NFL: McNabb hurt in Eagles' win over Panthers


By MIKE CRANSTON
AP Sports Writer

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Donovan McNabb limped to the locker room with a rib injury. Jake Delhomme was booed off the field.

The veteran quarterbacks had rough games for different reasons Sunday, putting both franchises in flux after the Philadelphia Eagles routed the Carolina Panthers 38-10.
A dominant performance by the Eagles thanks to Delhomme’s five turnovers was tempered by concerns about McNabb, after he walked gingerly to the locker room following his 3-yard touchdown run in the third quarter.
With the suspended Michael Vick watching from a luxury suite, Kevin Kolb finished the game at quarterback as the Eagles ran out the clock on a miserable day for Delhomme.
He was 7 of 17 for 73 yards with four interceptions and a lost fumble.
