What a day for Donovan McNabb and the Washington Redskins. McNabb received a standing ovation from the Eagles fans before the game started and then led the Redskins to a 17-12 victory.
The Philadelphia Eagles recruited McNabb in the 1999 draft where he spent his first 11 seasons. Donovan was the Eagles starting quarterback until he was traded to the Washington Redskins in 2010.

Tom Brady was named the NFL’s Comeback Player of the Year on Wednesday. The Pats QB received 19 votes from a nationwide panel of 50 sports writers and broadcasters who cover the NFL, beating Tampa Bay running back Carnell “Cadillac” Williams, who got 14.
The three-time Super Bowl winner and a finalist for AP Player of the Decade, Brady led New England to a 10-6 record and the AFC East title this season. He threw for 4,398 yards and 28 touchdowns. The season came just a year after the QB came back from a left knee injury that sidelined him for all but the first quarter of the 2008 opener.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — LeBron James’s 28 points Saturday keyed Cleveland’s 94-86 win over the NBA-worst New Jersey Nets.

Mo Williams, Anderson Varejao and Shaquille O’Neal also hit double figures for Cleveland.
The Nets, who have lost 11 of their last 12 games, got 22 points from Devin Harris and 20 from Brook Lopez.

The Broncos might have ended up with more than 350 yards of offense in Sunday’s 28-16 loss, but it’s the handful of yards that they couldn’t come up with that seem to bother the team most.
Yes, the short-yardage nightmare is back.
Much like they did in the first month of the season, the Broncos struggled most in the shortest of down-and-distance situations against Indianapolis, and failed runs and incomplete passes killed several promising drives.
The Broncos converted only 6 of 18 total third downs, and only one when they needed less than three yards for a first down.

Cleveland Browns defensive lineman C.J. Mosley is done for the season with a leg injury.
Mosley got hurt in the first quarter of Sunday’s loss to San Diego. The team placed Mosley on injured reserve, the fifth Cleveland defensive player to go on IR.
Browns coach Eric Mangini did not specify Mosley’s injury, but said the 26-year-old will likely have surgery. Mosley left the stadium on crutches and told some teammates he broke his ankle.
