About three weeks ago, Eagles fullback Leonard Weaver requested that he be able to watch Donovan McNabb pass the ball on first and goal situations from a recliner, but Andy Reid refused and made him watch from the sidelines like everyone else.

On Sunday, Reid finally caved in and gave Weaver a comfortable place to sit while the rest of his teammates squandered red zone chances in a 31-23 loss to the Chargers.

“If it was up to me, I’d rather be the one in there trying to score for us, but you know how Andy is,” Weaver said on Monday. “If he can’t run, then nobody will.”
