Head coach Andy Reid said "don't bet" on quarterback Donovan McNabb playing this Sunday against the New York Giants.

McNabb, who Reid said was "sore" Tuesday morning, had an MRI on his groin, which he tweaked in Monday night's loss to the Cowboys. McNabb was waiting to see a specialist, so the results of the MRI were not yet known. Reid said he would update McNabb's status on Wednesday.

Coach Reid has not made a decision on who will start at quarterback this Sunday

As for who would start in place of McNabb, Reid said he was still in the process of deciding whether it would be Koy Detmer or Mike McMahon - who almost rallied the Eagles to a win Monday night.

Reid said McNabb hurt it a little when he ran for an eight-yard gain early in the fourth quarter. But most of the pain was the result of trying to make a tackle following free safety Roy Williams' interception return for a touchdown with 2:43 remaining in the game. McNabb ran to the sideline to get Williams, but was pushed to the ground by linebacker Bradie James.

McNabb played the next series, but he was sacked once and threw two wild, incomplete passes. He finished 19-of-34 for 169 yards with no touchdowns and the interception. It was only the second time this season he threw for fewer than 200 yards. The other time was the first meeting against Dallas on Oct. 9.

Despite the low passing totals, McNabb did rush for 22 yards, including an impressive nine-yard scramble in the first quarter which led to the team's first touchdown. He also rushed for a two-yard score in the second quarter and celebrated by doing the Michael Jackson moonwalk.
