in all of these situations

all week it's been all mcnabb. i guess tuesday where the phillies were doing some stuff, obviously making the run, but except for monday or tuesday, it's been wall to wall mcnabb. it's going to stay that way till problem tuesday of next week. i'm sure monday will be a tremendous amount of reaction coming up. pregame show will be a lot of fun. we've had a lot of fun with it and certainly we know it's going to keep going. >> talk about the guy you guys have under center now. michael vick, donovan kind of instrumental in bringing him over to philly. is he the type of quarterback that philly fans will learn to love because he's kind of the anti-donovan in some ways? >> yeah, he is. it was obviously rocky started out. i think the eagles handled it extremely well, difficult challenge. i was against it for the off the field reasons. for me that was a line that had been crossed i didn't want to see coming here to our town, our team. certainly he's conducted himself very well. his play on the field this year has been phenom

mcnabb on the sidelines talking to kyle shanahan. my bad. next, mcnabb redeems himself. hooks up with sanmoss. end of the first half. 10-7, redskins. cutler having all kind of problems early this seaso not a problem here. finds johnny knox in the back of the end zone. chicago tak a lead after halftime. that was about all the bears offense did. honestly, they weren't good. third quarter, third and seven for chicago. cutler is picked off by delan'ao hall. takes it back 92 yards for the touchdown. redskins retake the lead, 17-14. fourth quarter. same score. cutler looking for knox again. it's that d'angelo hall guy again. his fourth interception in the game ties the record for most in a game and for the first time this season, the redskins go into the the victory formation. that's the ball game. the redskins win it17-14. dan heely isin aeporter formation. >> hakem, they have given up more yards than any other team in the nfl, but today, the defense was the difference. they forced six chicago turnovers, four into the hands of d'angelo hall. >> i've never had more than two pi

donovan mcnabb. and that's what they'll probably do again on sunday when he goes back to philly. but there are some people who probably will cheer for the redskins quarterback because of his 11 years with that team. >> this is a big game r the 1-2 skins. tom sherwood joins us. >> reporter: we talked to fans andeard from a football-loving bartender. ellen white, a bar tender in clyde's downtown works in a bar that features redskins patings. how does she feel about mcnabb on sunday. and you'll be supporting? >> the eagles. >> reporter: why? >> i was born up there. >> reporter: does the bartender think mcnabb's starring in philly for 11 seasons will be booed? >> i think they'll cheer him until 2 game starts and then they're going tory the take him down. >> reporter: if he throws a 60 yard pass for a touchdown? >> they're going to boo. >> reporter: but it's football. it's natural to boo the enemy, especiallyith michael vick taking mcnabb's place and the hated giants just up the road. >> the giants hate t

donovan mcnabb got at his homecoming. eunice ramsey is smiling. she has been waiting tables for 55 years at the tasty diner in silver springs. she has a serious work ethic and a serious devotion to the redskins. >> [unintelligible] >> ramsey, and millions of skins fans watched as donovan mcnabb returned from the city of brotherly love, where he played for 11 years after being traded from washington. the warm reception from the philadelphia crowd defied some. it is the kind of behavior some have grown to expect from this crowd. >> philadelphia is a love town. >> the skins' 17-12 win over the eagles put washington in first place in the division. this is a team that won only four games last season. yes, it is still early, but for a notoriously optimistic skins fan, never too early to think big. >> all the way. it could be anybody out there. >> it is still good to be able to dream it as opposed to being out four games into the season. >> the schedule ahead is still somewhat daunting, green bay, indianapolis and chicago, but r

mcnabb making his first trip back to philly and these friends are facing off. we can call them friends? >> absolutely. when mcnabb was at syracuse and vick was in college, he said he will be the first michael vick. do you remember welcome back cotter? they say they tease him a lot because we've got them on the spot. welcome back. welcome back, donovan mcnabb. he's heard his share of rases through the years and i don't get why. the philly fans have seem to be on their former star quarterback and all he did was lead them to five nfc title games and one superbowl and selected to the probowl six times. that's good, people. but many expect the blue birds to be out in full first. but donovan, what do you think? >> you wouldn't expect me to say i'm going to get booed, do you? but 11 years have been great and that's one that you just can't forget. >> knowing them, they're boo him. they boo everybody up there. they booed him when he was winning games for them. >> they boo everybody. they boo santa claus, the tooth fairy. i just know it will be hostile but it will be fun

mcnabb. back to pass. little pressure here rolls out, looking down the sideline for anthony armstrong and no. not even close. redskins turned it over on downs. very next redskins' possession. they try it again. mcnabb, little more smooth this time. up top to anthony armstrong. this is beautiful. 48-yard touchdown. the first of armstrong's career. the redskins are back in it. th cut the lead to three. we got a ball game. seven seconds to play now. tied at 13. naan crosby on from 53 yards out. for the game-winner. off the left post, no good. mark shanahan on the sidelines. oh, yeah. that close. we're going to overtime. in ot, aaron rodgers out of the sh shotgun. usually good. the defense played big ti, keeping the redskins in the game. landrieu was down where he caught the ball, but the redskins have the ball. graham ganoe with a chance to be a hero. come on, buddy. i won't call you weird if you make this kick. from 33 yards, ball game right down the middle. the redskins come back to win it 16-13 in overtime

that was mcnabb's only touchdown of the game. four seconds to play now. the eagles with one last shot. the redskins lead 17-12. kevin kolb in for the injured making vick. take a look. jason almost comes down with it but deangelo hall is there for the interception. the redskins win 17-12. they are now 2-0 in the division. mcnabb all smiles after the game but coach shanahan that don't make me sweat out any more of these games. >> of course you would lake to find a way to win these games. you've been ahead in these games and you would lake to finish them earlier. and fortunately, we go go won two and unfortunately we lost one. we had more opportunities in that game than any of the games. but you will try to learn from your mistakes and hopefully we will. >> reporter: the head coach mike shanahan is thrled with his team's performance. mcnabb finally admitted how good it felt when he talked to them after the ame. you can see it coming up in sports. >> that's a fastball he won't let go of. >> i should say no. >>> it is a top ten list that no one wants to be on.

mcnabb gets away from pressure and fire it is downtown to moss. hauls it in for a 52-yard game and that sets up a field goal to put the skins on the board. skins trail 10-3 at the half. pack take the 13-3 lead. the skins need a spark. find it with big anthony armstrong's hands. in the end-zone 48 yards. the first td of his career. not the first time he has ever danced. redskins down just three. mcnabb hooks up with chris coolly 30 yards all the way to the pack 35. go coolly so good they are choking me up. within striking distance. set up a field goal. the pack with a chance to win it. one second left in regulation. for the game winner crosby, oh, no. left upright. we are going to overtime. the packers second possession in ot. second and five at the skins 24. aaron rogers picked by landry. and he forced a fumble in the first. now the huge int in ot and the skins are in business. graham ganeau from 33 yards out. he is your hero. we loved him in dave versus dave. we love him more now that the skins are 3-2. 16-13. the skins win. [ music ] >> unless y

the first time mcnabb goes back to play against his former tm. he says he thinks he should be cheered when he comes out of the tunnel for the first time. he should be. he is the greatest quarterback in the history that franchise. but you know some of those phillies fans are going to try to live up to their reputation and boo him endlessly. mcnabb took the eagles to five nfc championship games in eight years and holds nearly passing record in franchise history after 11 seasons in philadelphia. here in washington, mcnabb has been good, but not gat. and the team sat a crossroads this week. win and they even their record at 2-2. lose and they fall to 1-3. a lot of it will have to do with how well mcnabb plays. >> just excited about this opportunity, to give us a chan of getting back on track. obviously the last two weeks have been won that we're obviously upset about. and to step back out on the field and possibly put ourselves at 2-0 in the division. that's my focus right now. for all of us last week, we kind of feel embarrassed by the way we played

. >> number 5, donovan mcnabb. >>> and brotherly love. donovan mechanic nab receives a warm welcome in philadelphia and gets the last laugh. classy moment for the philadelphia fans. >> they swiftly booed him when he started the game. >> thank you for joining us for news 4 today. i'm euyang. >> good morning. i'm joe krebs. a live look outside. you can see from the bleary picture we have a lot of rain falling out there. you can see the glare of the headlights on the bridges and the mist. and we have rain falling around the recently. plus, it's kind of chilly on this monday morning. 52 degrees only. >> and it looks like our wonderful autumn weather was short-lived. it cold and dreary. >> eventually it will windy by afternoon, too. but as we said we do have wet weather out there. we're not going to pick up as much rain. not nearly as much rain as we had from nicole. that was upwards two and three inches throughout the area. folks, we have showers. they're making their way from southeast to northwest through the area. even some pockets of mode

many people are saying this game is michael vick versus donovan mcnabb, mcnabb traded from the eagles to the skins, also a mentor to vick and a player instrumental in bringing him to philly for a second chance, but if you ask both players, the focus should lie elsewhere. >> i don't look at it as vick versus mcnabb. i look at it as the washington redskins against the philadelphia eagles and that's the way that i'm sure they'll look at it just like we are. >> not me against donovan, not at all. not me against the redskins. it's the philadelphia eagles against the redskins and that's how you got to approach it. you can't get caught up in everything tate going on because, you know, we -- that's going on because, you know, we have no personal vendetta going on against each other. it's a divisional game and it's going to be rough and tough and i'm pretty sure they feel the same way. >> we know vick still has the wheels but he's got an arm, too. two subreceivers are a reason for his big success rating third and first in seeing touchdowns. redskins defense will certainly have their hands full

if i were making a superbowl run this year, i would want mcnabb. but the up side on vick appears to be limited. there you have it, in the final analysis philly may be a bigger city, but in this tale of a tape and in this weekend's showdown, it's advantage dc. because as those guys are about to find out, one town's trash is another town's treasure. >> so what do you think? do they boo them or they cheer them when he comes into phillies stadium? >> i would say there will be a lot of cheers. >> hopefully more cheers. classy. >> i think they'll cheer for him because they'll remember all of the great things he's done and

and reid hugging mcnabb after the game. and he quarterbacked there for 11 years and in the end it's a 17-12 win and it's a huge win for the redskins now standing at 2-2. we talked all week, mcnabb down played it, how much did it mean, yada yada yada. listen to what he had to say to his teams in the locker room. >> this is something we can feed off of going into the rest of the season. we're number one in the nfc east and we're going to stay up there. [ applause ] >> everybody makes mistakes in their lifetime and they made one last year so ... [ laughter ] >> great sound bite. here again is a great throw to cooley and that he beat the linebacker single coverage. but 2-2 for the redskins and they do have a tough game next week, the packers come here. but we'll worry about that on friday and we'll talk about that as the week continues. but for now celebrate as the redskins win. they are 2-2. allison called it a must-win and now they won so money is the prediction. >> no pressure. our redskins coverage will continue on air and

how will they treat the great donovan mcnabb. >> of course they will boo him. they don't believe in santa claus, right? >> but the all-time greatest eagle quarterback ever. >> i think donovan is the best they have ever had. but he is going to get booed, right? >> he is going to get booed. >> they shouldn't boo me but cheer me. >> donovan, you played there for 11 years. >> right. >> you know how they are. the american people know how they are. they will boo him on sunday. >> but an overall lack of respect. they didn't like him when he was there. 10, 11 years in the nfl. >> yeah. >> themajority of the time a hall of famer. they threw in the garbage receivers and still got it did done. >> you are going back that far back? >> that's his career. still got it down. no respect. >> i agree. but he will get booed. lucky there is no snowballs because they will throw them, too. that's what they do in philly all year round. welcome back to philadelphia donovan mcnabb. >> and mike tyson goes with wayne brady and bobby brown as they do a re price of his hit "every little ste
